As an important metal material, titanium is widely used in aviation, medical and chemical industries. However, the wastewater discharge of titanium has a potential impact on the environment, so the development of efficient titanium removal technology is particularly important. The combined extraction centrifugal extractor provides a new technical path for the extraction of titanium.

Environmental properties of titanium

Titanium is usually found in water in the form of titanate (TiO₄²⁻). Excessive titanium will not only affect the ecological balance of water, but also may be toxic to aquatic organisms. Therefore, treatment of titanium-containing wastewater is an important part of environmental protection.

Operation principle of combined extraction centrifugal extractor

The combined extraction centrifugal extractor uses centrifugal force to efficiently separate titanium ions from wastewater. The process includes:

1. Waste water feeding: The waste water containing titanium is injected into the equipment.

2. Centrifugal separation: The equipment rotates at high speed, and the titanium ion rapidly settles due to its high density.

3. Precipitation collection: The settling titanium precipitation is collected through the discharge system, which is convenient for subsequent treatment.

Optimized extraction conditions

In order to improve the extraction efficiency of titanium, the following conditions need to be optimized:

1. Centrifugal speed: between 4000-8000 rpm is recommended to speed up the settling speed of titanium.

2. Treatment time: Appropriate extension of treatment time can improve the extraction rate of titanium, the recommended time is 20-30 minutes.

3. pH adjustment: The separation effect of titanium is better in an acidic environment (pH 4-6).

Follow-up treatment and resource recovery of titanium

The extracted titanium precipitate can be treated by chemical reduction or roasting and other methods to realize the reuse of titanium, which can not only reduce environmental pollution, but also provide raw materials for related industries.

The study of titanium extraction from wastewater by combined extraction centrifugal extractor provides important technical support for environmental treatment. With the development of technology, its application prospect will be more extensive.
