China *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected] (Received: 1 December 2011; Accepted: 3 October 2012) AJC-12224 In this paper, the technological conditions for preparation of magnesium hydroxide from ammonium chloride by circulation method are presented. The ammonia gas was prepared via treating carbide residue with ammonium chloride and subsequently passed into the magnesium chloride solution to form the magnesium hydroxide and ammonium chloride. The ammonium chloride was recycled consequently with precipitation separation of the magnesium hydroxide. Key facts on the productivity of magnesium hydroxide were investigated. The best condition is as follows: the molar ratio of ammonium chloride to magnesium chloride is 4.5, the magnesium is 1.5 mol/L, the reaction time is 1 h, the reaction temperature is 25 ºC and the aging time is 2 h. The productivity of magnesium hydroxide can obtain 89.10 % with a purity of above 99.12 % and the cycling rate of ammonium chloride is 69.47 % on this condition. The XRD and SEM were used to characterize the powder products. The results indicate the sheet-shaped magnesium hydroxides with 1 µm diameter were obtained. Key Words: Carbide residue, Lake magnesium chloride, Magnesium hydroxide, Calcium chloride. INTRODUCTION green flame retardants, which can prevent it from being exported as the raw material. Consequently, we propose to Magnesium hydroxide has been widely used in fuel gas produce Mg(OH)2 via carbide residue reacts with MgCl2 of desulfurization process, waste water treatment process and the lake. On the one hand, this technique can diminish the 1, 2 food industry as an important inorganic material . It is also a excess of these two substances. On the other hand, such method necessary starting material of magnesium chloride as well as is feasible and can produce satisfactory social benefits, many other industrial magnesium compounds. Compare with economic benefits and an obvious environmental protection Al(OH)3, Mg(OH)2 has the merit of higher decomposition benefits. temperature, better thermostability and better flame retardancy. Besides, the small size of Mg(OH)2 favours its application as EXPERIMENTAL a new type of green environmental-friendly flame retardants in the polymer industry around the world recently. Experiment principle: This study shows the preparation Carbide residue is the main production waste of acetylene, of Mg(OH)2 from ammonium chloride by circulation method. which prepared through calcium carbide method and is mostly The ammonia gas was generated via carbide residue reaction composed of calcium hydroxide, as nearly above 85 wt %. It with NH4Cl and subsequently it was passed into the MgCl2 has been pointed out that 1 ton calcium carbide will yield 1.2- solution and formed the Mg(OH)2 and NH4Cl. The NH4Cl can 1.5 tons of carbide residue3,4.

MgCl2 + 2NH3 + 2H2O → Mg(OH)2↓ + 2NH4Cl As is well known, the lake/sea magnesium resources in Carbide residue is the industry waste by Xinjiang Tianye China are abundant5. But the magnesium salts have always Group which manufactures the acetylene gas. The raw material been treated as the by-product of other salts. It is urgent to was preheated at 100 ºC for 2 h. This procedure can remove find a new way for large-scale application of magnesium the H2S gas, H3P gas and residual acetylene gas from the raw resources for its low utilization ratio.

Additional Contacts: https://www.extension.iastate.edu/ag/swine FIBER Q. What are my other options for high fiber ingredients besides DDGS? A. The cost of all ingredients, including high fiber ingredients, varies by location and over time. So, message #1 here is to always keep an eye on ingredient costs because they can change as conditions change. And what is economical in one location may be priced out of the market in another. But high fiber ingredient options with greater than 25% NDF include (typical NDF % in brackets): corn cobs (81), soybean hulls (59), safflower meal (56), brewers grains (49), sugar beet pulp (45), corn germ meal (44), alfalfa meal (42), sunflower meal (37), wheat middlings (35), sorghum DDGS (34), corn bran without solubles (33), wheat bran (32), dehulled sunflower meal (30), wheat shorts (29), rice bran (26), dehulled safflower meal (26). Q. Will the use of high fiber diets lead to the build-up of solids in the pit? A. Using an example of a 35% DDGS diet or 20% soy hulls diet, it generally depends on how you grind them.

  • Preparation of Nano-Ammoniated Ammonium Carnallite from Using Industrial Effluents and Saline
    Available online a t www.pelagiaresearchlibrary.com Pelagia Research Library Advances in Applied Science Research, 2014, 5(2):334-346 ISSN: 0976-8610 CODEN (USA): AASRFC Preparation of nano-ammoniated ammonium carnallite from using industrial effluents and saline Sh. El Rafie and M. S. Mohamed National Research Center, Chemical Engineering and Pilot plant Department, Cairo, Egypt _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Precipitation of magnesium hydroxide from magnesium chloride (Saline) followed by calcination, is important method for production of magnesium oxide and magnesium metal. The chemical purity of magnesium produced is dependent on composition of saline and industrial effluents. To precipitate and recover magnesium hydroxide from solution containing magnesium salts,a strong base is needed (like ammonia). Anhydrous magnesium chloride is used in magnesium metal production such as in production of metallic compounds and to enhance the productivity of olefin polymers such as cordierite, forsterite, enstatite spinel which are used in various industries. In this work the high pH (10.5 – 14) in chemical fertilizer company effluents rich with (ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate) and a mixed streams effluent were used to prepare magnesium chloride, anhydrous magnesium chloride and magnesium oxide. The (XRD) x-rays diffraction and (FT-IR) Infra- red and (EDS) scan electron microscope analysis (TEM) high resolution surface analysis shows the extent of purity, crystal size and magnesium carnallite yield. The products were aged at 50 ºC for 30 min and calcined at 500 ºC to produce magnesium oxide. The ammonium chloride products were reacted with ammonium carnallite which is then calcined at 700 ºC to produce ammoniated ammonium carnallite. The carnallite was characterized by TEM, TGA and EDS.
