SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING TITANIUM TETRACHLORIDE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for producing titanium tetrachloride with which cooling and temperature control of gaseous titanium tetrachloride and drying of titanium tetrachloride slurry can simultaneously and stably be performed in the production of titanium tetrachloride. SOLUTION: The system S for producing titanium tetrachloride is provided with: a chlorination furnace 1 for producing gaseous titanium tetrachloride; a cooling apparatus for cooling the gaseous titanium tetrachloride; a condensation apparatus 7 for producing liquid titanium tetrachloride; and a distillation apparatus for refining the liquid titanium tetrachloride. The cooling apparatus is provided with: a connection conduit 2 connected to the chlorination furnace 1; and a cooling tower 3 provided with a titanium tetrachloride slurry feeder 9 for feeding and atomizing titanium tetrachloride slurry which is a by-product of a process carried out in the distillation apparatus.
