Energy Saving Rotary Kiln for Converting Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO₃) to

Product Description:

Magnesite rotary kiln of ZK produced has 11 models according to the specifications and dimensions of the cyclinder, ranging from Ø1.6×32m-Ø4×80m. The diameter of the cyclinder is above 2.2m (including 2.2m) with auxiliary transmission, and the support is changed from three groups to four groups when the diameter of cyclinder is above 3.0m (including 3.0m). The kiln speed is 0.58-2.85r/min, the slope is 3.5-4.0%, and the supporting main motor power is 18.5KW-355KW, which can meet the calcination demand of 2t/h-20t/h magnesite products.

Magnesite is a carbonate mineral of magnesium. It is the main raw material for making basic magnesia refractories and extracting metallic magnesium. Magnesite ore is mainly used for calcining refractories such as light burnt magnesia, sintered magnesia, and fused magnesia. At present, light-burned magnesite mainly uses rotary kiln equipment.

Equipped with a state-of-the-art PLC control system, this Calcination Equipment offers precise and automated operation, enhancing efficiency and control over the calcination process. The advanced control system ensures consistent and accurate results, making it an ideal choice for industries requiring high precision and reliability.

Magnesium Oxide Production Process:

The calcination of magnesite to produce magnesia requires MgO>45%, SiO2<1.2 and CaO<1.5% for the ores used for calcination. The essence of magnesite calcination is the decomposition of carbonate: MgCO;=MgO+CO2.

① Light Burnt Magnesium Oxide

When magnesite is heated to above 640°C, it begins to decompose into magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide. When calcined at 100~1000C, carbon dioxide does not completely escape. The product is a powdery substance called light burnt magnesia (also called caustic magnesium, calcined magnesium, a.-magnesium). Its chemical activity is very strong, has a high degree of adhesiveness, easy to react with water to generate magnesium hydroxide.

② Dead Burned Magnesium Oxide

When calcined at 1400~1800°C, carbon dioxide completely escapes. Due to the occurrence of recrystallization and sintering, magnesium oxide forms a dense mass of periclase, which is called dead burned magnesia (hard burned magnesia, dead burned magnesia, β-magnesium) , This kind of heavy burned magnesia has high refractoriness.

③ Re-burned Magnesia

Re-burned magnesia is melted at 2500~3000°C, and after cooling and solidification, it develops into a perfect periclase crystal, called fused magnesia, called fused magnesia or molten magnesia. High-temperature calcined magnesia is not easy to mix with water Combination of carbonic acid has the characteristics of high hardness, strong chemical resistance and high resistivity.
