Kazakhstan will start production of titanium dioxide by 2021 Kazakhstan production titanium dioxide
MOSCOW – Tenir-Logistic intends to create a chemical-technological complex for the production of special steels and titanium dioxide in the special economic zone Pavlodar, reports Lkmportal . Kazakhstan production titanium dioxide
The construction and equipment of the site will require USD2.3 billion.
Work on the project has been going on for more than 10 years, and by 2018 the company set up pilot production at sites in Tomsk and Novosibirsk, and also developed technologies for obtaining final products – steel, ferroalloys, titanium dioxide , vanadium pentoxide and silicon dioxide.
The main development and research work was completed in 2015.
The creation of titanium dioxide production is supposed to be carried out in three stages. At the first stage, the complex will produce about 60 thousand tons of pure product – a semi-finished pigment, at the second – 300 thousand tons of titanium dioxide, at the third – 600 thousand tons.
To implement the three stages, USD2.3 billion is required. It is planned to spend about USD400 million for the first stage.
The concentrate deposit is located 1300 km from the Pavlodar zone. Equipment was purchased for the plant, 80% of which was purchased in China.
Information about the appearance of titanium dioxide production in Kazakhstan appeared in 2012 – Tenir-Logistic at that time was looking for investors to create a plant based on the ores of the Zhambyl titanium-magnesium ore deposit Tymlai.
Four years later, Kazinform news agency reported on the upcoming construction of a mining and processing plant at the site of the Tymlay titanium-magnetite deposit in the Kordai district of the Zhambyl region.
At the beginning of April 2017, the details of the project being implemented in the Pavlodar zone appeared . It was planned that the complex will produce 250 thousand tons of titanium dioxide and 900 thousand tons of special steels.
The volume of investment in the project should reach 782 billion tenge (almost 140 billion rubles, USD2.13 billion). The first products will enter the market in 2020. Design work is carried out by a company from Hong Kong.
