Abstract

A process for the continuous preparation of magnesium and calcium carbonates from ores such as dolomites, magnesium limestomes, predazzites, pencatites and impure magnesites, comprises passing an aqueous slurry of the calcined ore through a series of carbonation tanks in which the supply of carbon dioxide gas is controlled to maintain a series of descending pH values ranging from 12.5 to 8, the pH value in each zone being maintained substantially constant, and separating the magnesium and calcium carbonates found either by a method dependent on their differences in specific gravity, e.g., centrifugal separation, or by a method of froth flotation. The ore is calcined at, for example, 840 DEG or 885 DEG C., to leave part of the calcium carbonate undissociated, after pulverising and classifying to give a product with an average size of about 12 microns, is suspended in water in a ratio of 1 part partly calcined ore to at least 10 parts, e.g., 12 to 16 parts, water. This suspension is passed through a series of carbonation tanks, of which, e.g., the first three and last three are larger than the middle five and are provided with agitators to give gentle agitation and circulation in the larger and rapid agitation and passage in the smaller tank. The carbonating gas, of 20 to 40 per cent. carbon dioxide, may be derived from the ore calcination and may be scrubbed and compressed before being delivered to all tanks except the first through small elastic-walled orifices (see Groups VI and XII). The temperature should be kept between 20 DEG and 50 DEG C. to form nesquehonite, for example, between 25 DEG and 36 DEG C., and the temperatures of the second and third tanks are used to control the gas supply thereto. The supply to the remainder is controlled by the pH in the tanks, the pH values maintained thereby being, for example, 12.1, 9.8, 9.6, 9.1, 8.6, 8.3 and 8. The magnesium carbonate produced is composed of crystals about 100 microns in length and 8 to 12 microns in breadth, and the calcium carbonate of particles about 10 microns in diameter.
