Extraction of Vanadium Oxide from Boiler Fuel Ash

Abstract:

Fuel oil used in power plants contain metal impurities like Vanadium. After combustion, this metal remains in boiler fuel ash in the form of oxide. In this research, extraction of Vanadium oxide from fuel ash has been investigated. Two processes were used for this purpose. A pyro- hydrometallurgy and a hydrometallurgy process. In the pyro-hydrometallurgy process, using sodium carbonate, salt roasting of the ash followed by water leaching was carried out. Vanadium was then precipitated as ammonium vanadates which on heating decomposed and vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) was obtained. In the hydrometallurgy process, the ash was dissolved in sodium hydroxide. Vanadium oxide was then recovered from solution. Effects of various parameters in each case were investigated and the optimum condition for maximum recovery was determined.

Vanadium oxide surfaces and supported vanadium oxide nanoparticles

The information obtained from the characterization of vanadium oxide single crystal surfaces is related to the study of vanadia nanoparticles supported on silica and alumina thin films, model systems for the so-called ‘‘supported monolayer vanadia catalysts’’. It is found that these particles have properties similar to V2O3 surfaces, where the topmost V ions are involved in vanadyl groups and h...

Thermophysical Properties of Ash Deposit on Boiler Heat Exchange Surfaces

A brief overview on boiler tubes ash deposit characterization and thermophysical properties of deposits are given. The structure of an ash deposit on the heat exchange surface of a boiler is usually non-uniform. The thickness of the deposit increases with time and during this process chemical reactions and sintering of ash particles may lead to structural changes. Therefore the thermal conducti...
