ABSTRACT The characterization of physical properties for MgO powders precipitated from Alexandria Salt company
waste liquid Bittern and that precipitated from industrial wastewater rich with ammonia was studied. The decom-
position of precipitated Mg(OH)2 from sea liquid Bittern was analyzed by TGA and crystallization process was observed by XRD for both
Mg(OH)2 and MgO. The SEM analysis and EDX, shows the platelet morphology of Mg(OH)2 and hexagonal MgO powders originating from
different calcinations temperatures. The XRF analysis showed the increase in Magnesia % purity from 35% up to 96.6 % by water wash of MgO
prepared after calcination at 900oC. A techno-economic pre-feasibility study has been revealed conducted and high product profitability-
potentials with respect to: (i) the expected percent annual return on investment 400% and (ii) payout-period (0.19 year) based on lower price
than imported pure source of MgO with 7000 EGP per ton as a selling price.

MgO content 96% was achieved after washing the product and
drying at 1100C .
The MgO content 98% was obtained from the pure MgCl as
standard product for the preparation condition with 5.95% (LOI).
