QIT Ilmenite
QIT stands for Quebec Iron & Titanium, it owns an
ilmenite
mine in northeastern Quebec; the ore is shipped to
Tracy where it is processed to titanium dioxide slags, iron
pigs,
steel billets and steel auto parts.
This ilmenite comes from th anti-pollution system of the
UKTO
where the ore is upgraded before being put into the
reduction furnace
Hence the low concentrarion in TiO2 in the waste material.
A typical analysis is as such :
SiO2 10.54
Al2O3 6.70
Fe2O3 32.72
TiO2 25.69
CaO 2.06
MgO 3.76
FeO 12.7
Imputities 5.66
Total 100
A theorotical substitution of it is as follows for 1% of the
stuff :
