Abstract
- Sustainable utilization of Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript>-containing metallurgical slag has attracted great interest in industries and the academic community in recent years. As the primary subsystem, the CaO-SiO<subscript>2</subscript>-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> ternary system plays an essential role in recovering Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> from metallurgical slag. However, few thermodynamic data have been reported for Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript>-containing metallurgical slag systems, which greatly limits the sustainable utilization of Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript>. Therefore, based on the current phase diagram, thermodynamic and crystal structure data, the thermodynamic modeling of the CaO-SiO<subscript>2</subscript>, CaO-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript>, and SiO<subscript>2</subscript>-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> binary systems and CaO-SiO<subscript>2</subscript>-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> ternary system. The thermodynamic parameters of CaO-SiO<subscript>2</subscript>-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> system over the whole composition range are optimized with computer coupling of phase diagrams and thermochemistry approach. The modified quasi-chemical model and polynomial expansions of the excess Gibbs energy were used to simulate the liquid slag and solid solution, respectively. The solid phases are treated as stoichiometric compounds. A thermodynamic description of the CaO-SiO<subscript>2</subscript>-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> ternary system and its Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript>-containing binary subsystem was given. The optimized phase diagram of the CaO-SiO<subscript>2</subscript>-Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> ternary system is in good agreement with the experimental data. The thermodynamic database generated in this study can be used to predict the high-temperature metallurgical recovery of Sc<subscript>2</subscript>O<subscript>3</subscript> from calcia- and silica-containing slags.
