DEHYDRATION METHOD OF CARNALLITE RAW MATERIALS AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC C01F5/34 F27B17/00 

FIELD: metallurgy.

SUBSTANCE: group of invention relates to non-ferrous metallurgy, particularly to method and device for preparation of carnallite raw materials to the process of electrolytic magnesium recieving. According to the method carnallite raw materials are loaded and dehydrated in the furnace by fuel gas, dehydrated carnallite is separated in dust cyclone from withdrawn gas and fed into the melting cyclone, where it is heated by fuel gas, received in burner by means of chlorine burning in natural gas, it is melted and heated up to the temperature 700-800°C. After overheating mixture of fuel gas and molten waterless carnallite is fed simultaneously in the melt collector, where gas is separated from the melt by means of collision with partition and fed into the furnace to dehydration stage, and waterless carnallite is discharged. Unit includes furnace with nozzles for loading of raw materials and gas mixture withdrawal with waterless carnallite, with nozzle for feeding of fuel gas, dust cyclone, connected to the furnace by gas pipe, melting cyclone, connected by pipeline to dust cyclone and melt pipe with melt collecto, outfitted by burner for burning of chlorine, collector of the melt with discharge nozzle for melt. It is also outfitted by gas flue, connecting melt collector with furnace and outfitted by device for gas feeding additionally melt collector is implemented in the form of tank with partition and outfitted by additional nozzle, connected to gas pipe.

EFFECT: group of inventions provides cost reduction for materials, electric power and equipment for dehydration of carnallite raw materials, to reduce raw materials losses and to increase productivity of unit operation.
