Simultaneous reduction and carburization of ilmenite
Abstract
Western Australian ilmenite was reduced using “Collie” coal at temperatures in the range 1587 to 1790 K to form carbon-saturated iron and titanium oxycarbide. The oxycarbide phase formed from Ti3O5 at temperatures below 1686 K and from Ti2O3 at temperatures above 1686 K. At 1686 K, both mechanisms occurred. The reaction rate was controlled by oxidation of carbon by carbon dioxide generated by reduction of the oxide phase. The final product at …
