Abstract:
In this paper, we suggest a novel recycling process for hard metal sludge that does not use ammonium paratungstate. Ammonia, which in the conventional recycling process is essential for removing sodium and crystallized tungstate, was not used in the novel process. Instead of ammonia, acid was used to remove the sodium and crystallized tungstate resulting in the formation of tungstic acid (H2WO4). Tungsten powders were successfully synthesized by hydrogen reduction of the tungstic acid through H2O decomposition, WO3 to WO2 reduction, and tungsten metal formation. The tungsten powders prepared from tungstic acid were spherical in shape and had a higher sintering density than the facet-shaped tungsten powders prepared from tungsten oxide. The spherical shape of the tungsten powders enhanced their sinterability and resulted in an increase in the size of grains. This is a result of the high diffusion rate of the atoms along the particle surfaces. Despite having a higher density, the hardness of the sintered tungsten was lower than that of tungsten from tungsten oxide. High energy milling effectively reduced grain size and improved hardness. The hardness of the tungsten prepared from milled tungstic acid was enhanced to a value (max. 471 HV) higher than the best previously reported value (389 HV). In sum, tungsten can be hardened, thereby improving its sinterability and reducing grain size, with tungstic acid prepared using the proposed recycling process.

Abstract:
Abstract Decomposition promoting factors and extraction process of tungsten carbide and tungstic acid powders in the zinc decomposition process of tungsten scraps which are composed mostly of tungsten carbide and cobalt were evaluated. Zinc volatility was suppressed by the enclosed graphite crucible and zinc volatilization pressure was produced in the reaction graphite crucible inside an electric furnace for ZDP (Zinc Decomposition Process). Decomposition reaction was done for 2hours at 650°, which 100% decomposed the tungsten scraps that were over 30 mm thick. Decomposed scraps were pulverized under 75μm and were composed of tungsten carbide and cobalt identified by the XRD (X-ray Diffraction). To produce the WC(Tungsten Carbide) powder directly from decomposed scraps, pulverized powders were reacted with hydrochloric acid to remove the cobalt binder. Also to produce the tungstic acid, pulverized powders were reacted with aqua regia to remove the cobalt binder and oxidize the tungsten carbide. Tungsten carbide and tungstic acid powders were identified by XRD and chemical composition analysis.

Abstract:
Tungstic oxide is prepared with pure ammonium paratungstate in the air. And then Tungsten powder is obtained with tungstic oxide through deoxidation in the hydrogen gas (Rate of purity: 99.99 %, dew point: -40 °C), and tungsten powder is oxidized in the air. Tungstic oxide is reduced into tungsten powder in the hydrogen gas. The above routes are repeated. The samples are characterized by the laser particle size distribution measuring instrument and the electron probe scan instrument. The results show that submicron tungsten powder is obtained through circulatory oxidation twice and reductiuon three times. The volume percentage of the particle size distribution of submicron tungsten powder between 0.1 μm and 0.5 μm is 94.81 %.

The excellent gas sensing properties of the tungsten oxides have been manifested first of all in nanostructure and 1D, and 2D open structured forms. For optimal performance the sensing layer substrates should be of large specific surface. In this paper we report on electrospinning – a candidate for fabrication of large specific surface tungsten oxide nanofibers. Fibrous tissues doped with tungstic acid hydrate (H2WO4.H2O) and tungsten oxide one third hydrate (WO3.1/3H2O) has been created and characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectroscopy in order to learn about the changes the materials suffer during the process.

  The effect of various concentrations (3, 9, 27, 81, and 243 mg/kg) of tungsten (W) on growth performance, biochemical constituents and tungsten and molybdenum (Mo) contents in wheat was observed. Lower doses (up to 9 mg/kg) of tungsten showed promotory effects whereas higher doses retarded. An increment in growth, biomass, chlorophyll and carbohydrate contents was observed. Tungsten contents in root and shoot showed a very strong linear dependence on the soil applied W contents. Mo contents in plant tissue showed an increase with an increase in the W contents in plant tissue up to a threshold after which it showed an abrupt decrease. The activity of peroxidase enzyme decreased with lower application of W. Higher administration of tungsten (27–243 mg/kg) resulted in increased total phenol, free proline and activity of enzyme peroxidase.

