Metallothermic Reactions - Past, Present and Future

Fathi Habashi

Metallothermic reactions are batch processes in which both reactants are solids. There are a few exceptions, however, where at the reaction temperature the reducing metal is a liquid and the other reactant is a gas. In both cases numerous steps are involved and that is why it has been challenged in the future by fused salt electrolysis.
