Characterization of Chemical Composition of Ores and Concentrates (Id 123)
No current offer!
Within the framework of a project dealing with the extraction of Rare Earth Metals, three ores enriched with these elements are prepared and the leach solutions resulting therefrom are provided for testing a new extraction agent. The major challenge is the exact characterization of the ores and the concentrates obtained from them. For a successful accomplishment of this task, the appropriate choice of an optimal analytical method for the respective element and an optimal digestion method are of decisive importance.
Main tasks:
- Literature research
- Testing of different digestion procedures
- Characterization of composition of samples with different analytical methods (FRA, AAS, MLA, ICP-OES, ICP-MS)
Department: Metallurgy and Recycling
Requirements
- Bachelor of Science in Chemistry (or equivalent)
- Safe handling of chemicals
- Good knowledge of English
- Own initiative and teamwork
