Participants

Reactant 2

HCID 10112Calcium Carbonate

HCID 26052Sodium tungstate

Product 2

HCID 10340Sodium Carbonate

HCID 1232647790-75-2

Procedure

reacting the sodium tungstate in the leach liquor with the calcium carbonate at a temperature of at least about 130° C. to form sodium carbonate and solid calcium tungstate in the slurry, while providing sufficient carbon dioxide overpressure to the slurry to convert sodium carbonate in the slurry to sodium bicarbonate and thereby promote the conversion of sodium tungstate to calcium tungstate, thereby forming a product slurry containing a sodium bicarbonate liquor and a solid calcium tungstate concentrate,

Workup

customof at least about 130° C.
