Technology Research on the Fluidization Treatment of High-Titanium Slag to Manufacture Synthetic Rutile

Abstract:

Oxidation and reduction of high-titanium slag were conducted in a self-designed fluidized bed. Detailed analyses of the leaching mechanism and kinetics were also performed. The effects of oxidation temperature, oxidation time, reduction temperature, and time on leaching products and on the leaching behavior of impurity were systematically investigated via conditional tests. The optimal conditions of the conditional tests are as follows: oxidation temperature of 1,0001,100°C, oxidation time of 3070 min, reduction temperature of 700800°C, and reduction time of 90150 min. Scanning electronic microscope and X-ray diffract analyses show that the phase structure of the high-titanium slag changed after fluidizing oxidation and reduction, which is when a major phase of the high-titanium slag was changed from pseudobrookite to rutile. The change had an important role on pulverization ratio reduction and on the creation of a new technology route for the use of titanium resource in Panzhihua in manufacturing synthetic rutile.
