A CONTINUOUS PROCESS FOR ADSORBING FERRIC CHLORIDE FROM A TITANIFEROUS ORE CHLORINATOR EXIT GAS STREAM,AND FOR PRODUCING CHLORINE FROM THE ADSORBED FERRIC CHLORIDE

摘要

A continuous process is disclosed for adsorbing and oxidizing ferric chloride, comprising cooling the exit gas stream, adsorbing ferric chloride in a NaCl-FeCl3 liquid eutectic salt, and reacting, in the liquid phase, a molar excess of the resulting eutectic salt mixture with oxygen to provide chlorine.
