Patent Trade Mark Attorneys Level 10, 10 Barrack Street SYDNEY NSW 2000 L Complete specification for the invention entitled "A process for the production of titanium dioxide".
The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it known to me:- 1 2061U/gs t A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF TITANIUM DIOXIDE o oo *n 0 0 #000 4s~ 0004 00 a* 0 00~sol *i 0n This invention relates to a process for the production of titanium dioxide by the sulfate process, in which the liquid accumulating during washing of the hydrolyzate is fractionated and the dilute fractions are returned to the process while the relatively concentrated waste acid is fed to a recycling process.
It is known that, apart from raw material and process costs, the economy of titanium dioxide production 15 is being increasingly influenced by the costs involved in treatment of the waste acid and by government-imposed wastewater levies. Accordingly, various processes have already been proposed with a view to reducing treatment costs by increasing the concentration of the waste acid or by directly recycling waste acid to the process.
According to US 4,502,976, waste acid of high concentration is separated from dilute washing acid through careful monitoring of the sulfuric acid concentration in the liquid accumulating during washing of the hydro- 25 lyzate. This dilute washing acid may advantageously be concentrated, optionally in part, by waste heat in a first evaporation stage, According to DE-C 2,729,755, ilmenite is digested with a mixture of 62 to 75% sulfuric acid, recovered by concentration of waste acid by evaporation and separation of the metal sulfates, and at least 95% pure sulfuric acid and the digestion cake is dissolved with water and part of the waste acid formed during the 0000 O 0 0 4 0400 0 u 0904 a 0 0 t 0 f* 0 a 000400 0 0
S
Le A 26 808 lahydrolysis of titanyl sulfate, However, this process is Sspecially designed for the use of ilmenite as raw material, in addition to which narrow limits are imposed by the metal sulfates, particularly chromium sulfate, recycled with the waste acid, Another maj~or disadvantage of this process is that the TiO 2 production process is seriously impaired by the very high proportion of waste acid (20 to 30%A) used to dissolve the digestion cake. If the quantity of sulfuric a acid used to digest the raw material is correspondingly reduced, a lower yield of TiOSO 4 is obtained when the autothermal discontinuous digestion reaction is carried out on an industrial scale, If, on the other hand, the 4,4 H2* HSC 4 TiO 2 ratio is kept constant during the digestion reaction, such a high H 2 S0 4 ;Ti0-2 ratio is obtained in the titanyl sulfate solution through the waste acid used to dissolve the digestion cake that the hydrolysis yield and the TiO2 pigment properties are adversely affected, Accordingly, the problem addressed by the present invention was to provide a process by which it would be possible, both with ilmenite and with titanium slag as raw material, to obtain a maximal proportion of the sulfuric acid used to digest the titanium raw material as highly concentrated waste acid from the process, 0 thereby minimizing both treatment costs and wastewater pollution, without adversely affecting the process as a whole or the quality of the titanium dioxide pigmant.

Accordingly, the liquid accumulating during washing of the hydrolyzate is divided up into three or, optionally, four fractions according to the sulfuric acid concentration.
These fractions are then specifically returned to the process or are removed.
More particularly, the process comprises the following steps: Titanium raw materials, particularly ilmenite or titanium slag, are digested in known manner with 80 to sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid used is preferably a mixture of at least 95% sulfuric acid, or more specifically of oleum (ie the solution of sulfur trioxide in concentrated sulfuric acid commercially known by that name), together with at least 60% sulfuric acid recovered by concentration of waste acid from the sulfate process by evaporation and separation of the metal sulfates from the sulfuric acid.
o. Alternatively, sulfuric acid recovered from waste acid by S other recycling processes may also be used.
According to the invention, the preferably solid digested material which accumulates during digestion of the raw materials is dissolved with the third fraction C of the solution accumulating during washing of the hydrolyzate.
The fraction in question has an H 2 S0 4 content of 0.2 to 7% by weight. Water or other solutions containing sulfuric ~acid may be used together with fraction C.
The low concentration of fraction C rules out any adverse effect on the subsequent hydrolysis process or on the pigment quality.
Solids and, optionally, iron sulfate heptahydrate are separated off in known manner from the titanyl sulfate solution obtained.
Ah Subsequent hydrolysis of the titanyl sulfate is carried out, for example, using separately produced hydrolysis nuclei, fraction B accumulating during washing of the hydrolyzate being added to the solution, Fraction B is preferably added after at least 50% of the total duration of the hydrolysis process has elapsed.
The quantity of fraction B is gauged in such a way that the suspension contains 160 to 200 g (Ti02/1 at the end of the hydrolysis process. The addition of fraction B containing 7 to 23% by weight H 2

According to the invention, this fraction B with an average H 2 S0 4 content of 10-23% by weight contains 4-12% of the sulfuric a~rid present after hydrolysis and, as described above, is added during hydrolysis of the titanyl sulfate, The relatively highly dilute solution accumulating after the 15 steep fall in concentration to less than 12% by weight

