METHOD OF PRODUCTION OF IRON, COBALT OR NICKEL Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC C22B5/02 C22B23/02 C21B15/00 

FIELD: ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy; methods of production of iron, cobalt or nickel.

SUBSTANCE: the invention is pertaining to the field of ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy, in particular, to the method of production of iron, cobalt or nickel. The method provides for a mixing of oxides of the produced metals and halogenides of the metals, realization of the process in the container made out of the metal corresponding to the being reduced oxide, aging at heating and separation of products. Process is conducted in the installation, the reactionary volume of which is insulated from a contact to the aerosphere. The offered method allows to produce metals in the form of the individual crystals free from impurities, for example from carbon, and may be used both in a laboratory practice, and in a large-scale production.

EFFECT: the invention ensures production of metals in the form of the individual crystals free from impurities, for example carbon, and may be used both in a laboratory practice, and in a large-scale production.
