Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved process for the preparation of magnesia (MgO). More particularly, the invention relates to an improved process for the preparation of MgO of high purity from Mg(OH) 2 without the need to wash Mg(OH) 2 or MgO.
- MgO magnesia
- Magnesia is an important compound that finds application in various industries. Magnesium oxide has the highest melting point of the moderately priced oxides and is therefore an important raw material for refractory bricks and other materials. It is the only material apart from ZrO 2 that can withstand long-term heating above 2000 0 C.
- Magnesia bricks have a high heat storage capacity and a high thermal conductivity. They are used in efficient off-peak storage heaters. The heat generated by a heating element is transferred to the magnesia brick and increases its temperature. Thermal conductivity is increased by a high periclase content and a low porosity. The specific heat is only slightly lowered by SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 , but is significantly lowered by CaO,
- MgO can be pressure hydrated to form Mg(OH) 2 . It can also be converted into anhydrous MgCl 2 through the reaction of eq. 1 (Electrolytic Production of Magnesium, Kh. L. Strelets, Keter Publishing House Jerusalem Ltd., 1977, p 28)
- MgO + Cl 2 + CO ⁇ MgCl 2 + CO 2 + 70.8 cal/mole eq. 1
- anhydrous MgCl 2 can be converted into Mg and Cl 2 by electrolysis (eq. 2)
- MgO can be thermally reduced with Si to obtain Mg.
- MgCO 3 magnesite
- the main drawback of this method is that magnesite ore can have high levels of impurity.
- the highest quality magnesites, particularly those for refractory applications, are needed for a magnesia product with a high MgO content, a CaOiSiO 2 mass ratio of 2-3, and low contents of
- Magnetic separation reduces iron concentration but is effective only when the iron is present in the form of discrete ferromagnetic minerals rather than as ferrous carbonate. Due to all this, high purity magnesia is difficult to produce by this process and most such magnesia has less than 95% purity.
- Sulmag II the Sinter Magnesite Process, Sulzer Brothers Ltd., Winterthur, Switzerland
- Dissolved magnesium chloride is obtained by selective extraction with recycled NH 4 Cl solution (eqs. 3, 4) and all insoluble impurities are removed through filtration.
- Needle-shaped crystals of nesquehonite (MgCO 3 • 3 H 2 O ) are precipitated out in the reactor and filtered.
- Caustic magnesia with a high specific surface area is obtained by heating the nesquehonite.
- MgCO 3 > MgO + CO 2 (eq. 3) 2 NH 4 Cl + MgO + H 2 O + Contaminants ⁇ 2 NH 4 OH + MgCl 2 + Tailings
- the main drawback of the process is that the process is very sensitive to the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and to the temperature.
- the stability of the metastable solution of magnesium bicarbonate decreases markedly as the temperature rises above normal room temperature.
- the bulk density of the MgO would be too low for refractory applications.
- the main drawbacks of the above process are that a supply of freshwater (> 40 m per tonne MgO) is required to wash the Mg(OH) 2 and to produce the milk of lime.
- High- purity limestone or dolomite deposits should be available in the vicinity; they are calcined and slaked to provide Ca(OH) 2 as the precipitating agent and should therefore contain minimal quantities of elements that form insoluble carbonates, sulfates, etc.
- the freshwater also requires to be decarbonated.
- caustic and sintered magnesia produced from seawater usually contain ca. 0.2 % B 3 O 3 and small amounts of CaO, SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , and Fe 2 O 3 derived from the limestone or wastes in the seawater.
- the B 3 O 3 content of the magnesia is also generally lowered to ca. 0.05 % by using a 5-12 % excess of lime for precipitation (overliming); this increases the pH to 12 and minimizes the adsorption of boron
- the water evaporates from the atomized brine droplets leaving a perforated chloride crust which reacts with the steam to form MgO and HCl.
- the crude product is washed with water and hydrated in a stirred tank, and then concentrated in a thickener. The resulting slurry is difficult to filter and is washed and dewatered in a two-stage vacuum drum filter.
