Magnesium Carbonate Production Cost Reports

Magnesium Carbonate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Magnesium Carbonate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Magnesium Carbonate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Magnesium Carbonate (MgCO3) is a white powdered compound that is composed of one magnesium, one carbon, and three oxygen atoms. It is magnesium salt that is odorless in nature. Its molecular weight is 84.31 g/mol, and its density is measured around 2.958 g/cm3. Its melting point is measured around 350 °C, and it generally decomposes when the temperature exceeds its melting point. The compound is also known as magnesite, that is majorly associated with the pharmaceutical and medical sectors.

Magnesium Carbonate is insoluble in water and ethanol. However, it can be dissolved in acid and other solvents like aqueous carbon dioxide. It is insoluble in chemical solvents, including acetone and ammonia. It is a white monoclinic crystal that remains stable in air. The chemical can decompose on heating the same, at an elevated temperature. It emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes of carbon dioxide when heated at higher temperatures. The compound has several applications that can be seen in chemical, pharmaceutical, medical, and other commercial applications.

Magnesium Carbonate or magnesite is majorly recognized as an antacid that can be used to treat heartburn, stomach upset, and indigestion. It serves as a remedy for stomach issues that are caused by the overproduction of acid in the stomach. It is also used as a drying agent in the food production activities. The chemical is used as an extender in manufacturing rubber products, including rubber bands, rubber threads, etc. Moreover, it acts as an absorbent or binder in the formulation of cosmetic powder, foot care, and skin care products.
