Abstract

1355433 Extracting titanium ELECTRICITY COUNCIL 13 July 1972 [28 July 1971] 35535/71 Heading C7D Elemental titanium is obtained by reducing titanium tetrachloride in vapour form with a vapourized alkali or alkaline earth metal, the vapours being heated by hydrogen as carrier gas passed through an electric arc. The reacting materials are maintained at a temperature at which elemental titanium is liquid and falls to the bottom of the reactor vessel 12, and at a temperature at which the temperature of the materials is above that of the boiling point of the alkali or alkaline earth metal chloride formed so that the chloride thus formed may be removed from the reaction vessel 12 through 24. The metal contained in this chloride is obtained by electrolysis in tank 29 and passed into the reactor vessel 12 through ports 21. The titanium tetrachloride is passed through port 20 and the arc is struck between the cathode tip 15 and anode 16, a swirling action of the gas passed down through nozzle 17 being caused by the effect of an electrically energized coil 18 on the arc struck.
