ILMENITE BENEFICIATION WITH FEC13

摘要

A process for the selective chlorination of the iron constituent of titaniferous ores using FeCl3 as the chlorinating agent, and using a reductant selected from at least one of the group consisting of a solid carbonaceous material and carbon monoxide. The FeCl3 can be produced by oxidizing the FeCl2 resulting from the selective chlorination, thereby providing for a recycle operation.
