Chlor-alkali industry
The earliest, user of titanium in the chemical industry is the chlor-alkali industry. This includes the production of chlorine gas, chlorine oxides, pesticides, bleaching powder, etc. In the production of chlorine, titanium equipment and piping accounts for almost a quarter of its total mass'. Such as for metal anode electrolysis tank, ion membrane electrolysis tank and anode liquid pumps, column and tube wet chlorine cooler, chlorine wastewater dechlorination tower, chlorine cooling scrubber tower, refined brine preheater, vacuum dechlorination with pumps and valves and so on.
Soda ash industry
In the production of soda ash, titanium is mainly used in crystallisation external cooler, distillation tower top ammonia condenser, ammonium chloride mother liquor heater, flat plate heat exchanger, umbrella plate heat exchanger, carbonation tower cooling tube, carbon dioxide turbine compressor rotor impeller, lye pumps and so on.
Vacuum salt industry
Titanium ammonia evaporator, titanium preheater, titanium pre-cooler, titanium flange, titanium tube plate, titanium pump shell and titanium elbow.
Petroleum chemical fibre
At present, whether imported from abroad, or the domestic design and manufacture of polyester, polyamide, polyvinyl chloride and other petrochemical fibre enterprises have used some titanium equipment. Titanium equipment for the development of China's chemical fibre production has played a positive role in the development of $, especially for the safe and stable production, to improve product quality, to prevent premature corrosion failure of stainless steel, improve the service life of the equipment, reduce the parking and maintenance, and improve the overall economic efficiency, and has made a significant contribution.
Fine chemical industry
Propylene oxide device industrial raw materials is a strong corrosive medium, PO production of the two main raw materials used in liquid chlorine and propylene, these strong corrosive media laid the foundation for the corrosion of PO production equipment and pipelines, production in this process conditions, such as carbon steel, Al, Cu, Ni, stainless steel and other metals are unable to resist corrosion, the only titanium is the more ideal corrosion-resistant metal materials.
Inorganic salt industry
Inorganic salts mainly include chlorate and potassium salts. Domestic production of sodium chlorate in the past two years, the rapid development of the total production capacity exceeded 1 million t, and about 500,000 t in the expansion or preliminary work. Chlorate titanium equipment mainly includes electrolysis tank, titanium anode, reaction generator, evaporator, etc. Every 10,000t of sodium chlorate needs about 15t of titanium material.
Potash products include potassium chloride, potassium sulphate, potassium nitrate, potassium carbonate, etc. At present, the total production capacity of potassium nitrate and potassium carbonate in China is about 600,000 t. Titanium equipments are required for evaporators, preheating tanks and coolers in the production of potassium nitrate and potassium carbonate.
Other Industries
Titanium dioxide - titanium is used in film concentrators, calciner kiln feed tubes, centrifuge distributor discs, etc.
Urea--Titanium is used for urea synthesis tower lining, ammonia stripping tower, general decomposition tower heater, methylamine pump inlet and outlet valves and springs, high pressure mixer, etc.
Dyestuff--Titanium is used in serpentine tube heat exchanger, absorption tower, purification tower nozzle, fan, water ring vacuum pump, filter, etc.
Nitric acid--Titanium is used in nitric acid evaporator, nitrogen oxide tail gas preheater, nitric acid steam preheater, gas scrubber, fast cooler, condenser, turbine blower, pumps, valves, pipelines and so on.
