LOW HEAT CALCINATION
Magnesium ( Chloride ) Brines ?
In the thermohydrolysis step, the magnesium chloride compound
is heated to a temperature of at least 300°C
In the thermohydrolysis step magnesium chloride
reacts with H20 to form MgO and HCl
How about a Magnesium Carbonate ?
Did you know that a low heat calcination of - MgCO3 using,
500–700°C will decarbonize into MgO.
While normal MgO is usually formed at over 1000°C
How could MgO be exploited ?
Could one use MgO as a catalyst workhorse ?
Abstract
MgO first dissolve into the aqueous phase, (ii) the dissolved magnesium ions form complexes with borate ions in the wastewater, (iii) these complexes precipitate out of solution as hydroxides when they react with free borate ions. The kinetic model also revealed that the higher surface area of LC-MgO enhanced the rate of dissolution and precipitation of magnesium ions, which increased the rate of boron removal.
