Abstract
Vanadium(v) and chromium (Cr) are important strategic resources due to their outstanding physicochemical properties. Due to their similar physical and chemical properties, V and Cr are often associated and coexist in many minerals. This review highlights the significance of V and Cr extraction and separation from high-chromium vanadium slag, emphasizing the key separation techniques. Current strategies for vanadium–chromium separation include separation during the extraction process, that is selective extraction of one of the elements from the slag and co-extraction of vanadium and chromium into solution followed by separation of vanadium and chromium from the solution. Both strategies are pivotal for optimizing the extraction process and enhancing industrial applications. This comprehensive review provides insights into the separation methods, addressing the challenges and advancements in the field. The elucidation of the importance of vanadium and chromium, coupled with a detailed analysis of high-chromium vanadium slag and current separation techniques, contributes to the utilization of vanadium–titanium-bearing magnetite resources with a high content of chromium and also evolves the knowledge in this critical area.
期刊介绍:
Green Chemistry is a journal that provides a unique forum for the publication of innovative research on the development of alternative green and sustainable technologies. The scope of Green Chemistry is based on the definition proposed by Anastas and Warner (Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice, P T Anastas and J C Warner, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1998), which defines green chemistry as the utilisation of a set of principles that reduces or eliminates the use or generation of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture and application of chemical products. Green Chemistry aims to reduce the environmental impact of the chemical enterprise by developing a technology base that is inherently non-toxic to living things and the environment. The journal welcomes submissions on all aspects of research relating to this endeavor and publishes original and significant cutting-edge research that is likely to be of wide general appeal. For a work to be published, it must present a significant advance in green chemistry, including a comparison with existing methods and a demonstration of advantages over those methods.
