Abstract
The oxidation of molybdenum sulphide concentrate by water vapour at high temperatures has been investigated experimentally. The progress of the reaction was followed by a thermogravimetric analysis unit and the exit gas was analysed to determine its composition. The conditions under which the water vapour oxidation process takes place without forming volatile molybdenum oxides have been determined.
