The invention relates to a method for treating chlorination 
tail gas in chlorination-process 
titanium dioxide 
powder production procedures. 
Carbon monoxide in the chlorination 
tail gas can be used as a heat source, and byproduct 
hydrochloric acid which is obtained after the chlorination 
tail gas is subjected to acid 
pickling can be desorbed to obtain high-purity 
hydrogen chloride by the aid of the method. The method includes carrying out acid 
pickling and alkali washing on the chlorination tail gas, then combusting the chlorination tail gas in a 
combustion furnace, feeding generated hot 
flue gas into a 
reboiler and ultimately venting the 
flue gas; filtering the byproduct 
hydrochloric acid obtained after the chlorination tail gas is subjected to acid picking, carrying out heat exchange on the byproduct 
hydrochloric acid, then feeding the byproduct hydrochloric acid into a 
desorption tower, continuously heating and evaporating the byproduct hydrochloric acid by the aid of a 
reboiler to obtain 
hydrogen chloride gas, exhausting the 
hydrogen chloride gas from the top of the 
desorption tower and draining evaporated diluted hydrochloric acid from the bottom of the 
desorption tower; carrying out heat exchange on the diluted hydrochloric acid by the aid of a double-effect 
heat exchanger and cooling the diluted hydrochloric acid until the temperature of the diluted hydrochloric acid reaches the normal temperature; condensing the 
hydrogen chloride gas to obtain high-purity 
hydrogen chloride gas. The method has the advantages that carbon resources can be effectively utilized; the recycled hydrochloric acid can be converted into the high-purity 
hydrogen chloride, and accordingly the 
resource utilization rate can be increased; the desorbed diluted hydrochloric acid is used as acid 
pickling absorption liquid, accordingly, the recycling rate of the byproduct hydrochloric acid can be increased, 
discharge pressures can be relieved, and the production cost can be lowered.
