Synopsis
A Complete Guide to Magnesia-From Mining to End Use
Often relegated to footnote status in texts, magnesia is nevertheless a valuable substance widely used in applications ranging from wastewater treatment to catalysis. The Chemistry and Technology of Magnesia fills the long-standing gap in the literature with a comprehensive, one-stop reference to "all things magnesia."
The book brings together the many strands of information on magnesium compounds, their production, testing and evaluation, technology, applications, and markets. Opening with an introductory history of the chemical, it covers the life cycle of magnesia, natural and synthetic production, and uses in different fields including the environmental, health, and agricultural industries. Readers will find the section on health and safety issues particularly relevant.
Chapters include:
* The History of Magnesia
* Synthetic Magnesia
* Pulp Applications
* Environmental Applications
* Magnesia Cements
* Furnaces and Kilns
* Post Calcination Processing
* Other Magnesia Products
* Mining and Processing Magnesite
