Applications
Magnesium oxide (direct process) is widely used in the following industries:
1. Building Materials:
Production of magnesium-based cement and refractory materials.
2. Agriculture:
Soil improvement and pH adjustment for acidic soils.
3. Rubber and Plastics:
As a resetting and reinforcing agent in rubber compounds.
4. Chemicals:
Used as a raw material for the production of magnesium salts.
5. Environmental:
Water treatment and flue gas desulfurization.
6. Ceramics:

Production Technology
The direct process involves burning natural magnesite at high temperatures. The ore undergoes thermal alignment, releasing high-purity magnesium oxide. This production process ensures high reactivity, low error, and consistent particle size distribution.
Reaction Equation: MgCO₃ → HeatMgO + CO₂text{MgCO}_3 xrightarrow{text{Heat}} text{MgO} + text{CO}_2 MgCO₃ Heat MgO + CO 2
Theory
Magnesium oxide has a strong affinity for moisture and air currents, reacting to form magnesium hydrogen or magnesium carbonate. This makes it an effective material for applications requiring both reactivity and absorption. Its thermal stability and alkalinity also lend it to use in refractories and as a neutralizer.
