The solubilities of ammonium metavanadate (NH 4 VO 3 ) in (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 −H 2 O and Na 2 HPO 4 −H 2 O systems were measured in the temperature range from 298.15 to 338.15 K by the isothermal dissolution method. The experimental data indicate that the solubility of NH 4 VO 3 increases with the addition of Na 2 HPO 4 , while it first decreases and then increases with the addition of (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4 . The common ion effect and chemical equilibrium were used to explain the solubility tendencies. Two models, the Bromley−Zemaitis model and Pitzer model, were selected to correlate the solubilities of NH 4 VO 3 in the above systems. The parameters of the new model referring to four ion−ion pairs and one ion−molecule pair were obtained via the regression of the experimental data, and the results agreed well with the experimental values. The new chemical model was then applied to analyze the main vanadium-bearing species distribution in the systems mentioned above. All of this work will develop the thermodynamics for an industrial application in the precipitation of NH 4 VO 3 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
