Fluidized bed process for chlorinating titanium-containing material and coke useful in such process

摘要

In a fluidized bed process for chlorinating rirnium-containing material, an improvement is disclosed comprising utilizing in the process calcined petroleum shot coke, calcined petroleum fluid coke or mixtures thereof. The improved process is capable of (a) decreasing the amount of fine particulate coke that is entrained in the hot gases exiting the fluidized bed reactor, and (b) more completely reacting the coke.
