0 cited hundreds of China's titanium dioxide industry has made rapid development in recent years, production capacity over Japan, ranking second in the world. However, compared with the advanced level in foreign countries, there is an anatase titanium dioxide and a non-pigmented titanium dioxide in the titanium dioxide industry in China with many production plants, small production scales, poor production technology, single products, and most of the low-grade titanium dioxide. The key to the development of titanium dioxide is urgently needed for the industry to improve the technical level and bring the economies of scale into full play.

Zhuzhou Hualien Wynn Titanium Dioxide Factory is one of the earliest producers of pigment titanium dioxide in China. The existing 15,000 t/a production capacity has an important position in the domestic titanium dioxide industry. Considering the development of the titanium dioxide market, expanding production capacity and developing high-grade rutile titanium dioxide products are necessary conditions for our company to gain a foothold in the market and gain advantages in competition. In the course of technological transformation, only relying on technological progress and constant innovation can promote the improvement of titanium dioxide production technology, shorten the gap with foreign products, and maintain the domestic leading position.

In the production process of sulphate titanium dioxide, our company and most domestic manufacturers adopt the freezing crystallization process, but vacuum crystallization is more advantageous than freezing crystallization in all aspects. Therefore, our company adopted the method of development research and self-design in the technological transformation of titanium dioxide, successfully developed the vacuum crystallization technology and domestic equipment, formed its own vacuum crystallization technology, and promoted the improvement of the overall production technology level of titanium dioxide in China. .

1 vacuum crystallization process technology principle, application status and development trend Vacuum crystallization, steam as the power, it is ejected at high speed by the jet pump, the static pressure can be converted into kinetic energy to generate vacuum, in the vacuum crystallization tank in the titanium liquid The water vaporizes under the reduced pressure and the heat is removed from the vaporized heat, so that the temperature of the titanium liquid is reduced, and the ferrous sulfate crystallizes out. The degree of supersaturation of the continuously evaporated solution of water also increases, and the ferrous iron continuously precipitates until the desired temperature and allowable ferrous content are reached. The vacuum crystallization process is an advanced titanium liquid purification technology. The foreign large-scale sulfuric acid titanium dioxide plants have adopted the vacuum crystallization process, and the domestically introduced three sets of foreign advanced 15,000 t/a titanium dioxide production devices (Titanium Dioxide, 404 The plant and Jinan Yuxing used vacuum crystallization process. Titanium dioxide industry is characterized by a high degree of monopoly of production technology and high technology transfer costs. At present, the complete set of equipment for the vacuum crystallization process, including vacuum crystallization tanks and steam jet pumps, has no mature domestic experience. Key equipment needs The investment of foreign escape devices will be greatly increased, which has limited the promotion and application of vacuum crystallization technology in domestic titanium white enterprises. The vacuum crystallization process of the domestically-developed devices developed by our company is conducive to reducing energy consumption, saving operating costs and promoting the industry, and has a good prospect for development.