- the calcined product typically contains > 99.5 wt% MgO, ⁇ 1 wt %
- 2 ⁇ 3 specific surface area is 2 - 50 m /g, the loose bulk density ranges from 0.8 to 0.2 g/cm .
- Patent No. 6,776,972, DT. 17-08-2004 wherein Vohra et al. have described the use of HCl gas generated from spray pyrolysis for reaction with limestone to prepare CaCl 2 which can then be used to desulfate sea/sub-soil bittern for the facile production of carnallite double salt wherefrom KCl can be produced.
- the problem of spray calcination however, remains.
- addition compounds with ammonia include MgCl 2 .6NH 3 , MgCl 2 .2NH 3 and MgCl 2 -NH 3 are obtained by the reaction between anhydrous MgCl 2 and NH 3 gas in a closed system. It will be evident that magnesium complexes only form under certain specific conditions only. Reference may be made to a paper " Effect of pH on the Growth of Mg(OH) 2 Crystals in an Aqueous Environment at 60° C" by V. A. Phillips et. al. in " Journal of Crystal Growth” 41 (1977) 228-234 wherein magnesium hydroxide was precipitated at 60° C at various constant pH levels in the range 8.7 to 12.5 from magnesium chloride and ammonium hydroxide. The results showed that the particle morphology, average diameter, diameter to thickness ratio and surface area varied with pH. No mention is made of any process of preparation of MgO from the hydroxide.
- the method allows the manufacture of Mg(OH) 2 without impurities such as Fe, Mn, Al, and Ca.
- impurities such as Fe, Mn, Al, and Ca.
- the preparation of pure Mg(OH) 2 would no doubt have involved the washing of the solid to remove adhering NH 4 Cl, MgCl 2 , etc. No mention is made of any process that produces MgO from the crude unwashed Mg(OH) 2 .
- the main object of the present invention is to provide an improved process for the preparation of magnesia from magnesium chloride via intermediate formation of magnesium hydroxide wherein no washing is required either of the magnesium hydroxide or of the magnesia while at the same time obtaining MgO of very high purity.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to dispense with the tedious process of washing of magnesium hydroxide resorted to in the prior art.
- Yet another object is to use aqueous ammonia in a reaction with magnesium chloride. Yet another object is to drive the equilibrium-controlled reaction between magnesium chloride and ammonia to >85% formation Of Mg(OH) 2 under ambient conditions, through use of a small excess of ammonia.
- Yet another object is to recover the magnesium hydroxide precipitate thus formed by rapid filtration and subjecting the crude solid directly to calcination after drying. Yet another object is to exploit the sublimation property of ammonium chloride to expel it during calcinations and to obtain directly the magnesia of high purity.
- Yet another object is to utilize the by-product CaCl 2 liquor, with or without clarification, for desulphatation of raw bittern as described in the prior art, to facilitate crystallization of carnallite double salt and also to minimize sulphate impurity in end bittern.
- Yet another object is to utilize the end bittern containing 440-480 gpl Of MgCl 2 , which is nearly free of other impurities, as a raw material directly for the preparation of MgO having >98% purity.
- Yet another object is to obtain high yields MgO having purity > 99% and very low B 2 O 3 impurity directly upon calcination, useful for refractory applications.
- Still another object is to produce high purity magnesium products such as milk of magnesia, magnesium metal, Mg(OH) 2 fire retardant, etc., utilizing the MgO of the present invention.
- the aim of the present invention is directed to provide an improved process for the preparation of MgO of high purity from salt bitterns via intermediate formation of Mg(OH) 2 obtained from the reaction of MgCl 2 and lime, albeit indirectly, i.e., MgCl 2 is first reacted with NH 3 in aqueous medium and the slurry is then filtered with ease.
- the resultant NH 4 Cl-containing filtrate is then treated with any lime, preferably the most inexpensive lime, to regenerate NH 3 while the lime itself gets transformed into CaCl 2 that is used for desulphatation of bittern so as to recover carnallite and thereafter MgCl 2 of desired quality required in the present invention.
