Magnesium Hydroxide Slurry for Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Acid Neutralization / pH Adjustment / Alkalinity Supplement

Acidic wastewater effluents are common across a wide spectrum of industrial categories. In a perfect world, industrial users of alkalinity supplements would enjoy unequalled economic and technical benefits.

Magnesium hydroxide slurry is a member of the family of industrial alkalis. Environmental professionals do not need to be held captive by higher-cost treatment agents such as caustic soda and hydrated lime. The benefits are not limited to just favorable economics. Magnesium hydroxide offers unparalleled safety, pH controllability, environmental friendliness, lower back-end solids creation, and greater alkalinity contribution, gallon-for-gallon. Also, unlike calcium-based alkalis, magnesium hydroxide slurry does not contribute to scaling.

Martin Marietta Magnesia Specialties’ magnesium hydroxide slurry for industrial wastewater applications is offered under the FloMag® H brand name.

Various alkalinity agents are offered for industrial wastewater neutralization, pH adjustment, and alkalinity supplementation. FloMag® H’s core benefits deliver an unparalleled envelope of advances over alternative agent profiles. FloMag® H optimizes value, as expressed by utility-cost ratio.

FloMag® H magnesium hydroxide slurry... no other technology approaches closer to an "in a perfect world" scenario of an industrial wastewater neutralization agent.
