Jan 01, 2013#0183;#32;A flow sheet of the new process is shown in Fig. 1. Titanium slag is roasted with sodium hydroxide and washed with water to remove soluble impurities and excess NaOH. The products of roasting and washing are leached with HCl acid and the resulting solution undergoes a solvent extraction stage to produce a titanium rich raffinate.
