A process for the production of a hydrolyzable titanyl sulphate solution comprising contacting sulphuric acid of about 86% concentration with a mixture of slag and ilmenite, the ratio of H2SO4 to TiO2 in the mixture ranging from about 1.7:1 to 2.2:1 and the mol ratio of Ti(III) to Fe(III) in the mixture ranging from about 25:1 to 1.4:1, the slag having a TiO2 content of >80% and a Ti(III) content of about 22 to 40% calculated as TiO2, and the ilmenite having a Fe(III) to Fe(II) ratio from about 1:1 to 10:1, and adding water if necessary to bring the concentration of sulphuric acid to from about 86 to 96%. |
