ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE TECHNOLOGY FOR SYNTHESIZING TITANIUM TRICHLORIDE FOR THE NEEDS OF VARIOUS INDUSTRIES

The authors have assessed the possibility of electrochemical synthesis a wide range reagents based on titanium trichloride as part work. Despite growing demand for and its derivatives, production technology this reagent has not been improved long period. Traditional technologies feature high environmental industrial hazards, process itself energy consumption complex hardware scheme. As preliminary work, obtaining from aqueous solutions tetrachloride is established, while proposed distinguished by reduced safety. At first stage experiments in anodic dissolution aluminum, binary aluminum chloride are obtained. degree conversion TiCl4 → -TiCl3 65%–35% current density 10–30 A/dm2, respectively. In reducing an solution with iron electrodes, yield approximately 76%–66% resulting heavily contaminated (II) compounds. results show efficiency processes purification wastewater galvanic chromium (VI) For high-purity trichloride, electrodes used, 59%–3% Depending electrode material, obtained that can be used to produce dioxide dye-sensitized solar cells, water purification, Ziegler-Natta catalyst organic synthesis.
