Question
TiCl4 can be formed by reacting titanium dioxide (TiO2) with hydrochloric acid. TiO2 is available as an ore containing 78 % TiO and 22 % inerts. The HC1 is available as 45 wt% solution (the balance is water). The per pass conversion of TiO, is 75 %. The HCl is fed into the reactor in 20% excess based on the reaction. Pure unreacted TiO is recycled back to mix with the TiO2 feed. TiO2 + 4 HC1 TiC4 + 2H20 -- For 1 kg of TiC4 produced, determine: a. the kg of TIO2 ore fed. b. the kg of 45 wt % HCl solution fed. c. the ratio of recycle stream to fresh TiO2 ore (in kg). (MW : TiO2 79.9; HCl 36.47; TIC4 189.7)
