The primary goal of this project was to prove the technical feasibility of producing high quality iron oxide and titanium dioxide (TiO 2) products from Minnesota ilmenite using …
Ilmenite accounts for approximately 93% of worldwide titanium mineral production. Ilmenite, an iron oxide, typically contains between 40% and 65% titanium dioxide. Ilmenite is generally mined from surface or near-surface deposits, though location and composition are deposit-dependent and impact beneficiation processes.
95% of ilmenite is used by industries to produce titanium dioxide (Titanium Statistics and Information, 2021). Ilmenite is either used directly as feed stock for titanium dioxide (TiO2) production processes or it is pre-treated to produce titanium slag and synthetic rutile that are further used as feed stock (Middlemas et al., 2015).
