Thermodynamic and experimental study on carbothermal reduction of JSC-1A lunar regolith simulant for metal and metalloid production
Review state
needs review
The result supported the thermodynamic equilibrium analysis forecasting SiC as a stable intermediate product of carbothermal reduction of SiO2.
Thermodynamic equilibrium analysis showed complete conversions of Fe2 O3 to Fe or Fe(g) and up to 90 % conversion of SiO2 to Si or Si(g) at lunar surface pressure and relatively low temperatures
