MgSO4 carbothermic reductive decomposition to produce a highly reactive MgO powder

Magnesium sulphate is commonly present in industrial wastes due to Mg’s presence in the structure of various minerals and the fact that sulphuric acid leaching is widely used. MgO appears as a possible pH neutralizing agent that can be obtained by decomposition of MgSO4. However, at 1500 K, the temp...
