Magnesite Applications

/images/news/master/2018-04-03_11-54-33_Magnesite Applications.jpg

Magnesite occurs as veins in and an alteration product of ultramafic rocks, serpentinite and other magnesium rich rock types in both contact and regional metamorphic terrains. These magnesites often are cryptocrystalline and contain silica in the form of opal or chert.

Magnesite is also present within the regolith above ultramafic rocks as a secondary carbonate within soil and subsoil, where it is deposited as a consequence of dissolution of magnesium-bearing minerals by carbon dioxide within groundwaters.

Similar to the production of lime, magnesite can be burned in the presence of charcoal to produce MgO, which, in the form of a mineral, is known as periclase. Large quantities of magnesite are burnt to make magnesium oxide: an important refractory material used as a lining in blast furnaces, kilns and incinerators.
Calcination temperatures determine the reactivity of resulting oxide products and the classifications of light burnt and dead burnt refer to the surface area and resulting reactivity of the product, typically as determined by an industry metric of the iodine number.
Magnesite has been used in flooring as a binder. It is used as a lining in furnaces and cement kilns. It also makes an excellent firebrick. Caustic calcined magnesia is used as a food supplement in fertilizers and for fillers in plastics, paints and paper. It is also used as a filler and catalyst in the production of synthetic rubber.

Raw magnesite is used for surface coatings and as a fire retardant. It is also used in ceramics, face powder, disinfectants, Epsom salts and boiler wrappings.

Magnesium sulfate or magnesium sulphate

Magnesium sulfate or magnesium sulphate

Magnesium sulfate (or magnesium sulphate) is an inorganic salt (chemical compound) containing magnesium, sulfur and oxygen, with the formula MgSO4. It is often encountered as the heptahydrate sulfate mineral epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), commonly called Epsom salt, taking its name from a bitter saline spring in Epsom in Surrey, England, where the salt was produced from the springs that arise where the porous chalk of the North Downs meets non-porous London clay. The monohydrate, MgSO4·H2O is found as the mineral kieserite. The overall global annual usage in the mid-1970s of the monohydrate more ...

Magnesite

Magnesite is a mineral with the chemical formula MgCO3 (magnesium carbonate). Mixed crystals of iron(II) carbonate and magnesite (mixed crystals known as ankerite) possess a layered structure: monolayers of carbonate groups alternate with magnesium monolayers as well as iron(II) carbonate monolayersManganese, cobalt and nickel may also occur in small amounts.

Magnetite Deposits

Magnetite is relatively frequent as a mineral, there are, however, only two types of economically important deposits:
The worlds largest reserves are found in deposits of the Veirsch type. These are strata-bound lensoid and nearly monomineralic bodies consisting of coarsely crystalline ,,spar,, magnesite hosted by marine platform sediments. Conspicuous are sedimentary and diagenetic features of the magnesite bearing suites, which indicate formation within a subtidal, evaporitic environment closely associated with sabkhas, mudbars or other inter- to supratidal highs. The coarse c more ...
Magnesium oxide

Magnesium oxide

Magnesium oxide, or magnesia, is a white hygroscopic solid mineral that occurs naturally as periclase and is a source of magnesium.
Formula: MgO
Molar mass: 40.3044 g/mol
IUPAC ID: Magnesium oxide
Melting point: 2,852 °C
Density: 3.58 g/cm³
Boiling point: 3,600 °C

Magnesia or magnesium oxide is an alkaline earth metal oxide. The majority of magnesium oxide produced today is obtained from the calcination of naturally occurring minerals. Magnesite, MgCO3, being the most common.
Both MgCO3 and Mg(OH)2 are converted to MgO by calcination. T more ...

Wastewater Treatment

Magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide can both be used in various ways for the treatment of wastewater

In order to repel the unpleasant odor from waste water its main sources H2S and ammonia must be eliminated. This can be achieved by the introduction of MgO in the system with a buffer solution of 9-9,5 pH prohibiting in this way the formation of H2S.
Corrosion of the utilities networks or Struvite tanks is also attributed to the formation of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) alkaline magnesium reagents can help in their protection either with continuous addition magnes more ...

Magnesium Oxide in Animal Feed Supplements

Magnesium is an essential nutrient for all animals, serving a variety of vital functions within the body. Inadequate magnesium in the diets of grazing animals can cause a serious metabolic disorder known as “Grass Tetany.” The rapid growth rate of grass in Spring means that pastures are often lacking in magnesium. Young grass is higher in simple carbohydrates and protein, but lower in most minerals. Grass tetany occurs when the level of magnesium in blood falls below a critical threshold. Providing a palatable magnesium supplement with high biological availability is an effective more ...
