Description |
Vanadium is recovered directly from vanadiferous ores and indirectly from titaniferous magnetite ores, siltstone and uraniferous sandstones. Vanadium bearing slag
during pig iron production is been main source for vanadium. Vanadium is recovered as
ferro-vanadium or vanadates and vanadium pentoxide. Vanadium is soft and very ductile
metal. This is available in forms of plate, sheet, foil, billet, bar, rod, tube and wire.
Vanadium has wide usage in different sectors. These are (i) fusion reactors, (ii) as
alloying element in steel, titanium base alloys for aerospace applications, (iii) catalysts,
(iv) pigments, (v) frits (vi) glass, (vii) ceramics, (viii) chemicals and (ix) batteries for
storage of electricity for off peak times and (x) power packs for electricity powered
vehicles. Vanadium in steel has improved castability, rollability, and reduced roll wear,
relative insensitivity to finish rolling temperature, good weldability and use in as-forged
conditions. Vanadium has imparted strength, toughness and reliability within wide range
of temperatures.
