Technical Aspects of the Sulphate Process Rutile Tio2
1. Leaching: The process begins with the leaching of natural rutile ores using sulfuric acid, which helps dissolve the titanium dioxide content.
2. Purification: The leach solution is then subjected to purification steps to remove impurities such as iron, aluminum, and other metals, ensuring a high-purity product.
3. Hydrolysis: The purified solution undergoes hydrolysis, where it is neutralized to precipitate titanium dioxide as a hydrated form.
4. Calcination: The hydrated titanium dioxide is then calcined at high temperatures to remove the water content and obtain the final high-purity TiO2 pigment.
