Review Niobium Hydrometallurgy

A review on extractive metallurgy of tantalum and niobium

All these studies focused more on the separation of tantalum and niobium from acidic solutions, with neither discussing alkaline-based leach options nor the upstream and downstream operations accompanying Ta and Nb hydrometallurgy. The present review aims to fulfil the identified missing gaps and to contribute towards the lack of information on ...

Hydrometallurgical Separation of Niobium and Tantalum: A …

A mixture of pure Ta2O5 and Nb2O5 was dissolved using two different fluxes, namely NH4F·HF and Na2HPO4/NaH2PO4·H2O. Selective precipitation and ion exchange were used as separation techniques. Selective precipitation using p-phenylediamine in a fluoride matrix resulted in the isolation of 73(3)% tantalum accompanied by 23(5)% niobium. A separation …

Extraction of niobium and tantalum from ferrocolumbite

Pressure acid leaching was used to extract niobium and tantalum from a ferrocolumbite ore. The leaching was carried out in a pressure reactor using hydrofluoric acid as leachant. Various parameters, such as temperature, reaction time, HF concentration, stirring speed, particle size and solid-to-liquid ratio in the leaching process, were optimized.

Review Solvent extraction technology for the separation …

The niobium-loaded organic solution was scrubbed with a solution containing 0.9 M niobium. The niobium was then stripped with water (Maiorov and Nikolaev, 2002). The solubility of 1-OCL is 5% which is much higher than that of 2-OCL of < 0.1% (w/w). This is probably the main reason why 2-OCL, instead of 1-OCL, is selected for commercial application.