Abstract:
Abstract Typical oxidation process of tungsten scraps was modified by the rotary kiln with oxygen burner to increase the oxidation rate of tungsten scraps. Also to accelerate the solubility of solid oxidized products, the hydrothermal reflux method was adapted. By heating tungsten scraps in rotary kiln with oxygen burner at around 900° for 2hrs, the scraps was oxidized completely. Then oxidized products (WO3 and CoWO4) was fully dissolved in the solution of NaOH by hydrothermal reflux method at 150° for 2hrs. The dissolution rate of oxidized products was increased with increasing the reaction temperature and concentration of NaOH. And then CaWO4 and H2WO4 could be generated from the aqueous sodium tungstate solution. Ammonium paratungstate (APT) also could be produced from tungstic acid using by aqueous ammonium solution. The morphologies (cubic and plate types) of APT was controlled by the stirring process of purified solution of ammonium paratungstate.

Abstract:
In the present study, we fabricated tungsten trioxide nanoparticles (WO3 NPs) from a tungsten complex [W(C13H10NO)3] of ligand N-salicylideneaniline with tungstic acid as the precursor. Nanoparticles were synthesized using the direct thermal decomposition method. These nanoparticles were evaluated for cytotoxicity influence on human breast cancer MCF7 cell line (adenocarcinoma). The observed results suggested that WO3 can destroy 50 % of viable cells after 24 h of incubation at 37 °C. Based on these results, we concluded that WO3 nanoparticles could be a potential drug carrier candidate against human breast cancer cells based on the amount of the drug. In addition, WO3 nanoparticles exhibited significant antimicrobial and antifungal activity.

Abstract:
The composite material tungsten fiber-reinforced tungsten (Wf/W) addresses the brittleness of tungsten by extrinsic toughening through introduction of energy dissipation mechanisms. These mechanisms allow the release of stress peaks and thus improve the materials resistance against crack growth. Wf/W samples produced via chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) indeed show higher toughness in mechanical tests than pure tungsten. By utilizing powder metallurgy (PM) one could benefit from available industrialized approaches for composite production and alloying routes. In this contribution the PM method of hot isostatic pressing (HIP) is used to produce Wf/W samples. A variety of measurements were conducted to verify the operation of the expected toughening mechanisms in HIP Wf/W composites. The interface debonding behavior was investigated in push-out tests. In addition, the mechanical properties of the matrix were investigated, in order to deepen the understanding of the complex interaction between the sample preparation and the resulting mechanical properties of the composite material. First HIP Wf/W single-fiber samples feature a compact matrix with densities of more than 99% of the theoretical density of tungsten. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis further demonstrates an intact interface with indentations of powder particles at the interface-matrix boundary. First push-out tests indicate that the interface was damaged by HIPing.

Abstract:
As the core component of the diffusion cathode, the performance of porous tungsten matrix material will directly affect the output performance and life of microwave source. Therefore, the preparation of porous tungsten matrix is the key process of making a cathode material. In this paper, the industrial tungsten powder was used as raw material, whose particle size was modulated by fluidic classification firstly. Then via cold isostatic pressing and hydrogen sintering in high temperature, the porous tungsten sintered body was obtained. Finally, by the process of copper infiltration, machining and copper removal, the porous tungsten matrix was achieved. The result showed that compared with raw material tungsten powder, the classified tungsten powder’s particle size distribution was narrowed and its tap density obviously increased, indicating that it had better particle stacking performance. Setting the temperature between 1900°C and 2050°C the high temperature hydrogen sintering experiment was conducted, and it was found that the volume shrinkage ratio of tungsten sintered body increased with the sintering temperature, and correspondingly, its total porosity decreased from 24.4% at 1900°C to 20.8% at 2050°C. It was characterized by MIP (mercury intrusion porosimetry) that at high temperature between 1950~2050°C, the porous tungsten matrix with an open porosity of 21±1%, 1.30~1.60μm average pore size, a close cell ratio less than 1% and the skeleton strength greater than 150MPa was obtained. Thus this porous tungsten matrix is an ideal material to be applied to highly reliable diffusion bariated tungsten cathode manufacturing.

