Iron Extraction from South African Ilmenite Concentrate Leaching by Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) in the Presence of Reductant (Metallic Fe) and Additive (MgSO<sub>4</sub>)

The high content of iron in ilmenite ore poses a great challenge, particularly in the synthesis of titanium-containing products due to high susceptibility of iron (Fe) to corrosion. Direct leaching of ilmenite ore in hydrochloric acid (HCl) encouraging Fe dissolution was investigated. The influence...
