The sulfate process generally comprises the steps of (1) dissolving a titanium slag or raw ilmenite ore into sulfuric acid to obtain a titanium sulfate solution, (2) adding waste iron or waste aluminum to the titanium sulfate solution to chemically reduce ferric ion contained as an impurity in the solution to the divalent (ferrous) state in order to prevent precipitation of iron and to increase the degree of whiteness of the titanium oxide product, followed by cooling the solution to precipitate and remove ferrous sulfate, (3) heat-hydrolyzing the titanium sulfate solution from which ferrous sulfate had been removed, followed by precipitating hydrous titanium oxide, which is then filtered and washed, and (4) then calcining the washed hydrous titanium oxide at 800 to 1,100° C. to obtain anhydrous titanium oxide.
