چکیده
The present research paper deals with the oxidation process of molybdenum ore. The main target of the present study is the up-gradation of MoO3 from roasted molybdenum ore by a leaching process without waste generation. The most important application of hydrometallurgical processing is the leaching process of the ore and it is the primary process to make pure metal from ore. The present investigations optimize the following experimental parameters to improve the concentration of MoO3 as well as the separation of copper, iron and zinc in roasted molybdenum ore: effect of acid concentration, temperature, pulp density and leaching time were studied systematically. The temperature study was carried out at 550-595 °C for the oxidation process. The XRD result shows that oxidation process of molybdenum ore and SEM pictures were taken for particles before and after the oxidation process at 585 °C for 360 min.

Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance of ZnO Nanorods Coupled by Two-Dimensional α-MoO3 Nanoflakes under UV and Visible Light Irradiation.
We exploit the utilization of two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum oxide nanoflakes as a co-catalyst for ZnO nanorods (NRs) to enhance their photocatalytic performance. The 2D nanoflakes of orthorhombic α-MoO3 were synthesized through a sonication-aided exfoliation technique. The 2D MoO3 nanoflakes can be further converted to substoichiometric quasi-metallic MoO3-x by using UV irradiation. Subsequen...
متن کاملMolybdenum Isotopic Composition of Iron Meteorites, Chondrites and Refractory Inclusions
Introduction. Recent Mo isotopic studies of meteorites reported evidence for differences in isotopic compositions for whole rocks of some primitive [1-3] and differentiated meteorites [2,4], relative to terrestrial materials. Enrichments of rand p-process isotopes of up to 3-4 ε units (ε unit = parts in 10) over s-process dominated isotopes are the most prominent features. Certain types of pres...

The renewed JMTR will be started from the later half of JFY2012, and it is expected to contribute to many fields. As one of effective uses of the JMTR, JAEA has a plan to produce Mo by (n, ) method ((n, γ)Mo production), a parent nuclide of Tc. Tc is most commonly used as a radiopharmaceutical in the field of nuclear medicine. In case of Japan, the supply of Mo depends only on imports from fore...
متن کاملp-i-n heterojunctions with BiFeO3 perovskite nanoparticles and p- and n-type oxides: photovoltaic properties.
We formed p-i-n heterojunctions based on a thin film of BiFeO3 nanoparticles. The perovskite acting as an intrinsic semiconductor was sandwiched between a p-type and an n-type oxide semiconductor as hole- and electron-collecting layer, respectively, making the heterojunction act as an all-inorganic oxide p-i-n device. We have characterized the perovskite and carrier collecting materials, such a...
متن کاملFacile growth of monolayer MoS2 film areas on SiO2
Areas of single-layer MoS2 film can be prepared in a tube furnace without the need for temperature control. The films were characterized by means of Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence, low-energy electron diffraction and microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and mapping. Transport measurements show n-doped material with a mobility of 0.26 cm V−1 s−1. Molybdenum disulfide, MoS2, ha...
