Tungsten in the Steam Turbine Blades

turbine blade picture

A turbine blade is the essential part in a steam turbine. Turbine blades are subjected to high temperature and high pressure steam, and they are subjected to large bending moments during operation. The moving blades in high speed operation are also subjected to high centrifugal force; the blades in the wet stream areaare subject to electrochemical Corrosion and water droplets impinge on moving blades are also subject to very complex exciting forces. Therefore, the steel for blade should meet the following requirements: high temperature mechanical properties and anti-creep property; high resistance to vibration damping; high structural stability; good corrosion and erosion resistance.

High-purity Ammonium Paratungstate Preparation Process

high-purity ammonium paratungstate picture

Ammonium paratungstate hydrate is an intermediate for the production of tungsten metal, tungsten-containing catalysts, tungsten-based hard materials (such as tungsten carbide) or sputtering targets. The preparation is carried out mainly by digesting or melting a slag containing tungsten concentrate or tungsten with acid or base, followed by purification, and the purification stage includes a precipitation process and a liquid-liquid extraction. The purified solution is usually concentrated by evaporation to finally crystallize the ammonium paratungstate hydrate.

tungsten-trioxide nanofilm picture

In recent years, research on tungsten trioxide (WO3) nanofilm has attracted more and more attention. WO3 is an n-type semiconductor material with a narrow band gap (2.4-2.8eV), is capable of responding to visible light, and has similar characteristics to TiO2 photocatalyst, namely stable, non-toxic, photo-resistant, low-cost and low-priced. The potential of the belt is high and the photo-generated holes are highly oxidizing.

Recovering Vanadium and Tungsten from Vanadium-Titanium-Based Waste Denitration Catalyst

catalyst picture

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are recognized as one of the major sources of atmospheric pollution, including combustion fumes and automobile exhaust. Monolithic vanadium-titanium-based catalysts have been widely used for the removal of NOx from combustion fumes or automobile exhaust, and NOx is removed by selectively catalyzing the reduction of NOx by NH3 to N2. The catalyst uses TiO2 as a carrier (usually 80-90% of the total mass), V2O5 as an active component (1-2%), and WO3 as a co-catalyst (5-10%).

A New Dissolution Process for Ammonium Paratungstate / Tungsten Trioxide

tungsten trioxide dissolving process image

At present, ammonium paratungstate can completely dissolve for 1~4 hours at a temperature of 120~160°C with high concentration of ammonia, some enterprises promote the decomposition of ammonium paratungstate and even through high temperature roasting to get tungsten oxide, then ammonium tungstate solution is dissolved in ammonia water, and some enterprises use sodium hydroxide and other strong alkali to dissolve ammonium paratungstate. The ammonium tungstate solution is regenerated from sodium tungstate solution, the process is complex and costly. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new low-cost and simple dissolution process for ammonium paratungstate / tungsten trioxide.

Electric Hydrolysis of Tungsten Trioxide /Tungsten Oxide

electric hydrolysis of tungsten trioxide /tungsten oxide image

Tungsten trioxide is an important type of N type semiconductor oxide. It is widely used in chemical sensors, photocatalysis, energy conversion system and other fields. When WO3 is used as negative material, its structure and volume will change greatly during charge / discharge process. It destroys the stability of electrode materials and eventually leads to the cyclic performance of the electrode. As a result, the actual capacity is often lower than the theoretical capacity.
