With the rapid development of industry, although it has high economic benefits, but the damage of the environment is on the increase every year. Due to ecological environment worsening and water resource shortage, the human living environment will face the serious challenge. The ecological environment is fragile, and the task of ecological construction and environmental protection is still heavy. And therefore countries pay more and more attention to the recovery of metals. Japan set up a special committee for tungsten recovery in 1975, which is called WR for short. The commission estimates that 31.3 tons of tungsten can be recycled while producing 100 tons of carbide. Or we can say that is the 31.3 percent recovery, the actual recovery rate in Japan is 10% and the United States is 20%. The equipment for chlorination pulping process is relatively simple, and it has a wide adaptability of raw materials, at present, this method is considered as one of the most promising methods. In recent years, ultrafine tungsten powder extracted from the waste tungsten bar through the chemical vapor migration has aroused general concern. Chemical vapor migration is a chemical process used to produce high quality, high-performance, solid materials. The process is often used in the semiconductor industry to produce thin films. Microfabrication processes widely use this way to deposit materials in various forms, including monocrystalline, polycrystalline, amorphous, and epitaxial.

The first is to use chloridize the cutting of both ends of the clamping head of tungsten bar while vertical sintering at environment of 950 ℃. Chloride will be supplied to reduction tubes with argon, and then being deoxidized by hydrogen. Chlorine is loaded in industrial bottle, and mixed with argon after dehydrating by concentrated sulfuric acid. Deoxidizing hydrogen with palladium asbestos at the temperature of 350 ℃, then drying it by silica gel and molecular sieve. Finally, gathering the ultrafine tungsten powder obtained by the reaction in powder collecting pipe. After purifying and absorbing hydrogen chloride, exhaust gas which contains hydrogen would be emitted and combustion. The final wolfram powder would have 0.64% oxygen, 0.075% chlorine, and 0.033% chlorinated residue.

Adopting chemical vapor migration methods can also produce the same quality of wolfram powder. Although the aluminum content is higher, all other metal impurities are mostly below or equal to the ultrafine wolfram powder. On the one hand, it can greatly reduce industrial costs. On the other hand, it helps to promote the application of wolfram powder.

In the context of spaceflight, a satellite is an artificial object which has been intentionally placed into orbit. Such objects are sometimes called artificial satellites to distinguish them from natural secondary planets such as moon. The world's first artificial secondary planet, the Sputnik 1, was launched by the Soviet Union in 1957. In the whole solar system, except for Mercury and Venus, the other planets are all natural objects. Wolfram is a rare non-ferrous metal in the world, and its annual output is very low. In addition, it is very versatile and mainly applied in the casting material. Nowadays, the total number of natural objects is at least 160. For example, in the solar system, the sun is a fixed star, and the earth and other planets orbit around the sun, and the moon and other planets orbit around the earth, these planets are called natural secondary planet.

Not long ago, there has been a weapon called satellite powered gun, which is also known as "God's scepter." This is an extraterrestrial combat device which is still being researching and developing. Theoretically, this weapon can shoot to the ground with tungsten bar through its track, and it can cover any range of the entire planet. Tungsten metal is lustrous and silvery white in color, and does not occur naturally (it has an abundance of 1 ppm in the earth's crust). Attack that originates from space, not only has the capability to destroy large tracts of ground buildings, but also destroys hundreds of meters deep underground bunkers. Powered gun can hit the ground by gravity, and it can be accelerated to the speed of 3403 m / sec which is the same as the destruction of nuclear weapons, but it would not cause catastrophic nuclear radiation.

In the movie "GI Joe 2", it is mentioned that the "silos" can be considered as a geostationary secondary planet, tungsten bar will do elliptical motion around the earth with "silos" in the absence of thrust. However, according to the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy of landing of this type of tungsten products does not exceed its own potential energy of the near-Earth orbit, and its potential energy in the near-Earth orbit cannot exceed kinetic energy of its rocket launching. So, in fact floor  kinetic energy of tungsten bar is probably less than a quarter of the rocket fuel energy, and therefore, such weapons are currently still in the theoretical condition.
