Abstract: The mirowave heating characteristics of vanadium and titanium magetite and application satus of microwave heating technology in vanadium and titanium magnetite metallurgy are summarized.According to the reality of rich vanadium-titanium magnetite in Panzhihua-Xichang erea unrealized iron,vanadium,titanium effective recovery at the same,and combined with the characteristics of microwave heating such as selective heating,internal heating,strengthening leaching,and the exist problem on equipment in small scale,it is pointed out that the key research direction on microwave heating technology is microwave heating reducing the vanadium-titanium magnetite and ilmenite,microwave strengthening leaching preparing rich-titanium material and other metallurgy operation about preparing high value-added products.
