Description
~07948~
This invention is concerned with the production of titanium dioxide which i9 characterized by recovery of reusable H2S04, high pure Fe oxide and hydroxide and fractional recovery of Mn, V and Cr, etc. from FeS04.nH20 and waste acid of 20 - 4~/0 H2S04 containing abundant heavy metallic ions, which are by-produced in the production of TiO2 by dissolution of Ti raw mate-rial~ such as ilmenite, steel production slag, quch as electric furnace slag, convertor slag with H2S04.
In the conventional production o~ TiO2 using H2S04, the required 98% H2S04 per 1 ton of TiO2 product is 3.5 to 4.2 tons.
Nevertheless, the economical treatment of FeS04.nH20 and waste acid~ by-produced in abundance after the separation of Ti com-pounds by hydrolysis process has not been found and the allow-ance to stand or discard them as untreatment has given rise to serious pollution problems. This invention is originated to over-come the faults of the conventional production process described above.
The present invention relates to a production of ti-tanium dioxide which is characterized by recovery of reusable H2S04, high pure Fe oxide and hydroxide and fractional recovery of Mn, V and Cr, etc. from FeS04.nH20 and waste acid of 20 - 40YO
H2S04 containing abundant heavy metallic ions, which are by-pro-duced in the production of TiO2 by dissolutlon of Ti raw materials such as ilmenite, steel production slag, such as electric furnace slag, convertor slag w th H2S04.
The Qummary of this invention is as follows. The pre-sent invention iB firstly characterized with~ production of waste acids and FeS04.nH20 as follows. The aqueou~ solution pretreated after dissolution of Ti raw materials with H2S04 is brought into contact and mixed with an organic solvent (A) to extract metallic ions such as Cr3+ and Nb5+ ions in the first st~ge and the bulk of Ti ions in the resulting aqueous solution 10794~8 is separated by well-known hydrolysis process in the 2nd stage, The rnetallic ions such as Ti, Mn and V ions remaining in the re-sult:ing aqueous solution are extracted into an organic solvent (B) ln the 3rd stage, an organic solvent (C) extracts Fe ions in the resulting aqueous solution after the oxidation of Fe2+
ions to Fe ions in the 4th stage and V5+ ions in the resulting aqueous solution are extracted into an organic solvent (D) in the 5th stage, The resulting aqueous solution from the 5th stage is the reusable regenerated acid for dissolution of raw materials.
The 2nd characteristic OL present invention is con-cerned with the extraction of Fe ions from the aqueous solution using C12 gas for the oxidation as follows. After the conversion of Fe2+ ions in the aqueous solution from the 3rd stage to Fe3 ions using C12 gas, the amount of HCl required to extract Fe3 ions in the aqueous solution as Fe chloride complex is added to the resulting aqueous solution and is contacted with an organic solvent (E) to extract Fe-Cl ions into the organic phase, The 3rd characteristic of this invention is concerned with the reduction of energy in concentration process of acid as follows. FeS04.nH20 by-produced in the pretreatment process is dissolved with water or acids from the 4th stage, the oxidation of Fe + ions in the resulting aqueous solution to Fe ions is finished and then Fe3+ ions in the resulting aqueous solution are extracted into the organic phase with contact of the organic' solvent ~C). The increasing concentration of regenerated acid by several repetitions of the above operation in compliance with dema,nd yields the reduction of energy in the following concen-tration process of acid.
The 4th characteristic of present invention is con-cerned with the reasonable treatment of FeS04.nH20 with the fractional extraction of Mn and Fe ions as follows. After dis-solution of FeS04'nH20 by-produced with water, Mn + ions in the resulting aqueous solution are extracted with an organic solvent 10794~8 (F) into th~ organic phase to separate from ~e ions in the re-sulting aqueous solution, Fe2+ ions are oxidized to Fe3+ ions and then Fe3+ ions are extracted into the organic phase with contact of the organic solvent (C). The concentration of recovered acid is enhanced by several repetitions of the above operation in eom-pliance with demand and recycled for dissolution of raw materials by way of the eoncentration proeess The 5th charaeteristie of this invention is concerned with the reduetion of reeovery cost by rising Fe concentration in the aqueous solution introduced into the recovery process of HCl and Fe as follows. The Fe concentration of the aqueous solution introduced into the reeovery proeess of HCl and Fe is increased by extracting Fe3+ ions in the baek-extraction solution of the organie solvent (C) with eontaet of the organic solvent (E) and stripping with water. The inereased Fe eoneentration produees the reduetion of reeovery eost.
The 6th eharaeteristie of this invention is concerned with the reasonable recovery of Fe compounds using both solvent extraction and diaphragm-eleetrolysis teehniques as follows.
The baek-extraetion solution of the organie solvent (C) or of the organie-solvent (E) is introdueed into the eathode eompartment of diaphragm-eleetrolysis, Fe3+ ions are reduced to Fe ions there, free acid is transferred to the anode eompartment and hydrated Fe oxide or hydroxide is reeovered with eontaet of air or oxygen and the aqueous solution in the eathode eompartment eontaining a lesser amount of free reeovered aeid.
The 7th eharaeteristic of this invention is concerned with the fraetional reeovery of metallie ions eoextraeted into the organie solvent (B) as follows. Mn, V and Fe ions coextraeted`
into the organie solvent (B) are serubbed with HCl or H2S04, Ti ions in the organie solvent (B) is baek-extraeted into the aqueous solu-tion with eontaet of (NH4)2C03 + NH3 solution, and then the organie 1079~88 solvent converted from H type to N~I3 type in the above operationis ac~ain converted to H type with contact of H2S04. When Cr3 ions are coextracted, they in the organic phase can be recovered into the aqueous solution with contact of HCl ~ H202 or HCl +
NaCl solution. Thus, the individual metallic ion coextracted into the organic solvent (B) is fractionally recovered. When A13+ and Mg2 ions are accumulated in the recovered acid during recycle of recovered acid, the enhacement of their ions concen-tration is depressed by taking one part of them out of the extraction system and the solution taken out is recovered as (NH4)2S04 by neutralizing with NH3.
The invention relatec to a process for the prepara-tion of titanium dioxide by dissolving titanium-containing raw materials in ~ulphuric acid to form an aqueous solution of sulphuric acid containing dissolved titanium and other metals, separating ferrous sulphate from the aqueous solution and then isolating titanium as the desired titanium dioxide by the steps of:
a) where dissolved chromium and niobium are present in the aqueous solution, contacting the aqueous solution with an organic extractant ~A) capable of extracting chromium and niobium so as to extract the dissolved chromium and niobium from the a~ueous solution, b) hydrolysing the aqueous solution so as to precipitate the majority of dissolved titanium therefrom and subsequently recovering the precipitated titanium compound as titanium dioxide;
c) contacting the hydrolysed aqueous solution with an organic extractant (B) capable of extracting titanium from the aqueous solution for subsequent recovery as titanium dioxide:
~ -4-10~5~48~
d) oxidizing the thus-contacted aqueous solution to convert ferrous ions present therein -to ferric ions and contacting the oxidized aqueous solution with an organic extractant (c) capable of extracting ferric ions so as to extract ferric ions from the aqueous solution; and where dissolved vanadium is present in the aqueous solution;
e) contacting the resultant aqueous solution with an organic extractant (D) capable of extracting vanadium so as to extract dissolved vanadium from the aqueous solution to yield a liquor essentially comprising sulphuric acid substantially free from dissolved chromium, niobium, titanium, iron and vanadium.

