Content overview: This book consists of 7 sections with 43 chapters, a general introduction, and appendices, and it provides an overview of the production, development, and research trends related to magnesium salts both domestically and internationally. It comprehensively and systematically elaborates on the use of non-metallic minerals such as dolomite, magnesite, and brucite as solid raw materials ； Using natural water-soluble magnesium salts and their solutions (seawater and brine) as liquid raw materials, 67 types of products totaling nearly 100 varieties are manufactured, including magnesia, hydrated basic magnesium carbonate, industrial magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium sulfate, magnesium chloride, and various fine magnesium salts. Information is provided on their physical and chemical properties, quality standards, biological principles, production methods, process parameters, key operational aspects, the main equipment used, and the treatment of waste gases, wastewater, and solid waste. It provides a detailed overview of the applications and manufacturing processes of magnesium compound products in various sectors of the national economy, including metallurgy, refractory materials, rubber, adhesives and sealing materials, chemical building materials, agriculture, environmental protection, the petrochemical industry, aerospace and defense, light industry, electronics, magnetic materials, and feed additives. It reflects the level of magnesium salt production at the beginning of the 21st century, and represents China’s first work on the production and application of magnesium salts. This book draws on practical production experiences both at home and abroad, is highly practical, and features certain innovations; it represents a monograph that provides a comprehensive overview of the production and applications of magnesium compounds to date. This book is suitable for engineering and technical personnel involved in the production of magnesium salts, as well as those engaged in research and design, production management, and work in fields that utilize magnesium salts. It can also be used as a reference book for teaching in higher education institutions. Table of Contents
