Lead production during

Experimental conditions and initial rates of oxidation are summarized in Table V. For comparison, initial rates of dry oxidation at the same temperature and pressure of oxygen predicted by Equation 9 are included in parentheses. The predicted dry rate, measured dry rate, and measured wet rates are compared in Figure 2. The logarithms of the initial rates of heat production during wet oxidation increase approximately linearly (correlation coefficient = 0.92) with the logarithm of the partial pressure of oxygen and lead to values of In k = 2.5 and r = 0.9, as compared with values of In k = 4.8 and r = 0.6 for dry oxidation at this temperature. [Pg.435]

Domestic lead metal production rose at an annual rate of 1.3% between 1990 and 1996, going from 1.33 million metric tons to a record high of 1.43 million metric tons. Primary lead production declined at an annual average rate of 3.2% during this time period, dropping from 404,000 metric tons in 1990 to... [Pg.381]

Cadmium, as cadmium oxide, is obtained mainly as a by-product during the processing of zinc-bearing ores and also from the refining of lead and copper from sulfide ores (USPHS 1993). In 1989, the United States produced 1.4 million kg of cadmium (usually 0.6 to 1.8 million kg) and imported an additional 2.7 million kg (usually 1.8 to 3.2 million kg). Cadmium is used mainly for the production of nickel-cadmium batteries (35%), in metal plating (30%), and for the manufacture of pigments (15%), plastics and synthetics (10%), and alloys and miscellaneous uses (10%) (USPHS 1993). [Pg.36]

In some major reactions, the iron oxide is the starting material for the actual catalyst which is active iron metal. Quite often both the metal and its oxide can catalyse the reaction, but the activity and selectivity of the metal is greater. Furthermore, the oxide catalyst may be reduced to some intermediate product during the reaction, particularly a reaction involving H2 and high temperature. This may lead to loss of catalytic activity as the intermediate may be a less suitable catalyst than the starting oxide or the actual metal. To avoid this occurrence, the oxide is frequently prereduced , i.e. converted to the metal by a thermal/reduction pretreatment in a preliminary step. [Pg.519]
