A ball valve for use in the pressure acid leaching of nickel ores is disclosed. The valve has a valve body and a ball centrally positioned in the valve body, which has a central passage rotatable in the valve body between open and closed positions. At least one seat is disposed between the ball and the valve body. The ball and seat each comprise a titanium substrate and an ultrafine or nanostructured titania coating. The titania can include from 5 to 45 volume percent of a second phase material that is immiscible with the titania and exhibits corrosion resistance.

A process for leaching a value metal from a titanium-bearing ore material comprising the step of leaching the ore material at atmospheric pressure with a lixiviant comprising a chloride and hydrochloric acid is disclosed. The leaching conditions are such that titanium is leached and remains in solution. The temperature is maintained at less that 85° C., and the concentration of hydrochloric acid is preferably less than 20% (mass ratio). The preferred chloride is magnesium chloride. The lixiviant may contain oxidant e.g. sodium chlorate or chlorine.

There are provided processes for treating red mud. For example, the processes can comprise leaching red mud with HCl so as to obtain a leachate comprising ions of a first metal (for example aluminum) and a solid, and separating said solid from said leachate. Several other metals can be extracted from the leachate (Fe, Ni, Co, Mg, rare earth elements, rare metals, etc.). Various other components can be extracted from solid such as TiO2, SiO2 etc.

Provided is a method for preparing cerium oxide and zirconium oxide based composite rare earth oxide. The method comprises: (1) preparing a zircon salt solution; (2) prepare an activating agent solution by mixing urea and sulfuric acid or sulfate; (3) heating the zircon salt solution at a room temperature, dropwise adding the activating agent solution slowly, controlling the temperature rise speed to make the temperature raised to 60 degrees centigrade after the addition of the activating agent solution is finished, continuing to raising the temperature to 90 to 95 degrees centigrade, and keeping the temperature for 20-100min to form a basic zirconium sulfate composite salt precursor solution; (4) preparing soluble cerate and rare earth metal salt, adding the soluble cerate and the rare earth metal salt into the basic zirconium sulfate composite salt precursor solution, and performing precipitation by using a soluble hydroxide or ammonia solution; and (5) filtering and cleaning precipitates, and then, calcining the precipitates. Also provided is a cerium oxide and zirconium oxide based composite rare earth oxide prepared by using the method.

The present invention is drawn to a method for removing colloidal titanium dioxide and titanium oxychloride from by-product hydrochloric acid. The method includes adding phosphate ion source and quaternary amine to the by-product acid to cause the titanium dioxide and the titanium oxychloride to form a precipitate. The precipitate can then be separated from the acid, thus producing a decontaminated hydrochloric acid product with reduced levels of titanium.