Abstract:
Tungsten and most of its compounds remain one of the least regulated substances. As the potential toxicity of tungsten has been reported, the stereotypes about tungsten are gradually being broken. Areas with intense magmatic hydrothermal activity are likely threatened by geothermal tungsten (up to 1037 μg/L of tungsten was detected in the geothermal waters from a magmatic hydrothermal system in Tibet, Daggyai), and the geothermal developers should be cautious during the utilization of geothermal resource. This paper reviews the studies on transformation of aqueous tungsten species, distribution of tungsten in geothermal waters, and critical geochemical processes (or parameters) controlling geothermal tungsten concentrations. The mobility of aqueous tungsten depends on environmental pH, its complexation with sulfide, and its sorption onto Fe(III) oxides/oxyhydroxides. More attention still needs to be paid to environmental geochemistry of tungsten, in view that there are limited literatures reporting the thermodynamic properties of tungsten compounds at high temperatures and the models delineating the geochemical behavior of tungsten.

This work makes attempt to solve the difficulty in flotation separation of tungsten minerals from Yaogangxian tungsten ore. Systematical analysis of mineralogical properties of tungsten ore was performed. A process for tungsten flotation from tungsten ore was developed for exploitation of tungsten resources. The major valuable element in the ore is tungsten, and the grade of tungsten is 0.22%. The distribution of scheelite is nonuniform, and it is majorly distributed in 0.02~0.32 mm. The intergrowth and inclusion of scheelite occur with other minerals such as calcite, diopside, grossularite, and fluorite. The liberation of scheelite reaches 92.40% for -0.074 mm accounting for 75.48%. Process factors including Na2CO3, flotation collector, modified sodium silicate solution, and lead nitrate are studied, and the optimized conditions are Na2CO3 1600 g/t, GY-107 (640 g/t for roughing and 240 g/t for scavenging), modified sodium silicate solution 4200 g/t, and lead nitrate 400 g/t. The open-circuit and closed-circuit flotation processes for tungsten separation are designed, and it is verified for effective separation of tungsten minerals. For the closed-circuit flotation, the grade of tungsten concentrate is 7.30%, while the recovery reaches 85.89%. This work provides technical insights into tungsten separation from tungsten ore.

Abstract:
Tungsten is recognized as a critical metal due to its unique properties, economic importance, and limited sources of supply. It has wide applications where hardness, high density, high wear, and high-temperature resistance are required, such as in mining, construction, energy generation, electronics, aerospace, and defense sectors. The two primary tungsten minerals, and the only minerals of economic importance, are wolframite and scheelite. Secondary tungsten minerals are rare and generated by hydrothermal or supergene alteration rather than by atmospheric weathering. There are no reported concerns for tungsten toxicity. However, tungsten tailings and other residues may represent severe risks to human health and the environment. Tungsten metal scrap is the only secondary source for this metal but reprocessing of tungsten tailings may also become important in the future. Enhanced gravity separation, wet high-intensity magnetic separation, and flotation have been reported to be successful in reprocessing tungsten tailings, while bioleaching can assist with removing some toxic elements. In 2020, the world’s tungsten mine production was estimated at 84 kt of tungsten (106 kt WO3), with known tungsten reserves of 3400 kt. In addition, old tungsten tailings deposits may have great potential for exploration. The incomplete statistics indicate about 96 kt of tungsten content in those deposits, with an average grade of 0.1% WO3 (versus typical grades of 0.3–1% in primary deposits). This paper aims to provide an overview of tungsten minerals, tungsten primary and secondary resources, and tungsten mine waste, including its environmental risks and potential for reprocessing.

FGMs with density gradient are of great interest in field of dynamic high-pressure physics. In this paper, tungsten particles reinforced epoxy resin composites, and FGMs with density gradient were prepared by calendering technique. Microstructures of tungsten-epoxy composites with various tungsten contents were analyzed, and the density distribution of the FGMs was characterized. The results show that the distribution of tungsten particles in tungsten-epoxy composites is homogeneous, and the combination of tungsten particles with epoxy matrix is good. The density of tungsten-epoxy composites varies from 1.26gcm-3 to 4.0gcm-3, and the thickness of each layer is about 200μm. Tungsten-epoxy FGMs with density gradient were obtained by laminating thin layers of tungsten-epoxy composites with different tungsten contents. The highly enough bonding strength between these transition layers and good parallelism were achieved. The density distribution of the tungsten-epoxy FGMs can meet the demand of the power function equation of density and thickness.

