·Background Ilmenite and rutile are naturally occurring titanium bearing heavy minerals Sri Lanka consists of ilmenite and rutile in placer deposits mainly along the northeast coast The commercial value of rutile is higher than ilmenite Therefore the current study focuses to upgrade Sri Lankan ilmenite ores using commercially available activated carbon as a
·Manavalakurichi ilmenite is richer in TiO 2 and has higher degree of weathering [] It contains higher amount of leucoxene/rutile and ferric to ferrous Fe 3 /Fe 2 is because of the presence of more pseudorutile Fe 2 Ti 3 O 9 The rate of reduction of ilmenite under varying atmosphere is found to depend upon the temperature reduction time and the

·The Höganäs process is a direct reduction method for production of sponge iron powder using magnetite ore Fe3O4 and carbon as raw materials The reduction process takes place in a gas fired tunnel kiln at around 1200°C for 60 hours producing a sponge iron cake that is crushed milled and magnetically separated from impurities
·The yield of oxygen from ilmenite reduction is dependent on the feedstock composition Ilmenite can readily be reduced thanks to its high Fe 2 content but other Fe 2 bearing minerals can also reduce albeit generating lower yields Allen et al 1994 Prospecting will therefore be required to evaluate a wide range of potential regions such as high titanium
