Ilmenite produced from the Panxi area in China has high impurities such as Ca and Mg. High-grade titanium (Ti) slag can be obtained by the electric arc furnace process, a traditional method of treating ilmenite. Thus, Ti slag prepared from the Panxi ilmenite contains high CaO and MgO, exceeding 5 pct of the slag content. This high CaO and MgO content confers considerable difficulty in producing titania (TiO2) white using fluidizing chlorination. In this study, a new process named vacuum separation was found to produce high-grade TiO2materials. The effects of separation temperature and time on the TiO2grade were studied. The high-grade TiO2slag, which has 93 pct TiO2, <0.1 pct MgO, <1.2 pct SiO2, and <0.5 pct CaO, can be produced at 1823 K (1550 °C) in 45 minutes through the proposed method.
