Title:

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROCESSING PARTICULATE METALLIC TRANSITION METAL

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/054653

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

Systems and methods for processing particulate metallic transition metal (e.g., iron) are generally described. Certain methods comprise heating and/or pressing particulate metallic iron to form a briquette having a maximum cross-sectional dimension of greater than or equal to 20 millimeters, wherein at least 80 volume percent of the particles of the particulate metallic iron has a maximum cross-sectional dimension of less than or equal to 100 microns. Certain systems comprise a chamber comprising baffles; a first valve configured to allow flow of particulate metallic transition metal and a gas into the chamber; a second valve configured to allow flow of the gas out of the chamber; and a third valve configured to allow flow of particulate metallic transition metal out of the chamber.
