The principle for the separation is based on selective complexation. In specific, V(V) can be complexated by dithiocarbamate to form VO(R1R2NCS2)3 precipitate, leaving Cr(Ⅲ) remained in the acidic solution. Then the reclamation of V and Cr from VO(R1R2NCS2)3 precipitate and Cr(Ⅲ)-bearing solution can be reached by decomplexation and neutralization, respectively. The kinetics of the complexation reaction was studied. In addition, the precipitation ratio of vanadium reached 97% and the loss of chromium was less than 4% after process optimization. The complexing agent could be regenerated with a high ratio of 99.5%. The method was successfully applied to treating chromium-vanadium-bearing slag produced in conventional vanadium production industry. Vanadium and chromium could be extracted from the slag in the form of calcium vanadate and Cr2O3 product with a purity of over 98%.展开更多

And a hot /warm roll-forming process（ RFP） adopting partially induction heating to 700- 1 000℃ was carried out to fabricate LTUR. The deformation behaviors in the forming process and microstructure of LTUR have been investigated.Mechanical properties and fracture mechanism of the LTUR after hot / warm RFP have been systematically discussed. Moreover,the results are compared with those obtained in cold RFP. Mechanical properties of the LTUR deformed above the critical transformation temperature（ A_（c3）） show high performance characteristics with marked fatigue resistance and superior toughness. Upon increasing the heating temperature from 700 to 900 ℃,the initial coarse ferrite-pearlite structure transform into equiaxed ultrafine ferrite（ 1- 3 μm） and precipitates such as（ Nb,Ti）（ C,N） are uniformly distributed in the matrix. The average dislocation density of the specimens after hot rollforming at heating temperature of 900 ℃ decreases dramatically compared with those of the specimens subjected to the cold RFP. Furthermore,a typical characteristic of ductile fracture mechanism and the high impact energy are more convinced that the specimens deformed above 900 ℃ have obtained an optimal combination of strength and toughness.展开更多
