Ilmenite (FeTiO₃) is one of the most important titanium-bearing minerals used in the production of titanium dioxide pigment and titanium metal. The beneficiation of ilmenite involves several specialized methods designed to separate it from gangue minerals and increase the titanium content. Below are the four major methods used in ilmenite beneficiation.
Most commercial ilmenite beneficiation operations employ combinations of these methods in integrated circuits:
Beach Sand Processing:
Raw Sand → Spiral Concentration → Magnetic Separation → Electrostatic Separation → High-Grade Ilmenite
Hard Rock Ilmenite Processing:
Crushing/Grinding → Gravity Concentration → Magnetic Separation → Flotation → Ilmenite Concentrate
Weathered Ore Processing:
Scrubbing → Desliming → Spiral Concentration → Magnetic Enhancement → Final Cleaning
Each beneficiation method has its specific advantages and limitations, and the selection depends on the ore characteristics, desired product quality, available infrastructure, and economic considerations. Modern ilmenite processing plants often combine multiple techniques to maximize recovery and grade.
