The Fars agency revealed that the engineer, Laila Abadi, “acquired the technology for the production of strategic titanium dioxide, making it unnecessary to import this material after entering the mass production stage.”
In a report, the Fars news agency said: “This girl, who owns an industrial plant for producing the mineral chromite sand, has been able to meet a large part of Iran’s demand for the substance. this and reduce its imports from abroad. , as this substance is used in the automobile and steel industries. ” steel, and the manufacture of fire -resistant materials.
According to “Fare”, titanium dioxide is used as a coloring material in the manufacture of dyes, non-combustible materials, porcelain and ceramics, and it can also be used in the manufacture of cosmetic and medical-sanitary preparations if the its purity. “
And the Iranian agency stated that “the engineer, Laila Abadi, hails from the city of Tabriz in northwestern Iran, and has dreamed since her childhood of becoming a director of an industrial factory, and she achieved her dream and became the owner of a factory. to make chromite mineral sand, which is used as a fire-resistant material in the metal casting industry, in addition to continuing his academic studies, since he is also a Ph.D. student in Materials Engineering at the University of Tabriz ”.
The young Iranian engineer indicated that “he was interested in industrial work since he was young, he studied metallurgy in Tabriz and obtained a master’s degree, and after obtaining this certificate, he worked for four years in a metal foundry, before opening a small one. factory. for the production of fire-resistant sand, which included only two workers beside him, and was eventually able to convert this small factory into a plant to produce abundant chromite mineral sand, and founded the knowledge company that “Raymond” owns the plant. .
And Leela Abadi added explaining: “The State of South Africa is the country that produces and exports this substance to the world, and it is exported to Germany, Spain, Turkey and the rest of the world because of the quality of its production. And Hormozgan, so we started to import this material from these provinces, and the mineral chromite sand we made in our factory continued to supply the local market with a large part of its needs, so the factory makes agricultural tractors in Iran today. secure your need for this material from our factory. ” The factory currently produces 1,000 tons of this material. Item It is scheduled to increase production to 3000 thousand tons by the end of the current year of Iran, which will end at the end of the winter season, with the possibility of increasing production volume to 10 thousand tons as well, according to “Fare” .
Abadi confirmed that “he plans to export products to international markets”, as “so far he has been able to export 200 tonnes of chromite mineral sand to Iraq, Azerbaijan and Tajikistan, and is negotiating with Turkish company to also export this product to Turkey. . ” . ”
In the context of talking about titanium dioxide, the young Iranian engineer explained that “his knowledge company, Raymond, developed the technology to make this substance in his laboratory and produce it, and he is now looking for a sponsor. . and investors to launch prosperous production lines that will prevent the country from importing this substance ”. The strategy from abroad ”, noting that“ countries such as Germany, Australia, China and Russia are among the producers of titanium dioxide, and Iran annually consumes 30,000 tons of this substance, and the Turkey consumes 50,000 tons of this substance, and this substance is extracted from mine rocks and ilmenite. ”
And he continued: “In your company there is a research and development department and its mission is to conduct studies and research on nanomaterials and gain the knowledge and technology to make them, including, for example, chromium. oxide and boron oxide, which are materials. imported from abroad ”, noting that“ his company is also currently working on this project ”.
And he indicated that “the most important purpose of the establishment of this company and this factory is to generate employment opportunities for young university graduates who are considered valuable capital for any of the countries.”
