Waste Tungsten Oxide Recovering Ammonium Metatungstate (AMT)
Waste tungsten oxide , including the scrapped, the not qualified which must be reworked to improve the quality indicators of tungsten trioxide, blue tungsten oxide and others. During the production, using process, or in the case of large inventories, tungsten oxide may not reach a certain specific standards due to various reasons, or directly scrapped. However, these waste tungsten oxide still contains a high content of tungsten, since the tungsten is a rare metal element, thus a more effective approach to reuse waste the tungsten is turning waste into treasure. Ammonium metatungstate (AMT) is an important raw material in tungsten smelting industry, catalyst for petrochemical industry and other fields. The ways of waste tungsten oxide as raw materials to produce ammonium metatungstate are many; however, since tungsten trioxide and blue tungsten oxide are not soluble or slightly soluble in ammonia water, which only soluble in caustic soda or soda ash. Therefore, the traditional...
