Abstract

Caustic magnesia and magnesium hydroxide slurry are mixed together with sufficient energy in a counter-current high energy mixer to form pellets of various sizes during hydration of the caustic magnesia. The pellets may be used as formed or may be calcined to caustic magnesia or deadburned in a kiln to refractory periclase.
