Abstract
Projections of scrap and metal losses, based on the possible future pattern of the titanium industry, show that about 0. 7 lb per pound of mill product production will not be handled or reclaimed by any melting techniques to produce titanium ingots, castings or other melted products; nor will it be profitably sold outside the titanium industry. This type scrap could be considered a marginal raw material (recycle) and it will remain completely lost unless an extractive process is developed for reclamation through removal of undersirable alloying elements, tramps, and excess oxides.
