Abstract

[Problem] To provide a technique for manufacturing a high-titanium-content feedstock by efficiently separating out and removing metal impurities from a titanium-containing feedstock such as titanium slag or ilmenite. [Solution] A method for improving the quality of a titanium-containing feedstock. In said method, impurities in a titanium-containing feedstock that contains slag are selectively separated out and removed as chlorides, yielding a high-titanium-content feedstock. Said method is characterized in that the titanium-containing feedstock is subjected to an oxidation treatment prior to selective chlorination. Also, in this method, the oxidation treatment and the selective-chlorination treatment are performed simultaneously.
