What is Vanadium Powder Used For? Vanadium powder is essential across a range of advanced industries. It is widely used in the production of high-strength steel alloys, aerospace components, and energy storage systems like vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). VRFBs are a critical technology for renewable energy storage and grid management, allowing for efficient large-scale energy storage. To ensure optimal performance in these applications, vanadium powder must have precise particle size distribution. However, due to its density, screening vanadium powder to fine sizes between 20 and 45 microns can be challenging for conventional vibratory screening machines and ultrasonic sieving machines due to their low energy frequencies and screen mesh blinding.
Contract Manufacturing Experience
Elcan Industries has significant amount of experience helping companies in various sectors, including steel production, aerospace, and energy storage, optimize their vanadium powder screening processes. With our state-of-the-art Hi-Sifter sieving machine technology, we can and have screened vanadium powder down to 20 microns and finer where necessary, while maintaining yields of over 98% and commercial scale throughput rates over long periods of time. The Hi-Sifter advanced sieving technology ensures that companies vanadium powder meet the stringent requirements of industries that rely on precise particle sizes.
The unique design of our Hi-Sifter prevents screen blinding from occurring, allowing for efficient screening of high-value vanadium powder. Whether it’s for steel alloys, VRFBs, or aerospace applications, our screening process and technology maximizes the yield and ensures the purest quality of the final product.
