  • Crude Ticl4 Purification: a Review of the Current State of the Art and Future Opportunities
    Crude TiCl4 purification: a review of the current state of the art and future opportunities L. Hockaday and A. Kale Mintek, Randburg, South Africa Raw titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) is produced by chlorination of titania feedstock. Prior to its utilization in the manufacture of titanium dioxide pigment or titanium metal, the TiCl4 is purified by adding reagents that react with the impurities in the crude TiCl4, followed by distillation of the mixture. The current state of the art in purification of crude TiCl4 was surveyed. Tests were conducted at the laboratory scale to assess the efficiency of various additives used in the purification process to minimize the vanadium content in the distillate. The effects of various reagents, namely oleic acid, sodium oleate, potassium oleate, and copper on the purification of crude TiCl4 were compared. The purified TiCl4 was water-clear in aspect and analysed < 2 ppm vanadium for all reagents tested. Possible reactions between the impurities in the crude TiCl4 and the reagents are investigated thermodynamically with the FactSage program. INTRODUCTION Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) is obtained by the chlorination of a titanium-bearing mineral such as ilmenite and rutile, as well as from titanium slag. The chlorination process usually takes place in a fluidized bed in the presence of chlorine gas and a reducing agent such as petroleum coke, resulting in crude titanium tetrachloride. TiCl4 is an intermediate product in the production of titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigment and titanium metal. The pure form of titanium dioxide is used in the pigment industry for paints, food colouring etc., and titanium metal is widely used in the aerospace, medicine, sport, and semiconductor production industries.

  • Toxicological Profile for Vanadium
    VANADIUM 107 4. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL INFORMATION 4.1 CHEMICAL IDENTITY Vanadium is a naturally occurring element that appears in group 5(B5) of the periodic table (Lide 2008). Vanadium is widely distributed in the earth’s crust at an average concentration of 100 ppm nd (approximately 100 mg/kg), similar to that of zinc and nickel (Byerrum 1991). Vanadium is the 22 most abundant element in the earth’s crust (Baroch 2006). Vanadium is found in about 65 different minerals; carnotite, roscoelite, vanadinite, and patronite are important sources of this metal along with bravoite and davidite (Baroch 2006, Lide 2008). It is also found in phosphate rock and certain ores and is present in some crude oils as organic complexes (Lide 2008). Table 4-1 lists common synonyms and other pertinent identification information for vanadium and representative vanadium compounds. 4.2 PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Vanadium is a gray metal with a body-centered cubic crystal system. It is a member of the first transition series. Because of its high melting point, it is referred to as a refractory metal (Baroch 2006). When highly pure, it is a bright white metal that is soft and ductile. It has good structural strength and a low- fission neutron cross section. Vanadium has good corrosion resistance to alkalis, sulfuric and hydrochloric acid, and salt water; however, the metal oxidizes readily above 660 °C (Lide 2008). The chemistry of vanadium compounds is related to the oxidation state of the vanadium (Woolery 2005). Vanadium has oxidation states of +2, +3, +4, and +5. When heated in air at different temperatures, it oxidizes to a brownish black trioxide, a blue black tetraoxide, or a reddish orange pentoxide.

The original guidelines were published in the Federal Register on April 17, 1987. Each profile will be revised and republished as necessary. The ATSDR toxicological profile succinctly characterizes the toxicologic and adverse health effects information for the toxic substances each profile describes. Each peer-reviewed profile identifies and reviews the key literature that describes a substance's toxicologic properties. Other pertinent literature is also presented but is described in less detail than the key studies. The profile is not intended to be an exhaustive document; however, more comprehensive sources of specialty information are referenced.
