ABSTRACT:
The recovery of titanium tetrachloride from a mixed titanium tetrachloride/ferric chloride vapor, suitably as produced by the fluidized bed chlorination of an iron containing titaniferous ore such as ilmenite is by treating the vapor with excess oxygen over that required in theory to oxidize the ferric chloride content thereof while maintaining the vapor at a temperature within the range of 500.degree. C to 800.degree. C, removing the resulting ferric oxide particles from the vapor, cooling the vapor to a temperature above the boiling point of titanium tetrachloride to condense residual ferric chloride in the vapor and separating the condensed ferric chloride, and recovering the remaining titanium tetrachloride containing vapor.
The residual ferric chloride, and chlorine remaining in the vapor after recovery of the titanium tetrachloride may be recycled.
