dc.description.abstract	This investigation identified that ion-exchange chromatography can efficiently remove iron from the leaching of ilmenite by HCl. The strong basic anionic-exchange resin IRA 410 Cl is capable of retaining the negatively charged iron chloro complex from 20% HCl leachate of ilmenite. Oxidative conversion of Fe2+ to Fe3+ facilitates the iron exchange to the resin, resulting in an iron-free solution of titanium oxychloride (TiOCl2). This can be directly used to produce synthetic rutile. The procedure is relatively simple and generates little acid waste.	en_US
