152,401. Ashcroft, E. A. July 9, 1919. Magnesium chloride; double chlorides. - Hydrated magnesium chloride is converted into the anhydrous body by partial dehydration in a voluminous current of heated air, preferably dried, until the fusion point is mixed above 150‹ C., followed by treatment with a slow current of hydrochloric acid gas to complete the dehydration; during dehydration, fusion of the mass is to be avoided, and the product obtained is porous if a temperature of 500‹ C is not exceeded, and of a partly crystalline texture if the temperature is allowed to rise to incipient fusion, 650‹ C.; after dehydration the product may be fused. The magnesium chloride is preferably employed in the form of needle crystals such as are obtained by cooling a solution having a strength of 80‹ T., from 50‹ C. to atmospheric temperature. For carrying out the first stage of the process, the apparatus shown in Fig. 1 may be employed. In this, a retort A, C, suitably lagged, contains the material introduced through a lid a2-the larger lid a is for cleaning purposes,-and heated air supplied to a duct E passes into the retort through an annular gap d; the dehydrated material is removed by means of a rotating star wheel F, and is discharged into a churn connected in an airtight manner to the outlet. For the second stage of the process a separate apparatus as shown in Fig. 2 is preferably employed. The partly dehydrated material is introduced into a retort G, Fig. 2, enclosed in a furnace heated by tangential burners K, and comprising body sections G of silica glass and a charging-hopper H and outlet I of cast-iron; the hopper is provided with large and small lids, h, h2 for cleaning and charging respectively, and in the outlet there is a screw or mill L in which any caked lumps are broken up. Hydrochloric acid gas is introduced by a pipe g3 and passes into the annular gap g2 formed by a depending skirt g; after passage through the material the gas is led away by a pipe h3 to a condenser, and the concentrated acid so obtained passed to a generator in which it is liberated for re-use by treatment with concentrated sulphuric acid. The process is applicable to the dehydration of double salts such as carnallite. Specifications 152,402, [Class 41, Electrolysis], 152,403, and 152,879, [Class 41, Electrolysis], are referred to.
