Zusammenfassung:A method for the recovery of vanadium from a vanadium containing feed stream, the method comprises: subjecting the vanadium containing feed stream to an acid leach step to form a slurry including a pregnant leach solution that comprises dissolved vanadium and a solid residue; passing the product of the leach step to a solid/liquid separation step to produce a pregnant leach solution that comprises dissolved vanadium; contacting the pregnant leach solution with a reducing agent to reduce one or more species in the pregnant leach solution; passing the pregnant leach solution to a precipitation step in which the solution pH is increased to precipitate a vanadium product; and recovering the vanadium product from the solution.
