This report proffers a comprehensive cost evaluation of the production of Osmium from anode sludge of gold or nickel. The process involves dissolving the anode sludge obtained during the extraction of gold or nickel in aqua regia, which dissolves platinum and gold, leaving silver, which is later removed by nitric acetate and lead carbonate.
This is led by removing other minerals and obtaining a residue containing Osmium and ruthenium. Adding chlorine changes Osmium into osmium tetroxide, which is separated from the ruthenium tetroxide by adding caustic soda. The crude osmium metal is then produced by precipitating its tetroxide with aluminium chloride and reducing the thus formed complex by hydrogen.
