Titanium, with its excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, is widely used in many fields. Particularly in chemical applications, titanium can replace stainless steel as a corrosion-resistant material, significantly extending the service life of equipment, reducing costs, preventing pollution, and improving productivity. In recent years, the scope of titanium use in the chemical industry in China has been expanding, and its consumption has been increasing year by year, making titanium one of the primary anti-corrosion materials in chemical equipment. As a corrosion-resistant structural material for chemical installations, titanium has become the ideal material in chemical equipment.
Chlor-Alkali Industry
Titanium's earliest application in the chemical industry was in the chlor-alkali industry, including the production of chlorine, chlorine oxides, pesticides, and bleaching powder. In chlorine production, titanium equipment and pipelines constitute nearly a quarter of the total equipment mass. This includes metal anode electrolytic cells, ion membrane electrolytic cells, anolyte pumps, tube-type wet chlorine coolers, dechlorination towers for chlorine wastewater, chlorine gas cooling scrubbers, refined brine preheaters, vacuum dechlorination pumps, and valves.
Soda Ash Industry
In soda ash production, titanium is primarily used for crystallizer external coolers, ammonia condensers on distillation towers, ammonium chloride mother liquor heaters, plate heat exchangers, umbrella plate heat exchangers, carbonization tower cooling pipes, carbon dioxide turbine compressor rotors, and alkali pumps.
Vacuum Salt Production
Titanium is used in ammonia evaporators, preheaters, precoolers, flanges, tube sheets, pump housings, and elbows.
Petrochemical and Synthetic Fiber Industry
Currently, titanium equipment is used in both imported and domestically designed polyester, nylon, and vinylon synthetic fiber enterprises. The use of titanium equipment has played an active role in the development of China's synthetic fiber production, especially in maintaining safe, stable, and continuous production, improving product quality, preventing premature corrosion and failure of stainless steel, extending equipment lifespan, reducing downtime and maintenance, and improving overall economic efficiency.
Fine Chemical Industry
In the production of propylene oxide (PO), titanium is the ideal anti-corrosion metal material for handling the strong corrosive media involved, such as liquid chlorine and propylene. Using carbon steel, aluminum, copper, nickel, or stainless steel would be ineffective against corrosion.
Inorganic Salt Industry
Inorganic salts include chlorates and potassium salts. China's production capacity for sodium chlorate has exceeded 1 million tons, with around 500,000 tons under expansion or in preliminary work. Titanium equipment used includes electrolytic cells, titanium anodes, reactors, evaporators, etc. Each 10,000 tons of sodium chlorate production requires approximately 15 tons of titanium.
Potassium salt products include potassium chloride, potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, and potassium carbonate. China's total production capacity for potassium nitrate and potassium carbonate is about 600,000 tons. Titanium equipment is required for evaporators, preheat tanks, and coolers in their production processes.
Other Industries
Titanium alloy tubes, flanges, various bolt accessories, and other applications in the oil industry are becoming more widespread. As titanium processing techniques and technologies improve, titanium alloy materials and equipment will see even broader use.