As the organic solvent ( B ) becomes NH4 type by stripping Ti ions, it is converted to H type with contact of H2S04 or HCl in the following process. When Cr3+ ions are coextracted, Cr3+

(6) The Treatment of By~product FeS04 nH20 The H2S04 concentration produced after the extraction of Fe3+ ions and almost all heavy metallic ions in the fourth stage is 250 - 300 g/l and consequently this low concentration of H2S04 en- '!
hances the energy cost of concentration to reuse for the dissolu-tion of raw materials through the concentration process. The H2S04 concentration if increased by dissolving FeS04'nH20 by-produced in the pretreatment process into the aqueous solution removed Fe3 ions in order to reduce this energy cost. The several repetitions of the above operation in compliance of demand can diminish the energy cost of concentration. The relation between H2S04 concen-tration and Fe ions extraction coe~icient is shown in Fig, 18.
FeS04 nH20 often includes MnS04. As shown in the flow-sheet of Fig. 2~ Mn ions are separated from Fe ions by ex-tracting Mn ions with contact of the organic solvent (F) in the lower concentration of free acid produced by the dissolution of FeS04 nH20 crystal with water (see Fig l9).

While, the organic solvent (F) may be made up of mixed solvent of D2EHPA and LLX-63 or primary, secondary, tertiary or quarternary amine. As described above, the mixed solvents con-sisted of mainly alkyl phosphoric acid and 5 - 20~/o of LIX.-63 or ~-bromo lauric acid are used to extract Mn ions.
A small amount of Fe2+ ions coextracted with Mn ions are scrubbed from the organic solvent (F) with contact of MnS04 solution having 2 ~ 3,5 of pH values, the organic solvent (F) contains only Mn ions and consequently Mn ions are stripped from the organic solvent (F) with 300 g of H2S04 in the follow-ing process.
