Abstract
In this paper a new process for separation of molybdenum from tungsten is described. When sodium tungstate solution containing molybdenum is treated with alkali sulfide in the proper condition, the molybdenum is transformed into the thiomolybdate and the tungsten is present as tungstate. When the solution is brought into contact with activated carbon, the molybdenum contained in the solution can be adsorbed quantitatively and the tungsten remaining in the raffinate can be recovered. The new process has advantages such as good results in removing molybdenum, little loss of tungsten and easy operation.
