Van Arkel process:Titanium metal is purified by this method. When the impure titanium metal is heated with iodine at a temperature of 250∘ C, volatile titanium tetra-iodide is formed TiI4. The impurities are left behind, as they do not react with iodine.The titanium tetra-iodide vapour is passed over a hot tungsten filament at 1400∘ C. The vapour is decomposed and pure titanium is deposited on the filament and is removed. The iodide reused.
