TECHNOLOGY METALS
DESCRIPTION
Selenium is usually a companion of Sulfur-containing ores, of the metals Copper, Lead, Zinc, Gold and Iron. When these ores are roasted, the solid Selenium dioxide gathers in the fly ash, or later in the sulfuric acid production as acid. In small amounts, Selenium is non-toxic. It melts at 221 °C and boils at 685 °C.
CHARACTERISTICS
Selenium is a metalloid (an element intermediate in properties between the metals and the nonmetals). The gray, metallic form of the element is the most stable under ordinary conditions; this form has the unusual property of greatly increasing in electrical conductivity when exposed to light.
The morphologies, physical properties and sizes of nanomaterials depended on several reaction parameters, including synthesis techniques, starting materials, use of surfactants/additives, reaction temperature, pH of the solution, choice of substrates, reaction time, reaction media and nature of solvent. The as-prepared nanomaterials were characterized by various techniques such as field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive
APPLICATION & USE
Selenium is essential for all life forms. Selenium compounds are therefore offered as a dietary supplement and processed into feed and fertilizer additives. In the glass industry, it is used for decolorizing green glasses and for producing red-colored glasses. Selenium is used in • Photo-cells • Semiconductors • X-ray detectors • Batteries • Dyeing and bleaching in the glass industry • Thin-film solar cells • Food supplements • Animal feed.

The selenium yeast market is valued at US$ 261.4 Million in 2022 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% during the forecast period (2022 to 2032), to reach a value of US$ 375.9 Million by 2032. Selenium is quite rare. Even more so than the rare Silver. Since it primarily comes with copper, the available amount of Selenium depends on the Copper production. Worldwide only about 2,500 – 3,000 tons of Selenium are produced a year. In recent years, the price of Selenium has increased significantly.
