Titanium Tetrachloride Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a titanium tetrachloride manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for titanium tetrachloride production, including the cost of titanium tetrachloride production, titanium tetrachloride plant cost, titanium tetrachloride production costs, and the overall titanium tetrachloride manufacturing plant cost.

Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a titanium tetrachloride production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Titanium tetrachloride is an inorganic chemical compound that is widely used in manufacturing several other titanium-containing compounds and titanium metal itself. It is a primary chemical used in the production of titanium dioxide that is further used as a white pigment in paints and other chemical products on a large scale. Its primary utilization is presented in metallurgical sectors. It is one of the base chemicals used in manufacturing titanium metal on a commercial scale. Moreover, it is used in manufacturing artificial pearls, iridescent glass, some of the plastic varieties like high density polythene, and more.

The rising demand for titanium tetrachloride as a vital ingredient used to make titanium metal and other titanium-containing compounds, significantly contributes to its market expansion for the chemical manufacturing, and paint & coating industries. It serves as a primary chemical used for the production of titanium dioxide that is further used as a white pigment in paints and other chemical products, which increases its demand in the chemical and paint industries.

Moreover, it also serves as an important constituent in the manufacture of artificial pearls, iridescent glass and as a catalyst to produce different types of plastics, which further propels its market growth and increases its demand in jewellery, glass and plastic industries. Moreover, the availability and cost of production of titanium tetrachloride’s feedstock (rutile, coke, etc.), titanium tetrachloride market prices, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, etc., are some of the elements that influence industrial titanium tetrachloride procurement.

Raw Material for Titanium Tetrachloride Production

According to the Titanium Tetrachloride manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Titanium Tetrachloride production include Rutile-Coke-Copper Powder.

Manufacturing Process of Titanium Tetrachloride

The extensive Titanium Tetrachloride production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Rutile: The process involves the reduction of rutile with coke, followed by the chlorination of the reduced product at 200-500°C to obtain a crude distillate compound. The crude distillate is further purified by using copper powder and undergoes distillation to give the titanium tetrachloride as the final product.

Titanium Tetrachloride is a colorless to pale-yellow liquid chemical that is acidic in nature. The chemical has a pungent odor and is considered a toxic compound. It is mainly composed of titanium metal and four chlorine atoms. The metallic chemical compound has vital roles in various industrial domains; primarily, aerospace, metallurgical, and chemical industries.It is a corrosive chemical compound that readily reacts with metals, air, and water. It holds a melting point of around -24.1 °C. The compound is soluble in cold water under certain conditions, and some of the chemical solvents, such as dilute hydrochloric acid, alcohol.

It decomposes on heating while releasing toxic fumes such as hydrogen chloride. Exposure to moist air can cause Titanium Tetrachloride to get hydrolyzed and produce hydrogen chloride gas. It is a volatile liquid chemical that has to be handled with care and while taking precautions. It also reacts with water at room temperature and rapidly produces hydrochloric acid and other titanium-based products such as titanium oxychloride, titanium hydroxide, and more. It is a highly reactive chemical that undergoes rapid hydrolysis and results in exothermic reactions.
