Methods of manufacturing a composite ferrite of two or more of metal oxides prepared from a chloride solution containing ions of these metals, one of the metals being zinc. The methods comprise (a) ejecting a high temperature gas to the solution or atomizing the solution and (b) supplying the atomized gas to a combustion gas containing oxygen, to evaporate moisture from mist particles of the solution in a short period of time so that the zinc chloride in the solution is not substantially evaporated and to induce a heat decomposition or chemical reaction for the remaining metal salt particles, thereby forming a composite ferrite.

A method for producing titanium fluoride comprises: a dissolution process, wherein iron-containing titanium material is dissolved in solutions containing hydrofluoric acid, fluoride solutions being produced; a first crystallization and separation process, wherein ferric fluoride is crystallized and ferric fluoride crystals thus obtained are separated from the fluoride solutions by cooling the fluoride solutions, crude titanium fluoride solutions being produced; a second crystallization and separation process, wherein a mixed salt of (NH.sub.4).sub.2 TiF.sub.6 and (NH).sub.3 FeF.sub.6 is crystallized and separated by mixing ammonium fluoride solutions with the crude titanium fluoride solutions to obtain a mixture and concentrating the mixture; a first pyrolysis process, wherein the ammonium fluoride salt is pyrolyzed at a temperature of from 300.degree. to 800.degree. C. in a stream of dry gas after having dried the ammonium fluoride, solid ferric fluoride (FeF.sub.3) and gaseous TF.sub.4, HF and NH.sub.3 being produced; a condensation and separation process, wherein the gaseous TiF.sub.4, HF and NH.sub.3 are condensed at a temperature of from 20.degree. to 280.degree. C. and followed by the TiF.sub.4 separation of solid.

A method and an apparatus for continuously manufacturing non-fired pellets, which comprise: continuously supplying green pellets containing a carbonating binder into a vertical type reactor to continuously pass the green pellets sequentially through a predrying zone, a carbonating zone and a drying zone in the vertical type reactor; blowing a predrying gas having a relative humidity of up to 70% and a temperature of from 40.degree. to 250.degree. C. into the predrying zone to predry the green pellets therein until the water content of the green pellets in the predyring zone falls within the range of from 1 to 7 wt. %; blowing a carbonating gas comprising carbon dioxide gas of from 5 to 95 vol. % and saturated steam of from 5 to 95 vol. % and having a temperature of from 30.degree. to 98.degree. C. into the carbonating zone to carbonate the carbonating binder contained in the green pellets therein; and blowing a drying gas at a temperature of from 100.degree. to 300.degree. C. into the drying zone to harden the green pellets therein, thereby continuously manufacturing non-fired pellets.

A treating furnace for manufacturing non-fired iron-bearing pellets comprising a green iron-bearing pellet inlet at one end thereof and a non-fired iron-bearing pellet outlet at the other end. Green iron-bearing pellets are continuously fed into the treating furnace through said inlet and after being heated are discharged through said outlet. The treating furnace contains at least one heating gas blowing port for blowing heating gas into the furnace and at least one heating gas discharge port for discharging said gas after it has heated the pellets. The furnace also contains a preheating zone and at least one preheating gas blowing port and at least one preheating gas discharge port to pass preheating gas through said preheating zone. The heating gas discharged from the heating gas discharge port is used as the preheating gas. The gas discharged from the heating gas discharge port is admixed with the gas discharged from the preheating gas discharge port and then the thus mixed gas is utilized as the feed preheating gas to the preheating gas blowing (inlet) port.

A method and an apparatus for manufacturing a non-fired iron-bearing pellet, which comprise: supplying a green iron-bearing pellet containing a hydraulic binder and water into a treating furnace provided with a green iron-bearing pellet inlet at an end thereof and a non-fired iron-bearing pellet outlet at the other end thereof and having at least one heating gas blowing port and at least one heating gas discharge port, blowing through said blowing port into said treating furnace a gas containing a saturated steam at a temperature substantially equal to the heating target temperature of the green pellets, replenishing the heat of said gas lost through heat exchange with said green pellet with the condensation heat produced from condensation of at least part of the steam contained in said gas through heat exchange with said green pellets, and holding said green pellets at said target temperature for a prescribed period of time to harden said green pellets, thereby continuously manufacturing a non-fired iron-bearing pellets. The green iron-bearing pellets introduced into the furnace are first pretreated by contact with the gas which had been used to heat the already preheated pellets.

A grain coke is packed in a vertical furnace between a pair of opposite electrodes for passing current through the coke, thus heating the same to a temperature of above 1400.degree. C, preferably 1500.degree. C for more than 10 minutes. Coke is loaded into the furnace from an upper portion and heat treated coke is cooled and then discharged from the bottom. Inert or reducing gas may be introduced into the lower portion of the furnace and discharged from the upper portion thereby cooling heat treated coke and preheating loaded coke.
