Chloride Process Has Advantages<br />
� Old Process<br />
DUPONT CONFIDENTIAL<br />
SULFATE<br />
– Sulfuric Acid<br />
– Batch Process<br />
� More Waste<br />
– 3-4 tonnes of copperas (red<br />
mud) and 8 tonnes of spent acid<br />
per <strong>TiO</strong> 2 tonne<br />
� Produces Anatase and Rutile <strong>TiO</strong> 2<br />
– Additional processing required<br />
for crystal structure conversion<br />
CHLORIDE<br />
� “New” Technology<br />
– Chlorine Gas<br />
– Continuous Process<br />
� Less Waste<br />
– Up to 1.6 tonnes Iron Chloride<br />
per <strong>TiO</strong> 2 tonne<br />
� Produces Rutile <strong>TiO</strong> 2<br />
– Preferred crystalline form for<br />
maximum hiding power<br />
