Abstract
A process and system for recovering titanium dioxide and other value metals from a titanium bearing solid is disclosed. The process includes leaching the solid in hydrochloric acid to produce a leachate comprising undissolved solids and a leach solution comprising the titanium dioxide and the value metals, wherein the hydrochloric acid concentration is maintained above a value required to maintain the titanium dioxide and the value metals dissolved in the leach solution at atmospheric pressure. The leachate is separated into the leach solution and the undissolved solids. The concentration of hydrochloric acid concentration in the leach solution is reduced to recover titanium dioxide by hydrolysis and precipitation to produce a titanium dioxide rich slurry. In a preferred embodiment, HCl is recovered with a matrix solution.