Abstract:
AbstractNanopowder tungsten oxide and metallic tungsten are obtained via pyrolysis of ammonium metatungstate. Two methods are used for the synthesis of tungsten oxide: the use of a fibrous matrix and pyrolysis of aerosol particles. Tungsten oxide particles are formed during the pyrolysis in air. Metallic tungsten nanoparticles are obtained via subsequent thermal reduction of tungsten oxide in hydrogen. The structure and morphology of the samples are studied with X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Tungsten nanopowders with average sizes from 7 to 30 nm are obtained depending on synthesis temperature. The electrochemical characteristics of electrodes coated with tungsten nanoparticles are studied with cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectroscopy, and galvanostatic charge–discharge methods. An electrode with W nanoparticles exhibited a specific low-frequency capacitance of about 90 F/g due to thin tungsten oxide film on the surface of tungsten nanoparticles.

Abstract:
As a toxic element, tungsten (W) in elevated concentrations, originating from human activities or geological sources, poses a severe threat to the environment. However, there has been a lack of robust remediation techniques focusing on aqueous tungsten contamination with varying initial concentrations, because only recently have the toxicity and the environmental threat of tungsten been fully realized. In this study, the removal of tungsten from an aqueous solution by hydrocalumite was investigated for the first time. Systematic removal experiments were carried out at designated contact time, temperature, and initial tungsten concentration. The results showed that hydrocalumite is capable of effectively removing tungsten under various conditions, especially at high initial tungsten concentrations, with the maximum uptake capacity being up to 1120.5 mg (tungsten)/g (hydrocalumite). The mechanisms of tungsten removal were studied based on the measured chemical compositions of the solution samples and their PHREEQC simulations as well as the solid sample characterization by XRD, SEM–EDX, and XPS. At low initial tungsten concentrations (below 1 mmol/L), anion exchange between the tungsten in solution and the Cl in the hydrocalumite interlayers played a critical role in tungsten removal. At high initial tungsten concentrations (higher than 5 mmol/L), the removal of W from the solution was solely caused by the precipitation of scheelite (CaWO4), facilitated by the substantial release of Ca2+ from hydrocalumite dissolution. At moderate tungsten concentrations (1–5 mmol/L), however, both mechanisms were responsible for the uptake of tungsten, with scheelite precipitation being more important. Hydrocalumite is promising for wide use in the treatment of high-tungsten natural waters or wastewaters.

Abstract:
For the future fusion reactor, tungsten is the main candidate material as the plasma-facing material. However, considering the high thermal stress during operation, the intrinsic brittleness of tungsten is one of the issues. To overcome the brittleness, tungsten fiber reinforces tungsten composites (Wf/W) developed using extrinsic toughening mechanisms. The powder metallurgy process and chemical vapor deposition process are the two production routes for preparing Wf/W. For the powder metallurgy route, due to technical limitations, previous studies focused on short random distributed fiber-reinforced composites. However, for short random fiber composites, the strength and reinforcement effect are considerably limited compared to aligned continuous fiber composites. In this work, aligned long tungsten fiber reinforced tungsten composites have been first time realized based on powder metallurgy processes, by alternately placing tungsten weaves and tungsten powder layers. The produced Wf/W shows significantly improved mechanical properties compared to pure W and conventional short fiber Wf/W.

Abstract:
Violet tungsten oxide is prepared with pure ammonium paratungstate in the argon gas. Tungsten powder is obtained with violet tungsten oxide through deoxidation in the hydrogen gas (Rate of purity: 99.99 %, dew point: -40 °C), and tungsten powder is oxidized in the air. Tungsten oxide is reduced with tungsten powder in the hydrogen gas. The samples are characterized with the laser particle size distribution measuring instrument and field-emission scanning electron microscope. The results show that ultrafine tungsten powder is obtained through circulatory oxidation twice and reduction three times. The percentage of the particle size distribution of ultrafine tungsten powder is 95.73 % between 0.1 μm and 1.0 μm.

