Water iron oxides

Processing of bauxite to produce alumina produces volumes of red muds, which contain principally water, iron oxide, silica, and the oxides of titanium, chromium, vanadium, and aluminum. The solids in this mixture eventually settle to a relatively high solids content sludge, so that a moderately sized holding pond may be used for many years. [Pg.378]

Anhydrous FeF is prepared by the action of Hquid or gaseous hydrogen fluoride on anhydrous FeCl (see Iron compounds). FeF is insoluble in alcohol, ether, and ben2ene, and sparingly soluble in anhydrous HF and water. The pH of a saturated solution in water varies between 3.5 and 4.0. Low pH indicates the presence of residual amounts of HF. The light gray color of the material is attributed to iron oxide or free iron impurities in the product. [Pg.202]

This reaction is first conducted on a chromium-promoted iron oxide catalyst in the high temperature shift (HTS) reactor at about 370°C at the inlet. This catalyst is usually in the form of 6 x 6-mm or 9.5 x 9.5-mm tablets, SV about 4000 h . Converted gases are cooled outside of the HTS by producing steam or heating boiler feed water and are sent to the low temperature shift (LTS) converter at about 200—215°C to complete the water gas shift reaction. The LTS catalyst is a copper—zinc oxide catalyst supported on alumina. CO content of the effluent gas is usually 0.1—0.25% on a dry gas basis and has a 14°C approach to equihbrium, ie, an equihbrium temperature 14°C higher than actual, and SV about 4000 h . Operating at as low a temperature as possible is advantageous because of the more favorable equihbrium constants. The product gas from this section contains about 77% H2, 18% CO2, 0.30% CO, and 4.7% CH. ... [Pg.419]

Metal—Water Processes. The steam-iron process, one of the oldest methods to produce hydrogen, iavolves the reaction of steam and spongy iron at 870°C. Hydrogen and iron oxide are formed. These then react further with water gas to recover iron. Water gas is produced by reaction of coal with steam and air. [Pg.427]

In atomization, a stream of molten metal is stmck with air or water jets. The particles formed are collected, sieved, and aimealed. This is the most common commercial method in use for all powders. Reduction of iron oxides or other compounds in soHd or gaseous media gives sponge iron or hydrogen-reduced mill scale. Decomposition of Hquid or gaseous metal carbonyls (qv) (iron or nickel) yields a fine powder (see Nickel and nickel alloys). Electrolytic deposition from molten salts or solutions either gives powder direcdy, or an adherent mass that has to be mechanically comminuted. [Pg.182]

Reforming is completed in a secondary reformer, where air is added both to elevate the temperature by partial combustion of the gas stream and to produce the 3 1 H2 N2 ratio downstream of the shift converter as is required for ammonia synthesis. The water gas shift converter then produces more H2 from carbon monoxide and water. A low temperature shift process using a zinc—chromium—copper oxide catalyst has replaced the earlier iron oxide-catalyzed high temperature system. The majority of the CO2 is then removed. [Pg.83]

Some of the important parameters in the Bnchamp process are the physical state of the iron, the amount of water used, the amount and type of acid used, agitation efficiency, reaction temperature, and the use of various catalysts or additives. When these variables are properly controlled, the amine can be obtained in high yields while controlling the color and physical characteristics of the iron oxide pigment which is produced. [Pg.262]

Water. Based on the overall balanced equation for this reaction, a minimum of one mole of water per mole of nitro compound is required for the reduction to take place. In practice, however, 4 to 5 moles of water per mole of nitro compound are used to ensure that enough water is present to convert all of the iron to the intermediate ferrous and ferric hydroxides. In some cases, much larger amounts of water are used to dissolve the amino compound and help separate it from the iron oxide sludge after the reaction is complete. [Pg.262]

Iron Reduction. The reduction of nitrophenols with iron filings or turnings takes place in weakly acidic solution or suspension (30). The aminophenol formed is converted to the water soluble sodium aminopheno1 ate by adding sodium hydroxide before the iron-iron oxide sludge is separated from the reaction mixture (31). Adjustment of the solution pH leads to the precipitation of aminophenols, a procedure performed in the absence of air because the salts are very susceptible to oxidation in aqueous solution. [Pg.310]

Tubular Fixed-Bed Reactors. Bundles of downflow reactor tubes filled with catalyst and surrounded by heat-transfer media are tubular fixed-bed reactors. Such reactors are used most notably in steam reforming and phthaUc anhydride manufacture. Steam reforming is the reaction of light hydrocarbons, preferably natural gas or naphthas, with steam over a nickel-supported catalyst to form synthesis gas, which is primarily and CO with some CO2 and CH. Additional conversion to the primary products can be obtained by iron oxide-catalyzed water gas shift reactions, but these are carried out ia large-diameter, fixed-bed reactors rather than ia small-diameter tubes (65). The physical arrangement of a multitubular steam reformer ia a box-shaped furnace has been described (1). [Pg.525]

In addition to the requirement to conform to steam purity needs, there are concerns that the boiler water not corrode the boiler tubes nor produce deposits, known as scale, on these tubes. Three important components of boiler tube scale are iron oxides, copper oxides, and calcium salts, particularly calcium carbonate [471-34-1]. Calcium carbonate in the feedwater tends to produce a hard, tenacious deposit. Sodium phosphate is often added to the water of recirculating boilers to change the precipitate from calcium carbonate to calcium phosphate (see also Water, industrial water treatment). [Pg.361]

In another process, strontium sulfate can be converted to strontium carbonate direcdy by a metathesis reaction wherein strontium sulfate is added to a solution of sodium carbonate to produce strontium carbonate and leave sodium sulfate in solution (6). Prior to this reaction, the finely ground ore is mixed with hydrochloric acid to convert the calcium carbonates and iron oxides to water-soluble chlorides. [Pg.474]

Ferrovanadium can also be prepared by the thermite reaction, in which vanadium and iron oxides are co-reduced by aluminum granules in a magnesite-lined steel vessel or in a water-cooled copper cmcible (11) (see Aluminumand aluminum alloys). The reaction is initiated by a barium peroxide—aluminum ignition charge. This method is also used to prepare vanadium—aluminum master alloys for the titanium industry. [Pg.383]

There are several means by which boiler water can become highly concentrated. One of the most common is iron oxide deposition on radiant wall tubes. Iron oxide deposits are often quite porous and act as miniature boilers. Water is drawn into the iron oxide deposit. Heat appHed to the deposit from the tube wall generates steam, which passes out through the deposit. More water enters the deposit, taking the place of the steam. This cycle is repeated and the water beneath the deposit is concentrated to extremely high levels. It is possible to have 100,000 ppm of caustic beneath the deposit while the bulk water contains only about 5—10 ppm of caustic. [Pg.264]

Foulants enter a cooling system with makeup water, airborne contamination, process leaks, and corrosion. Most potential foulants enter with makeup water as particulate matter, such as clay, sdt, and iron oxides. Insoluble aluminum and iron hydroxides enter a system from makeup water pretreatment operations. Some well waters contain high levels of soluble ferrous iron that is later oxidized to ferric iron by dissolved oxygen in the recirculating cooling water. Because it is insoluble, the ferric iron precipitates. The steel corrosion process is also a source of ferrous iron and, consequendy, contributes to fouling. [Pg.271]

Iron oxides are stable pigments iasoluble ia most solvents but usually soluble ia hydrochloric acid. Those not soluble ia HCl can be fused with potassium hydrogen sulfate, KHSO, and then dissolved ia water. [Pg.452]
