I think I'd work backwards. There may be an elemental test for Ti, and
you could react the mixture with acid to quantitate the amount of
carbonate by CO2 release. The remainder would be CaO, though it would
possibly be lost in the process.

I don't recall the CaO + water reaction as being a quantitative
reaction -- that is to say, not all of it will react rapidly with water
to produce CaOH, some will always remain as CaO.

Furthermore, you have CaOH, now what? You can't titrate the resulting
base with acid and an indicator, because you still have carbonate.

And don't call me "Dear" unless you mean it. Its not fair to toy with
people's emotions so close to Valentines.

    ... Disperse the powder in water and sparge CO2 into the slurry and stir for several hours or overnight- dry the slurry then heat the powder to a temperature well below the decomposition temperature of CaCO3, but high enough to remove hydrated water (remember TiO2 will facilitate decomposition to CaO or some calcium titanate phase) - measure the weight gain.. ...
