Recent Progress in Titanium Extraction and Recycling

However, this nominal recycling rate does not reflect the actual material flow of titanium and its alloys. Because titanium is an expensive metal with a price above US$10/kg, recycling is well established in the smelting process for the primary metal (titanium sponge) and the machining industry for components.

Chemistry of Titanium

Titanium is made by a batch process. In the production of iron, for example, there is a continuous flow through the Blast Furnace. Iron ore and coke and limestone are added to the top, and iron and slag removed from the bottom. This is a very efficient way of making something. With titanium, however, you make it one batch at a time.
