Construction of modular plant for the production of pure magnesium oxide (sintered magnesia)
One of the main directions of our activity is the production of pure magnesium oxide, purity of 98,5-99,96%.
The project provides for the hydrometallurgical production of pure magnesium oxide (98,5-99,96% MgO) from serpentinite, meets modern environmental standards and is performed at a high technical level. Technical solutions used in the project are protected by the patents.
Calculation of the production volume of 4,000 tons of magnesium oxide (the first stage of the project) was performed based on the capacity of the shaft furnace from the Moscow plant with a process temperature of 1800 ° C. The shaft furnace defines the plant's capacity as the basic unit of equipment in the limiting stage of fusing, and as the most expensive unit of the modular plant equipment.
In the future, it is possible to increase production volumes. At the second stage, it is planned to install a high-temperature furnace of German / Chinese production with a total increase in equipment capacity of two or more times with a fusing temperature of 2000 ° C. The cost of the second stage with a briquetting line and a high-temperature furnace will roughly amount to $2,5 million. The second stage will allow expanding the range of products produced by obtaining sintered periclase powders with larger grains and increasing the yield of the products. The capacity increase in two or more times (in accordance with the selected capacity of the furnace) will lead to a slight increase in the cost of redistribution of the modular plant, up to 15-20%.
So, we offer you our main project: "Construction of a modular plant for the production of synthetic magnesium oxide “pure”, with a capacity of 4000 tons / year." Approximate cost of the plant is $2,5 Million (150 mln rubles).
We propose to organize a joint venture for the construction and commissioning of the plant. The main advantage of our technology is the use of a continuous process of chemical production (Doronin Technology), which allows achieving a reduction in the cost of production in comparison with the price of the market. We offer $ 200 per ton of magnesium-oxide. The average market price of magnesium oxide, “pure” - $700 - 1000. The raw materials are wastes of asbestos production (serpentinites, etc.). About 4 billion tons of serpentinite have been accumulated in the Middle Urals, in town of Asbest. The price of waste is about $10 US per ton. The terms of the joint venture agreement are to be discussed.
