Abstract

A method of preparing magnesium metal with bischofite, pertains to the field of metallic material. The invention is characterized in that it takes the bischofite as stock and prepare magnesium hydroxide with ammonia process under the following conditions: at the temperature between 45~55 DEG C for 20~30 minutes, with the proportion between magnesium and ammonia 1:1.2~1.5:2.2 and with the concentration of magnesium chloride about 35~55 g/L, calcinating the magnesium hydroxide under the temperature of 900~1000 DEG C for 3-4hours, getting the magnesia with the purity of more than 99.5%,in the molten salt electrolyte system of lanthanum chloride and magnesium chloride, the proportion between lanthanum chloride and magnesium chloride in moles is 10~30%, the solubility of magnesia is 5~10 mass%, thaw temperature is 700~750 DEG C, the tank voltage 4.5~6.5 volt, the current efficiency comes to 85~90%, the consumption of the direct current of magnesium is 11~12.5kWh per kilogram and the purity of magnesium is above 95%. The method avoids the dehydration process of bischofite and is characterized by the energy-saving and consumption-deducing, the highly effective and cleaning of electrolytic process, particularly for its not emitting chlorine and not polluting the environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of metal materials, and in particular relates to a method for producing magnesium metal using bischofite as a raw material. Background technique [0002] Qinghai Salt Lake is rich in potassium and magnesium resources. Among them, Chaerhan Salt Lake is located in the south-central Qaidam Basin of Qinghai Province. It is the only potassium fertilizer production base in my country, and its magnesium chloride reserves are 1.62 billion tons. In the production of potash fertilizer, every ton of potassium chloride produced can produce 10 tons of magnesium chloride by-product. After annual potash production in the Chaerhan Salt Lake area, a large amount of old brine can be produced, and the main component of the old brine is bischofite (MgCl 2 ·6H 2 O). At present, these old brines are not used and discarded, which not only causes a huge waste and pollution of resources, so that it becomes a "magnesium hazard", destroys th...
