Abstract
To process vanadium-containing residues, the residues are leached in an aqueous slurry with introduction of SO.sub.2, the undissolved solids are removed. To effect a processing which is simple, economical and ecologically satisfactory, vanadium content is precipitated as a tetravalent vanadium compound from the sulfate solution at a pH from 7 to 9 by an addition of alkali metal hydroxide and the precipitate is removed from the alkali metal sulfate solution.
