Evaluation of the acid leaching technique for recovery of U3O8 and ThO2 in niobium/tantalum slag

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2023
This study presented the recovery of uranium oxide and thorium oxide from aluminothermic slag from the metallurgical processing of columbite – a niobium/tantalum mineral with the presence of U3O8 and ThO2 – from a mining-industrial facility.

Mechanochemical synthesis of ZrB2-SiC-ZrC nanocomposite powder by metallothermic reduction of zircon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aluminium and magnesium were used in the M/ZrSiO4/B 2O3/C (M = Al, Mg) system to induce a mechanically induced self-sustaining reaction (MSR). Aluminium was not able to reduce the system to the desired products, and the system became amorphous after 10 h

The layer by layer selective laser synthesis of ruby [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the work, features of the layer-by-layer selective laser synthesis (SLS) of ruby from an Al2O3-Cr2O3 mixture are considered depending on the irradiation power, the laser beam traverse speed, the height and amount of the backfill of powder layers.

The Reduction of Group 6–8 Transition Metal Oxides with Hydrogen—From Ore Smelting to Reaction Pathways#

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 28, Issue 30, October 22, 2025.
As the reduction of transition metal oxides by coal poses a significant climate risk, the use of alternative reducing agents such as hydrogen is becoming increasingly important. This review summarizes the current knowledge of the reduction pathways of transition metal oxides from groups 6 to 8.

Thermodynamics of Aluminothermic Processes for Ferrotitanium Alloy Production from Bauxite Residue and Ilmenite

open access: yesMetals
Titanium oxide is a major component of bauxite residue (BR) with a high value, but it is often an unwanted element in common BR reuse options such as cement or iron production.

Reactive Interaction and Wetting of Fe‐ and Mn‐Containing, Secondary AlSi Alloys with Manganese Oxide Ceramic Filter Material for Fe Removal

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 17, September 2025.
Fe‐ and Mn‐containing AlSi alloys undergo aluminothermic reaction with Mn oxide in sessile‐drop and crucible experiments forming poor‐wetting Al2O3 while Mn enriches in the alloy. Primary Fe‐containing particles are preferentially attached to the Mn oxide.
