Description:
This report covers the second phase of a three phase effort evaluating (1) characterization of particulate control of a molybdenum sulfide roasters, (2) assessment of sulfur dioxide abatement alternatives for nonferrous smelting and, in particular, for molybdenum roasting, and (3) pilot testing of the magnesia slurry process for sulfur dioxide control. It describes the results of a survey and evaluation of selected sulfur dioxide abatement alternatives applicable to molybdenum sulfide roasting. These processes include: Limestone FGD, dual alkali, magnesium oxide, Wellman-Lord, sulf-X, CIBA-GEIGY nitrosyl-sulfuric acid process, CIBA-GEIGY SO2 sorption-steam stripping process, endako, chiyoda thoroughbred 121, U.S. Bureau of Mines citrate, sodium carbonate throwaway, and dowa basic aluminum sulfate.
