Disclosed is a method of producing titanium and titanium alloy nanopowder from titanium-containing slag through a shortened process. The method includes: (1) subjecting titanium-containing slag to high-temperature oxidation and enrichment and then melting to precipitate titanium-enriched slag; (2) subjecting the titanium-enriched slag to pulverization and gravity flotation; (3) carrying out secondary enrichment; (4) preparing a molten salt reaction system; (5) synthesizing titanium and salt-containing titanium alloy nanopowder by reduction reaction; and (6) vacuum filtering, pickling, washing and vacuum drying the salt-containing titanium alloy nanopowder; and then separating titanium alloy nanopowder from the molten salt. Using the present method, the titanium-containing slag can be continuously treated to produce titanium and titanium alloy nanopowder. It requires a shortened process, a simple equipment and low energy consumption. The process is environmentally friendly and produces excellent products without solids, gas or liquids that are harmful to environment.

Provided is a method for preparing rutile from acid-soluble titanium slag, including: grinding acid-soluble titanium slag; adding a sodium carbonate modifier, and performing microwave irradiation treatment in a microwave device; adding an ammonium bifluoride additive; and performing acid purification and calcination to obtain rutile. By means of a microwave heating mode, the equipment investment needed by the method is low, and the energy consumption is low. The purity of artificial rutile is more than 91%, byproducts are fewer, and the environmental pollution is low.
