Rutile is a mineral composed of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and is used as a feedstock for the production of titanium metal, pigments, and other products. Natural rutile is the most common form of TiO2, but synthetic rutile is also produced through the Becher process. Synthetic rutile is generally considered to be more economical than natural ...

Abstract: A process for recovering titanium as synthetic rutile from an ilmenite unsuited to the standard Becher process by treating the ilmenite in a reducing atmosphere in the presence of a carbonaceous reductant to yield reduced ilmenite in which iron oxides in the ilmenite have been reduced to metallic iron, and separating the metallic iron to obtain a …

Founded in 1973 by Benelite Corporation of America to develop and produce HITOX TiO2 pigment from synthetic rutile made from the "Benelite Process", the company was spun off and named HITOX Corporation of America in 1980. In December 1988, the company became publically owned and traded on NASDAQ under the symbol TORM.

Synthetic rutile refers to TiO 2 that remains in the ilmenite after FeO is removed. Synthetic rutile is more porous than natural rutile, owing to the removal of …

Synthetic rutile were manufactured by chloride reactions from the ilmenite ore, and the particle size of the synthetic rutile was 125 µm after a 30-min chloride reaction.

The shortage of natural rutile and the need for higher grade titanium feedstocks has encouraged ilmenite upgrading by removing iron oxide and other impurities from the grain lattice, thus converting ilmenite into synthetic rutile for the chlorination process (El-Hazek et al., 2007; Mahmoud et al. 2004; Lasheen, 2009). There are several
