The solubility of nickel ferrite in an aqueous solution of boric acid was studied by varying the pH at the temperatures ranging from 25°C to 320°C. A flow-through autoclave system was specially designed and fabricated to measure the solubility of Fe in hydrothermal solutions under high temperature and pressure. The performance of this flow-through system was directly compared with the conventional static state technique using a batch-type autoclave system. The stability of fluid velocity for the flow-through autoclave system was verified prior to the solubility measurement. The influence of chemical additives, such as boric acid and H2, on the solubility of nickel ferrite was also evaluated.
