I am not sure now what are trying to get from Approval processes, if you are trying to access the metadata this won't be possible as this is not available on the Metadata API.

This document is your best friend :)

 

http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_list.htm

 

What you are looking for are in the 4 objects listed there

 

ProcessInstanceAn instance of a single, end-to-end approval chain.
ProcessInstanceHistoryHistory of changes to a process instance.
ProcessInstanceStepOne step in an approval workflow process instance.
ProcessInstanceWorkitemA pending approval request to a specific user.
