BCI Chemical Research & Analysis – Calcium & Magnesium

Jacques Magliolo

Desk research on two mine water by products, closing out the economic analysis behind proposed brine treatment plants, for readers judging whether recovered salts can be sold.

What this report found

Prices for calcium and magnesium sulphate are recorded for South Africa and for world markets as at mid 2012, together with price trends and the groundwater chemistry that governs which salts a mine water stream will yield. The figures were assembled to support feasibility studies on a eutectic freeze crystallisation plant and an ion exchange plant.

What this report found

The separator handled fine coal and produced a 28 MJ/kg product, but its measured separation efficiency was lower than that of conventional dense medium cyclones and it was harder to operate. Two efficiency tests produced no evidence that the unit outperforms cyclones on fine coal, so cyclones were recommended when the plant was rebuilt at its next site.