4 and preferably 24-27% by weight H 2 S0 4 enables the cost of treatment by recycling to be distinctly reduced compared with the prior art.
The advantageSof the process according to the invention are illustrated by the following Examples.
Example 1 1,170 kg titanium slag containing 75% by weight TiO 2 and 405 kg ilmenite containing 54% by weight TiO 2 were digested with 1,996 kg 77.2% sulfuric acid and 970 kg oleum (27% SO 3 in H 2 S0 4 (The 77.2% sulfuric acid had been ,0 recovered from waste acid in accordance with US 4,502,976.
It contained 5.8% by weight metal sulfates, including 345 ppm Cr in the form of chromium sulfate and 36 ppm V in the form of vanadium sulfate). The solid reaction product formed during the digestion reaction was dissolved with S 3.4 m of the fraction C separated off during the washing of the hydrolyzate of a preceding batch and 0.9 m wash solution from the washing of the digestion residues. The ao solution was filtered and the titanyl sulfate hydrolyzed.
Hydrolysis was carried out as follows: 49 1 of a suspension of hydrolysis nuclei separately S produced a precipitation of titanyl sulfate with sodium hydroxide were added to 4.35 m titanyl sulfate solution a 0 A i (corresponding to 1 t TiOz). The mixture was brought to the boiling temperature by introduction of steam and boiled to the "match point". The introduction of steam was then interrupted for 30 minutes, after which more steam was introduced and the mixture boiled for 2.5 h. After a total process time of 2.5 h, 0.9 m 3 solution which had been separated as fraction B during washing of the hydrolyzate was added. 70 minutes after addition of the solution, the introduction of steam was stopped. The hydrolysis yield .'110 was 95.4%.
The suspension obtained was filtered, waste acid containing 26.9% by weight H 2 S0 4 accumulating as filtrate.
The filter cake was then washed with water. The solution 0 accumulating as filtrate during washing of the filter cake was divided into 4 fractions: At the beginning of the washing process, the concentration of the solution fell slowly from 26.4 to 22-23% by weight H 2 S0 4 and then rapidly to values below 5% by weight.
0The first 2.9 M 3 filtrate were separated off as fraction A until a concentration of 23% by weight H 2 S0 4 had been reached. This fraction had an average concentration of 24.6% by weight H 2 S0 4 and was combined with the waste acid which had accumulated during filtration of the hydrolyzate suspension. The waste acid fed to the recycling process had an average concentration of 25.5% by weight H 2 S0 4 345 ppm S Cr and 580 ppm V. It contained 95.2% of the sulfate ions used during digestion of the raw material. 0.9 M 3 of the J filtrate were then separated of f as fraction B while the concentration of the filtrate fell from 23 to 10.2% by weight H 2 S0 4 The fraction B had an average concentration of 19.6% by weight H 2 S0 4 265 ppm Cr and 446 ppm V. it contained 9.3% of the sulfuric acid which was present in the suspension after hydrolysis. 2.4 M 3 solution were then separated off as fraction C. This filtrate fraction had a concentration of 5.5% by weight ",SO 4 19 ppm Cr and 32 ppm Le A26 808 8 V. It contained 5.4% of the sulfuric acid present on completion of hydrolysis.
When the filtrate stream was switched over as fraction D to the wastewater channel, the f iltrate contained 3. 1% by weight H2SOA. The concentration fell to 0.3% by weight
H
2 S0 4 1.8% by weight of the sulfate ions used in the digestion of the raw material were removed.
The filter cake obtained after washing of the hydrolyzate was bleached by the addition of Al powder and sulfuric acid. The standardizing chemicals phosphoric acid, alkalis and rutile nuclei were then added to the f ilter cake, 0004.4: followed by calcination under standard conditions at 9500C o in a rotary kiln to form rutile pigment.
04 0 *The pigment thus obtained w,.as substantially identical with the typical standard of normal production where water rather than fraction B3 was added during hydrolysis and the digested material was dissolved with water.
*boo Example 2, In the digestion of the raw material, the same ore mixture as in Example I was digested with 2,055 kg 77.2% recovered sulfuric acid and 1,000 kg oleum. The digestion cake was dissolved with 3.3 M3 of the filtrate separated off as fraction C. The digestion yield was 0.3% higher than in Example 1.
woo: Hydrolysis was carried out as in Example I with addition of 0. 9 m 3 washing filtrate (fraction B) The Ihydrolysis yield was 95.7%. The suspension obtained was filtered. The waste acid accumulating had a concentration of 26.3% by weight 112504. The filter cake was then wa-shed with water and the washing filtrate separated into three fractions. Fraction A was separated of f up to a concentration of 20.5% by weight H12504. it had an average sulfuric acid content of 23.3% by weight and was combined with the waste acid which had previously accumulated.