Abstract:
Tungsten is a refractory metal that is used in a wide range of applications. It was initially perceived that tungsten was immobile in the environment, supporting tungsten as an alternative for lead and uranium in munition and military applications. Recent studies report movement and detection of tungsten in soil and potable water sources, increasing the risk of human exposure. In addition, experimental research studies observed adverse health effects associated with exposure to tungsten alloys, raising concerns on tungsten toxicity with questions surrounding the safety of exposure to tungsten alone or in mixtures with other metals. Tungsten is commonly used as an alloy with nickel and cobalt in many applications to adjust hardness and thermal and electrical conductivity. This review addresses the current state of knowledge in regard to the mechanisms of toxicity of tungsten in the absence or presence of other metals with a specific focus on mixtures containing nickel and cobalt, the most common components of tungsten alloy.

Abstract:
Abstract Tungsten carbide-cobalt hard metal scrap was recycled to obtain high purity spherical tungsten powder by a combined hydrometallurgy and physical metallurgy pathway. Selective leaching of tungsten element from hard metal scrap occurs at solid / liquid interface and therefore enlargement of effective surface area is advantageous. Linear oxidation behavior of Tungsten carbide-cobalt and the oxidized scrap is friable to be pulverized by milling process. In this regard, isothermally oxidized Tungsten carbide-cobalt hard metal scrap was mechanically broken into particles and then tungsten trioxide particle was recovered by hydrometallurgical method. Recovered tungsten trioxide was reduced to tungsten particle in a hydrogen environment. After that, tungsten particle was melted and solidified to make a spherical one by RF (Ratio Frequency) thermal plasma process. Well spherical tungsten micro-particle was successfully obtained from spent scrap. In addition to the morphological change, thermal plasma process showed an advantage for the purification of feedstock particle.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus expresses five aldehyde oxidoreductase (AOR) enzymes, all containing a tungsto-bispterin cofactor. The growth of this organism is fully dependent on the presence of tungsten in the growth medium. Previous studies have suggested that molybdenum is not incorporated in the active site of these enzymes. Application of the radioisotope 99Mo in metal isotope native radioautography in gel electrophoresis (MIRAGE) technology to P. furiosus shows that molybdenum can in fact be incorporated in all five AOR enzymes. Mo(V) signals characteristic for molybdopterin were observed in formaldehyde oxidoreductase (FOR) in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)-monitored redox titrations. Our finding that the aldehyde oxidation activity of FOR and WOR5 (W-containing oxidoreductase 5) correlates only with the residual tungsten content suggests that the Mo-containing AORs are most likely inactive. An observed W/Mo antagonism is indicative of tungstate-dependent negative feedback of the expression of the tungstate/molybdate ABC transporter. An intracellular selection mechanism for tungstate and molybdate processing has to be present, since tungsten was found to be preferentially incorporated into the AORs even under conditions with comparable intracellular concentrations of tungstate and molybdate. Under the employed growth conditions of starch as the main carbon source in a rich medium, no tungsten- and/or molybdenum-associated proteins are detected in P. furiosus other than the high-affinity transporter, the proteins of the metallopterin insertion machinery, and the five W-AORs.

Abstract:
As a metal of strategic value, tungsten plays an important part in civil and military applications. Currently, China is the biggest tungsten producer all over the world, and the metallic smelting technologies for tungsten are well established. However, the harmless recovery and treatment procedures for tungsten residue remain rather underdeveloped. The treatment of tungsten residue generally includes the recovery of valuable metals (e.g., scandium, tantalum, and niobium) and the solidification of toxic elements (e.g., arsenic, lead, and chromium), which may control the transfer of these elements and metals. If treated improperly, the resource of tungsten residue may be wasted, and potential environmental risks could arise. Therefore, the safe disposition of tungsten residue has become the limit factor and an urgent problem to be solved for the sustainable development of tungsten-related industries. In this regard, we reviewed the industrial background of tungsten and the composition and toxicity characteristics of tungsten residue. In addition, particular attention was paid to the harmless utilization processes and technologies for tungsten residue, which were then systematically compared in terms of the applicable situations as well as their advantages and shortcomings. Finally, the development trend for the harmless utilization of tungsten residue was discussed, and some proposals for further studies were provided.
