The environment of Brucite Lump Application

Brucite is known to have a higher magnesium content than any other industrially-used magnesium-bearing mineral (up to 65%MgO), and this makes it a highly effective agent for wastewater treatment and flue-gas desulphurization.

Brucite-based products are used in concentrated suspension form to neutralize acidic effluents, precipitate heavy metals, reduce hydrogen sulfide emissions and improve filtration properties of treated sludge, often producing lower levels of solid waste. When they are used in scrubbers to filter exhaust gases, magnesium sulfate, a commercially valuable chemical, is formed as a by-product of the reaction.

Use of brucite

Brucite is an industrial mineral with special value due to its high content of useful components, low content of harmful impurities, and its unique physicochemical properties, which are different from other types of magnesium-containing mineral raw materials. The main uses of brucite is as below:

1. Flame retardant additives in rubber, plastic and fiber

2.  Flue gas desulfurization

3. Aluminum composite panel

4. Paper industry

5. Agriculture and fertilizer uses

6. Environmental protection field (Wastewater treatment)

7. Magnesia high temperature refractory

8. Fireproof coating

9. Neutralize the treatment agent and adjust the pH value
