Thermodynamics of Aluminothermic Processes for Ferrotitanium Alloy Production from Bauxite Residue and Ilmenite

Titanium oxide is a major component of bauxite residue (BR) with a high value, but it is often an unwanted element in common BR reuse options such as cement or iron production. Conventional carbothermic reduction smelting of BR produces a slag still containing a large amount of Ti. This study invest...
