UNIT IV : Learning Objective: Extraction of light metals like megnishium and titanium from various sources and methods
MAGNESIUM: Production of a hydrous Magnesium chloride from sea water and magnesite. Electro-winning practice and problem, refining, Pidgeon and Hansgrig processes.
TITANIUM: Upgrading of ilmenite, chlorination of titania, Kroll’s process. Refining.
UNIT V : Learning Objective: Purification of Uranium ore and production of reactor grade UO2 and U.
URANIUM: Acid and alkali processes for digestion of uranium ores, Purification of crude salt, Production of reactor grade UO2 and uranium.
UNIT VI : Learning Objective: Study of simplified flow sheets of various metals and review of NF Industry in India Simplified flow sheets for the extraction of nickel, tungsten and gold. Review of non-ferrous metal industries in India.
(Assessment: The student should be evaluated based on the assignments and objective tests. The student’s analytical abilities (with special focus on academically weak students) should be tested periodically in classes by giving problems). Emphasis should be given by conducting tutorial classes at the end of each unit.
