Global Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry Market Definition

The use of magnesium hydroxide slurry to neutralize industrial and municipal wastewater streams is a safe and cost-effective treatment method. Magnesium Hydroxide is a highly effective alkaline chemical that can be carried in full tankers, totes, or drums. Our Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry is produced in a regulated batching technique that results in fine particle size, resulting in a more stable product with improved reactivity and Magnesium usage. Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry has been shown to be safe and cost-effective for neutralizing acids and optimizing biological therapy. Magnesium Hydroxide has a pH of 6.0 to 9.0 and is a good source of alkalinity, making it ideal for use in aerobic and anaerobic biological treatment systems.

It offers critical nutrients for development and promotes faster aerobic digestion, especially in denitrification systems. Magnesium hydroxide buffers pH, removing the risk of accidentally harming bio-organisms due to over-feeding of the neutralizer. When compared to other alkalis, magnesium hydroxide delivers higher CaCO3 equivalent alkalinity per weight. 1.68 pounds of Calcium Carbonate are equal to one dry pound of Mg(OH)2 (CaCO3). Magnesium Hydroxide, unlike Caustic Soda and Lime, is non-corrosive, making handling easier and safer. It’s a ready-to-use solution that creates predictable and consistent material while also making the workplace safer and lowering the chance of employee damage.

To prevent particle aggregation and sedimentation over a wide range of solid loading, the magnesium hydroxide suspension must have a high solid loading and be sufficiently stable with adequate fluidity. A dispersant is usually necessary to make a pumpable slurry because the viscosity of the slurry is too high. The solid will tend to settle to the bottom of the storage vessel unless the suspension is stable, and the settled solids can be quickly re-suspended and don’t form a hard cake at the container bottom. To understand the mechanical behavior of these slurries, fundamental aspects such as the interaction of magnesium hydroxide slurry in new dispersants are explored.

Global Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry Market Overview

In wastewater treatment, magnesium hydroxide appears to be an excellent substitute for lime and caustic soda. Because of its long-term economic benefits, brine/seawater precipitation would continue to be the most popular industrial method. Market expansion is likely to be aided by rising demand for technical/industrial grade magnesium hydroxide. Magnesium hydroxide has become more popular for wastewater treatment applications in both developed and developing countries during the last few decades. Magnesium hydroxide has arisen as an ideal candidate as governments throughout the world continue to focus on improving wastewater treatment processes. Due to the benefits of magnesium hydroxide slurry, it is expected to overtake lime and caustic soda in terms of adoption.

Magnesium hydroxide is also widely utilized for acid neutralization of industrial wastewater, in addition to being an excellent choice for wastewater treatment. Magnesium hydroxide is expected to expand in popularity due to its increasing use in flue gas desulphurization for recovering high-quality petroleum products. The SO3 removal system is deployed across power plants as well as other industries to remove sulfur content in the fuel, which can be the cause of machine corrosion and even reduce machine performance. As a result, increased demand for the removal of sulfur content from gasoline is likely to drive Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry Market growth. Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry Market growth is projected to be hampered by the availability of replacements such as caustic soda, which is an excellent neutralizing agent.

The majority of industry-installed neutralizing systems are designed to employ caustic soda, which has a faster reaction rate. However, when utilizing magnesium hydroxide, the system must be changed, which can incur heavy expenditure. The aforementioned issues are projected to restrain Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry Market expansion. Excessive magnesium consumption can result in diarrhea, as well as other unpleasant side effects like vomiting and cramping. This is expected to limit magnesium hydroxide usage, hence restraining the market expansion of magnesium hydroxide. Additionally, high quantities of magnesium hydroxide in the blood can cause muscle weakness, breathing difficulties, irregular heartbeat, and mood swings. Such adverse effects of magnesium hydroxide are likely to have a negative impact on the market expansion.