- the crude Mg(OH) 2 is dried and calcined directly to produce pure MgO, taking advantage of the fact that adhering impurities in the Mg(OH) 2 either volatilize away or get transformed into the desired product, i.e., MgO.
- the present invention provides an improved process for the preparation of MgO, the said process comprising the steps of: i) desulphating brine or bittern with calcium chloride, ii) evaporating the clarified brine/bittern after separation of gypsum to separate out the common salt and carnallite (KCl.MgCl 2 .6H 2 O), iii) recovering MgCl 2 rich and other salt free end bittern from step (ii), iv) further evaporating end bittern of step (iii) to obtain crystalline

- step (viii) absorbing the hot sublimed vapor OfNH 4 Cl generated in step (vii) from the calciner into the NH ⁇ Cl/residual NH 4 OH filtrate of step (vi) to further enrich the filtrate in NH 4 CI and also for heating up the filtrate, ix) treating the above said hot filtrate with lime to obtain CaCl 2 solution and ammonia vapor, x) using the ammonia vapor obtained in step (ix) in a process step (v) to complete the loop while using the by-product CaCl 2 solution in step (i).
- bittern used in step (i) is obtained from ocean brine, sea brine, sub-soil brine or lake brine.
- the sulphate-containing bitterns used in step (i) are desulphated in the density range of 29-32 0 Be'.
- the carnallite (KCLMgCl 2 .6H 2 O) obtained in step (ii) is crystallized between 32-36 0 Be' either through solar or forced evaporation and the end bittern in step (iii) having density of 35.5-36.0 0 Be' contains 450-460 gpl Of MgCl 2 , 5-10 gpl of NaCl, 5-10gpl of KCl, 5-15 gpl of Ca, 0-5 gpl of sulphate, 6-7 gpl Br " , 0.03 % B 2 O 3 .
- step (iii) is preferably debrominated so as to recover bromine and simultaneously reduce the Br " impurity in debrominated bittern to
- step (iii) is used for MgO recovery, preferably debrominated and used without crystallization of step (iv).
- step (iii) is used with or without debromination and is evaporated as per the procedure of step (iv) to reduce the volume by 20-25% to crystallize out the MgCl 2 .6H 2 O in 60-80% yield containing 0.020-0.015% B 2 O 3 impurity and is free from other salts.
- ammonia used for the initialization of reaction in step (v) is an aqueous ammonia solution containing 20-25% ammonia (w/w).
- mole ratio OfNH 3 to MgCl 2 used in step (v) is in the range
- the filtration operation used in step (vi) is carried out with ease on a Nutsche filter or rotary disk filter or filter press. In yet another embodiment the filtration operation used in step (vi) is carried out in a centrifuge.
- drying and calcination operation used in step (vii) is carried out directly or alternatively after washing the crude Mg(OH) 2 with a minimum quantity of water and additives to remove a part of the adhering impurities and rest during calcination.
- the drying operation used in step (vii) is carried out at a temperature of 70-150 0 C in either a conventional oven or a solar oven to yield soft white lumps that crumble easily into a powder.
- the calcination operation used in step (vii) is carried out in a muffle furnace at a temperature of about 900 0 C for 2-3 h and preferably by gradually ramping the temperature to expel adhering NH 4 Cl, HCl (from adhering MgCl 2 -OH 2 O),
- the MgO obtained in step (vii) has a purity of 98.0-98.9% when produced directly from the end bittern of step (iii) and a purity in the range of 99.1- 99.7 when prepared from crystallized or recrystallized MgCl 2 .6H 2 O obtained in step (iv).
- the MgO obtained from end bittern of step (iii) has a B 2 O 3 impurity level in the range of 0.10-0.12%.
- the MgO obtained from crystallized MgCl 2 .6H 2 O of step (iv) has a B 2 O 3 impurity level in the range of 0.060-0.080%.
- the MgO obtained from recrystallized MgCl 2 .6H 2 O has a B 2 O 3 impurity level in the range of 0.010-0.015%.
- the B 2 O 3 level in MgO can be made still lower through appropriate treatment either of the precursor Mg(OH) 2 or of the MgO itself.
