The reaction of ilmenite raw materials with sulfuric acid has been investigated to find out the influence of diffusion processes on the course of this reaction. Three different laboratory methods were used to initiate the reaction: mixing ilmenite with 83–85% sulfuric acid at a temperature of 80 ◦C, mixing ilmenite with 90% sulfuric acid at temperatures of 20–40 ◦C and adding water, and mixing ilmenite with water and adding 95% sulfuric acid. Changes of thermal power during the process (thermokinetics) were studied with the use of calorimetry. It was found that diffusion processes play an important role when the reaction is initiated by mixing ilmenite with water followed by the addition of sulfuric acid and are less important when the reaction is initiated by mixing ilmenite with concentrated sulfuric acid followed by the addition of water. To explain the influence of diffusion processes on the reaction, the model calculations based on mass and heat balance equations were involved. Model calculations showed that the diffusion and mass transport processes are so fast that the reaction kinetics is mainly influenced by the reaction on the surface of ilmenite particles. The adopted model of calculations showed a very good agreement with experimental results.
