The Pidgeon process is a thermal reduction process that extracts magnesium from calcined dolomite under a vacuum pressure of 10 Pa and a temperature of 1100 ∼ 1200 °C by the ferrosilicon as a reducing agent and calcium fluoride as a mineralization agent in a horizontally placed reduction …
condition 98,82 % of magnesium were extracted from dolomite. The conclusion obtained from this leaching process is that the magnesium can be extracted from dolomite by …
In the Pidgeon Process, magnesium is produced from calcined dolomite under vacuum and at high temperatures using silicon as a reducing agent. In the process, the finely crushed dolomite (magnesium/calcium) carbonate is fed to rotary kilns where it is calcined, and where the carbon dioxide is driven off leaving a product of calcined dolomite ...
Magnesium is widely used in varieties industrial sector. Dolomite is one source of magnesium besides seawater. The extraction of magnesium from dolomite ores can be done by leaching process. In …