- the NH 4 ClZNH 4 OH filtrate obtained as by-product Of Mg(OH) 2 preparation in step (vi) contains 0.5-2.0 % Mg and preferably, 0.5-1.0% Mg, to minimize the formation Of Mg(OH) 2 during treatment with lime.
- the lime used in step (ix) is either hydrated lime or quicklime in the form of a solid or solid suspension.
- the NH 3 vapors generated in step (ix) is stripped out with air or steam and is absorbed in a solution OfMgCl 2 by feeding into the reaction chamber at a rate so as to maintain the desired mole ratio OfNH 3 to MgCl 2 for optimum reaction.
- the solution obtained in step (ix) contains 20-30% CaCl 2 and is used directly in desulphatation reaction in step (i) or is clarified through filtration and/or addition of acid to redissolve Mg(OH) 2 prior to executing in step (i).
- the inventive step of the present invention lies in the preparation of magnesia from magnesium chloride via intermediate formation of magnesium hydroxide wherein no washing is required either of the magnesium hydroxide or of the magnesia while at the same time obtaining MgO of very high purity.
- bittern of this quality is obtainable by desulphatation of the raw bittern using CaCl 2 generated in the process of the invention.
- 500 gm (2.327 moles) of this magnesium chloride was mixed with 5 gm (0.08 moles) seeds of Mg(OH) 2 along with 400 ml of solution of ammonia having NH 3 concentration of 23.84% (w/w) (5.104 moles) The mixture was allowed to stand for 2 hours.
- Example 4 teaches us that the MgCl 2 -rich end bittern of Example 4 can be used for the preparation of MgCl 2 -OH 2 O that can yield MgO of >99% purity and containing only 0.0737% B 2 O 3 even without any manner of washing either of the Mg(OH) 2 or of the MgO. It would be evident that recrystallization of MgCl 2 .6H 2 O would further improve the purity of MgO.
- the slurry containing magnesium hydroxide prepared by absorption of ammonia was filtered and dried at 110 0 C to obtain 12.00 g of solid which on calcinations at 900C gave 4.66 gm of MgO (54% yield w.r.t. CaCl 2 generated and, consequently, NH 3 generated) and having MgO purity of 98.9%.
- This example teaches us the recycle of ammonia for Mg(OH) 2 production, with concomitant generation of calcium chloride useful for desulphatation of bittern.
- the main advantage of the present invention is that Mg(OH) 2 obtained from the reaction Of MgCl 2 and ammonia in aqueous medium, which is very easy to filter, requires no further purification and can directly yield MgO of high purity, thereby largely eliminating the tedious nature of work up encountered in the conventional process of preparation of MgO from purified Mg(OH) 2 .
- Another advantage is the conservation of fresh water which is a scarce commodity in some of the regions where production of MgO from bittern, integrated with recovery of other marine chemicals, is intended.
- Yet another advantage is that the quality of MgO obtained from the present invention surpasses, in many cases, the quality of MgO obtained from Mg(OH) 2 prepared following the conventional process as described in the prior art.
- the process of the present invention also compares favorably opposite other methods of producing MgO, such as through pyrohydrolysis of MgCl 2 and decomposition of magnesium carbonate.
- MgO metal-organic compound
- two calcination steps along with a difficult washing step are involved, besides the operational complexity, whereas in the latter case, the MgO obtained is either too impure or suffers from the problem of low bulk density that makes it unsuitable for refractory applications.
- Yet another advantage is that the easier work up and improved product quality — over that realized with the conventional process involving MgCl 2 and lime — are not at the expense of higher raw material cost since the net reaction is still the same, i.e., MgCl 2 and lime are the consumable raw materials while MgO and CaCl 2 are the products.
- still another advantage is that not only is lime the cheapest base but the CaCl 2 generated as co-product from the reaction of lime and intermediate NH 4 Cl is useful in desulfating sea bittern that yields MgCl 2 of desired quality required for MgO production by the process of the present invention, besides also enabling the production of KCl through carnallite formation.
