The hydrogen precipitation of vanadium from aqueous solutions

It has been found that sodium vanadate in aqueous solutions, can he reduced by gaseous hydrogen, at temperatures of 300 - 400°F, and in the presence of a nickel catalyst, and precipitated as an oxide of lower valence. The following reaction has been proposed: 2 VO₃[superscript -] + 2H₂ → V₂0₃ •+ 2O...
