PROCESS FOR PREPARING TITANIUM(IV) OXIDE {TiO2} AND APPARATUS FOR MAKING THE SAME

A method and apparatus for producing TiO2 by reacting O2 and TiCl4 in a reactor tube wherein pressure fluctuations in the flow of fluids through the reactor tube are sensed and output signals are generated proportional to the sensed pressure fluctuations. The flow of at least one of the TiCl4 or O2...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method and apparatus for producing TiO2 by reacting O2 and TiCl4 in a reactor tube wherein pressure fluctuations in the flow of fluids through the reactor tube are sensed and output signals are generated proportional to the sensed pressure fluctuations. The flow of at least one of the TiCl4 or O2 is then varied through the reactor tube in response to predetermined pressure fluctuations so as to increase the efficiency of the reaction between TiCl4 and the O2. The efficiency of the reaction between O2 and TiCl4 in the reactor tube is achieved by a control apparatus operably connected to the reactor assembly which is capable of monitoring pressure fluctuations in TCl4 and O2 through the reactor assembly so that the flow of at least one of the TiCl4 or O2 can be varied in response to predetermined pressure fluctuations. The control apparatus includes a sensor assembly, a signal conditioning unit and a signal processing unit.
