description |
Titanium oksikarbonitrida (TiOxCyNz) yang di sintesis daripada ilmenit dan
pengklorinan pada suhu rendah untuk menghasilkan titanium tetraklorida (TiCl4)
telah di kaji pada projek ini. Kesan karbotermal penurunan dan penitridaan pada
suhu, masa, suasana dan penambahan plastik polietilena (PET) kedalam arang batu
terhadap pembentukan besi (Fe) dan TiOxCyNz daripada ilmenit telah di kaji dalam
proses CTRN pada suhu 1100-1250 °C selama 60 ke 180 minit dengan empat nisbah
berbeza iaitu PET kepada arang bermula daripada 25% kepada 100%. Mikroskop
elektron pengimbasan pancaran (FESEM) dilengkapi dengan analisis spektrum X-ray
dispersif tenaga (EDX) menunjukkan bahawa produk yang disintesis oleh 75% PET
mempunyai mikrostruktur yang unik di mana zarah Fe sfera secara jelas dipisahkan
dari fasa TiO0.02C0.13N0.85. Kadar karbotermal pengurangan dan nitridasi tertinggi
untuk sampel yand disintesiskan oleh 75% PET adalah pada 99.15% dan 85.47%.
Penyingkiran besi juga dilakukan dengan proses larut lesap pengudaraan jenis
Becher pada 70 °C dengan adanya amonium klorida (NH4Cl) dan 0.1 wt% AQ-2
(anthraquinone-2-sulfonat asid natrium garam monohidrat) sebagai pemangkin
berkesan. Kecekapan penyingkiran Fe adalah 98.5%, dan kandungan akhir Fe bebas
pada TiO0.02C0.13N0.85 mengandungi 0.48 wt% Fe sebagaimana ditentukan oleh
analisis ICP-OES. Mekanisme pengklorinan titanium nitrida (TiN) dan ilmenit
nitrida telah dikaji secara meluas pada 250 °C - 400 °C. Tahap pengklorinan
meningkat dengan kadar sederhana dengan meningkatkan suhu dan pengurangan saiz
zarah TiN pada kadar aliran campuran gas N2-Cl2. Pengklorinan TiN yang tertinggi
pada 250 °C dan 400 °C adalah 85.6% dan 97.7% dalam 60 minit. Hasil eksperimen
ini juga menunjukkan bahawa model teras menyusut dengan mekanisme kawalan
campuran mengawal kadar pengklorinan. Permukaan pada reaksi kimia terhadap gas
klorin pada permukaan zarah TiN adalah kadar mengawal pada peringkat awal dan,
pada peringkat kemudian, penyerapan dalaman (liang) melalui lapisan produk
perantaraan adalah langkah mengawal kadar. Tenaga pengaktifan yang jelas (Ea)
10.97 kJ/mole diperolehi untuk pengklorinan TiN. Tahap pengklorinan
TiO0.02C0.13N0.85 adalah 93.5% pada 400 °C dalam 60 minit. TiCl4 dengan ketulenan
99% yang telah dihasilkan dari ilmenit Malaysia dan sisa pengklorinan yang
mengandungi unsur nadir bumi (REEs) dengan jumlah yang tinggi serta logam.
Projek ini menunjukkan bahawa tiga tahap proses yang boleh menjadi kaedah yang
boleh dilaksanakan dan kebolehupayaan untuk pengeluaran titanium tetrachlorida
yang agak tulen daripada ilmenit.

The synthesis of titanium oxycarbonitride (TiOxCyNz) from ilmenite and its
chlorination at low temperatures for production of titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) was
investigated in this research. The effects of reduction/nitridation temperature, time,
atmosphere and addition of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic into coal
on the formation of TiOxCyNz and iron (Fe) from ilmenite were investigated in
carbothermal reduction and nitridation (CTRN) process at 1100-1250 °C for 60-180
minutes with four different PET-to-coal ratios (C/Ored) ranging from 25 to 100 wt%.
Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) equipped with energy
dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX) analyses showed that the product synthesized
by 75 wt% PET had a unique microstructure in which spherical Fe particles were
distinctly separated from TiO0.02C0.13N0.85 phase. The highest extents of reduction
and nitridation of the sample synthesized by 75 wt% PET were 99.15% and 85.47%,
respectively. Iron was also removed by an aeration leaching process at 70 °C in the
presence of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) and 0.1 wt% AQ-2 (Anthraquinone-2-
sulfonic acid sodium salt monohydrate) as the effective catalysts. The efficiency of
Fe removal was 98.5%, and final TiO0.02C0.13N0.85 contained 0.48 wt% Fe as
determined by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES)
analysis. The chlorination mechanism of titanium nitride (TiN) and TiOxCyNz were
extensively investigated at 250 °C - 400 °C. The extent of chlorination moderately
increased with increasing the temperature and decreasing particle size of TiN at
constant flow rate of N2-Cl2 gas mixture. The highest extents of chlorination of TiN
at 250 °C and 400 °C were about 85.6% and 97.7% in 60 minutes, respectively. The
results also indicated that a shrinking core model with mixed-control mechanism
governed the chlorination rate. The surface chemical reaction of chlorine gas on the
surface of TiN particles was rate controlling in the initial stage and, during later
stage, internal (pore) diffusion through the intermediate product layer was rate
controlling step. The apparent activation energy (Ea) of about 10.97 kJ/mole was
obtained for the chlorination of TiN. The extent of chlorination of TiO0.02C0.13N0.85
was 93.5% at 400 °C in 60 minutes. The TiCl4 with the purity of about 99% was
eventually produced from ilmenite and the residue of the chlorination contained high
amounts of rear earth elements (REEs) as well as refractory metals. This research
demonstrated that a three-step process could be a feasible and sustainable method for
production of relatively pure TiCl4 from ilmenite. |
