STUDY OF THE PROCESS OF ISOLATION OF MAGNESIUM COMPOUNDS FROM SERPENTINITE

Abstract

. This paper provides data on the study of treatment of serpentinite with nitrate acid in the Karakalpak field. According to the chemical analysis, the composition of the raw material containing 33–35% MgO was determined. The results of the study showed that in the studied ranges of variation, the technological parameters of the MgO content in the liquid phase did not exceed 1.69 (in the ranges of temperature 40–80 °C), and with an increase in temperature by 95 °C, the content and yield of magnesium oxide increased by 2 times, respectively, by 2.99% and 24.4%.
