Industrial – Other
Titanium is also a preferred metal in the Food and Pharmaceutical industry, Desalination market, as well as being used as sputtering targets.
The industrial applications for titanium continue to develop as time goes on. Some unique examples of where titanium is used today include:
FOOD AND PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRIES-Plants are constantly reviewing their equipment and the costs associated with their equipment. When a manufacturing/production environment is considered corrosive, and as a result is in need of regular maintenance, then the problem to solve would be "what material should the equipment be made of that would the best corrosion resistance, hence reducing downtown and maintenance costs?" In many cases in the food and pharmaceutical industries, the answer is "titanium".
DESALINATION-In many parts of the world, a large percentage of drinking water comes from flash desalination. Titanium fits extremely well in multi-stage evaporation plants due to the corrosion and erosion properties. Titanium is also very cost competitive in the condensers of these plants because of the corrosion properties allow a thinner walled tube than the copper-nickel tubing and the titanium tube life-span is virtually unlimited.
