One-step aluminum powder removing vanadium refining titanium tetrachloride process through identification

Recently, the "one-step aluminum powder removal of vanadium-refined titanium tetrachloride process technology" jointly completed by the Beijing Nonferrous Metal Research Institute and Tianjin Chemical Plant Tiantai Chemical Co., Ltd. has passed the scientific and technological achievement identification organized by the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association.
At present, China's production of titanium sponge mainly uses copper wire in addition to vanadium to refine titanium tetrachloride. This process equipment is bulky, high-cost, labor-intensive, low-recovery, and produces large amounts of copper-containing waste water, which seriously pollutes the environment. The “one-step aluminum powder removing vanadium refining process technology titanium tetrachloride” researched and developed by our Institute of Mining and Metallurgy is an innovative process technology in addition to vanadium tetrachloride technology at home and abroad.
The appraisal committee believes that the one-step process for refining titanium tetrachloride with vanadium from aluminum powder is the first of its kind at home and abroad. It has the advantages of short process, easy operation, continuous production process, low aluminum powder consumption, low vanadium cost, etc., and has reached the international advanced level. This process is one of the key technologies that China's titanium metallurgical industry is eagerly needed for large-scale development. Using it to replace the existing copper wire removal vanadium process has good environmental effects and significant benefits. In the field of titanium tetrachloride, titanium sponge and titanium dioxide chloride production, has a wide range of application prospects.
