1 Extractive Metallurgy of Rhenium: A Review Caelen D. Anderson, MCSM Dr. Patrick R. Taylor Dr. Corby G. Anderson Kroll Institute For Extractive Metallurgy George S. Ansell Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering
2 Introduction A variety of processing technologies exist for recovery from both primary and secondary sources of rhenium Currently, there are no known primary rhenium deposits, thus, the method in which primary rhenium is produced is dependent on the commodity of which it is a byproduct, e.g., copper, molybdenum, uranium, etc In addition, focus on the recovery of rhenium from secondary sources, such as alloy scraps and catalysts, is continually growing This presentation presents a review of both primary and secondary processing technologies for the recovery of rhenium
3 Why is rhenium so special? Extraordinarily high melting point: (3,180 C) exceeded only by W and C A refractory metal (chemically and physically stable at high temperatures), but the only such metal not to form carbides Extremely dense: (21.02 g/cm 3 ) A density exceeded only by iridium, osmium and platinum No ductile-to-brittle transition temperature: (It remains ductile) malleable or being able to be deformed plastically without fracturing from Absolute Zero to its melting point High modulus of elasticity: (Extremely stable and rigid under stress) great tensile strength rhenium has the third-highest modulus of elasticity of any metal High resistance to creep: i.e., the tendency to move slowly or deform permanently when under stress Exceptionally resistant to chemical poisoning: Rhenium is particularly resistant to poisoning from nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus Great attribute for use in catalysts
4 Crustal Abundance The concentration of rhenium in the earth s crust is rather small parts per billion The only documented occurrence of rhenium as a mineral, Rheniite (ReS 2 ), was found near the Russian Kudryavyi volcano (Kuril Islands) Typically associated with molybdenum-copper porphyry deposits in concentrations of up to 0.2% Currently, there are no producers of primary rhenium Byproduct of Cu and Mo industries
5 Worldwide Rhenium Reserves and Production by Country (Polyak 2011)
6 Historical Rhenium Metal Powder Price from : Use of rhenium in petrochemical catalysts begins : Amount of rhenium used in petrochemical catalysts doubles : Dissolution of USSR leads to an increased supply of rhenium in the market 1999, 2003, 2006: Appearance of new generation turbine blades containing rhenium (Metal Pages 2012 Year 2012; Polyak 2011 Years ; Naumov 2007 Years ; Blossom 1998 Years )
7 Rhenium Production as a Byproduct of Molybdenum Processing The principal molybdenum end product is molybdenum tri-oxide (MoO 3 ) the basic raw material for most commercially used products of molybdenum The method in which rhenium is produced is dependent on the production method of MoO 3 Pyrometallurgical Roasting Hydrometallurgical Pressure Oxidation
8 Rhenium Recovery from Pyrometallurgical Effluent Streams During molybdenum roasting rhenium present in the molybdenum concentrate is oxidized to rhenium heptoxide (Re 2 O 7 ) 2ReS O 2(g) = Re 2 O 7(g) + 4SO 2(g) (ΔG 298K = kcal) This volatile rhenium exits in the flue gas stream and is scrubbed to make perrhenic acid Re 2 O 7(g) + H 2 O = 2HReO 4(aq) (ΔG 298K = kcal) After which the rhenium is recovered using Ion Exchange Solvent Extraction Carbon Adsorption

11 IX Processes: The Original Kennecott Process Perrhenic Acid produced ph brought to 10 to remove Fe Aqueous rhenium adsorbs on anionic exchange resin Stripped using HCl Perchloric acid and hydrogen sulfide are then added to this solution to precipitate rhenium as Re 2 S 7 Re 2 S 7 is redissolved in ammonia and hydrogen peroxide Crystallized as ammonium perrhenate (NH 4 ReO 4 ) (Sutulov 1965)
12 IX Processes: KGHM Ecoren Process Re from copper concentrate smelter flue gas Adsorbed on weakly basic anionic exchange resin Eluted using ammonia solution Crystallized as APR using vacuum recrystallization Capacity to produce 4-5 tonnes/year (Chmielarz and Litwinionek 2010)
13 SX Processes: Kazakhstan In the Zhezkhazgan deposit, copper concentrates produced can contain up to 30g/t of rhenium Re recovered from Cu Electro-smelting Volatile Re 2 O 7 is scrubbed with water Sent to SX circuit using TAA extractant Stripped using ammonium hydroxide Up to 98.5% pure APR product produced (Abisheva et al. 2011)

15 Kennecott: Molybdenum Autoclave Process US Patent #: 6,149,883 Molybdenite flotation concentrate is leached with either sodium or potassium hydroxide elevated temperature ( C) elevated pressure ( psig) Rhenium present is primarily recovered in the SX step Followed by IX quaternary amine functional groups
16 Freeport McMoRan Process Patent App US # A1 That the rhenium rich PLS can originate from an active copper leach, stockpile copper leach, acid blowdown stream, or a leach of molybdenite roaster flue fumes and dusts. loaded stream is sent to an activated carbon column circuit for adsorption of the aqueous rhenium. Stripped using Na/NH3 solution and T = C (Waterman et al. 2009)
17 MoReLeach Process Aus Patent #: Molybdenum/rhenium concentrate in closed reactor vessel atmospheric temperature and pressure ReS2+ 9.5NaClO + 2.5H2O = ReO4-(aq) + 9.5NaCl + 2SO42-(aq) + 5H+ Re Rich solution is separated from the undissolved residue Sent for a metal separation stage such as solvent extraction, ion exchange, etc (Sutcliffe et al. 2012)
18 Volcano Mining: Kudriavy, Russia In the mid-1990 s, Rheniite (ReS2) discovered that the Kudriavy Volcano Russian researchers found that gases exiting the volcano contained considerable amount of rhenium g/t Re as ReCl5 and ReF5 Currently, working on using zeolites as the adsorption medium for the rhenium rich fumarole gases Operational on pilot scale Inherent Danger of Worksite Environment
19 Recovery from Uranium Hydrometallurgy Rhenium is soluble in carbonate leach liquors Found adsorbed on IX columns in Palanga, Texas Stripped from columns using ammonium nitrate Precipitated as Re2S7 using H2S (Goddard 1996)

27 Future Research Opportunities Most of the processes involved in the production of primary and secondary rhenium, involve the use of elevated temperatures elevated pressures large amounts of reagents combination of the three Opportunities for improvement exist
28 Future Research Opportunities Roasting is an elevated Through innovation in the temperature, exothermic scrubbing equipment used process which requires (Fluidized Bed Reactor) temperatures of C recoveries have now increased Tight temperature control Early scrubbing attempts of flues gases were relatively inefficient to approximately 80% 90% reported capturing roughly 25% of the rhenium present
