Abstract

Process of extracting titanium values from titaniferous bearing material by circulating a reaction mixture containing titanium values in an agitation column located within a reaction vessel in a direction countercurrent to the flow of the reaction mixture in the annular space located between the agitation column and the inner reaction vessel wall, said circulation being done in a manner to maintain the titaniferous bearing material in a continuous turbulent suspension flow in the agitation column and discharging the reaction mixture from the reaction vessel and recovering the extracted titanium values.
