Abstract
A mixture of ilmenite and carbon is fluidized at 750-1000 DEG C preferably 850-1000 DEG C. in an insulated shaft furnace, sufficient chlorine being passed through a perforated base therein to chlorinate the metallic constituents at a rate proportional to their relative proportions in the ore and produce titanium tetrachloride and ferric chloride. The fluidized bed and/or the gaseous products of the chlorination may be cooled by a suitable liquid or solid cooling agent or a suspension of the latter in the former, specifically mentioned agents being ferric chloride and titanium tetrachloride. In the example, titanium tetrachloride was used to control the bed temperature at 970 DEG C. or below; ferric chloride was admitted to a first condenser to cool the gases to 300 DEG C.; an atomized spray of titanium tetrachloride cooled residual gases to 130 DEG C. and precipitated ferric chloride; and a series of tube condensers cooled the remaining gases to below -10 DEG C. to remove titanium tetrachloride; chlorine comprised less than 1 per cent of the original gaseous mixture. Suitable ores are low magnesium and calcium ilmenite sands containing, e.g. 60 per cent Ti O2, 25 per cent Fe and 1.2 per cent by weight alkali and alkaline earth oxides and having particle sizes from 20-1000m preferably 100-300m . About 10-30 per cent of charcoal or coke is added, having a particle size of 20-2000m preferably 50-600m . The process is preferably initiated with a bed of rutile and carbon in a furnace preheated by means of hot gases led or consumed therein, by the use of oxygen to react with said carbon, or preferably by playing a flame on to the mass fluidized by air. When the temperature reaches 8-900 DEG C., chlorine is admitted to continue the fluidization, and ilmenite carbon are fed in from the top in suitable proportions, there being generally used an amount of chlorine varying by 10 per cent, preferably 5 per cent on either side of the stoichiometric proportion. In the example, a furnace was used having a perforated base as described in Specification 724,193, in which the perforations are fitted with controlling orifices on the underside and gas-permeable discs are fitted to prevent the return of dust etc.
