According to documents from Tronox Ltd, the vertically integrated mining and inorganic chemical business, the chloride process generates less waste, uses less energy, is less labor-intensive than the sulphate process, and permits the direct recycling of chlorine back into the production route. [...]the Chinese government is encouraging the expansion of chloride-route plants as a key part of its 12th Five Year Plan. [...]Chinese ilmenite imports actually increased last year compared with 2016, helped by small amounts of cheap low-quality material from Australia, as well as a flurry of ilmenite arriving from Sibelco’s Stradbroke operations as it prepared to shut down. [...]quarter production of rutile at Australia’s Iluka, a global supplier of titanium mineral sands, rose to 96,000 tonnes from 82,000 tonnes in the previous quarter.
