INTRODUCTION
Molybdenum occurs naturally in the earth’s crust as molybdenite and wolfenite, and
is an important element in many biochemical reactions, including nitrogen fi xation. In
industrial processes, such as the operation of boilers and cooling towers, molybdenum,
in the form of sodium molybdate, is used as an environmentally safe corrosion
inhibitor.
