Description/Abstract:
PROCESSING CONSIDERATIONS INFLUENTIAL IN SELECTION OF A PROCESS AND SEVERAL POTENTIAL CONTINUOUS REDUCTION PROCESSES HAVING ADVANTAGES OVER BATCH REDUCTION PROCESSES AND DISCUSSED. PROCESSES CONSIDERED ARE: ELECTRODEPOSITION PROCESSES USING SOLID AND MOLTEN TRICHLORIDE FEED, LI REDUCTION OF THE TRIBROMIDE, MG REDUCTION OF MOLTEN BROMIDE OR CHLORIDE, SOLID CA REDUCTION OF BROMIDE OR CHLORIDE, TRICHLORIDE REDUCTION IN METALLIC VAPORS, CA REDUCTION OF MOLTEN TRICHLORIDE, AND REDUCTIONS OF TRIFLUORIDE.
