Brine-Based vs. Calcined Magnesite Magnesium Oxide: What's the Difference?

Introduction

Looking for high-performance magnesium oxide (MgO) for your food, pharma, or industrial applications? Understanding the difference between brine-based and calcined magnesite MgO is essential to making the right choice.

At Shandong Runfu Ca Mg Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., we are a leading manufacturer of synthetic (brine-based) magnesium and calcium salt products, with customizable solutions and global export services.

What Is Brine-Based Magnesium Oxide?

Brine-based MgO is produced from natural brine or seawater, using chemical precipitation and low-temperature calcination. This method delivers:

• Ultra-high purity (>99%)

• Low impurity content

• Customizable particle size and surface area

• Superior solubility and reactivity

Ideal for:

• Food additives

• Pharmaceuticals (antacids, supplements)

• Cosmetics

• Environmental protection

• Ceramics

• Electronic materials

What Is Calcined Magnesite Magnesium Oxide?

This MgO is made by mining natural magnesite (MgCO3) and calcining it at high temperatures (~1500°C). It is generally:

• Lower in purity

• Less reactive

• Richer in iron, calcium, and silicon impurities

Common uses:

• Metallurgy

• Refractory bricks

• Agriculture and fertilizer industries

Key Advantages of Brine-Based MgO

✅ Higher Purity

Synthetic MgO from brine can reach 99.5%+ purity, essential for sensitive applications.

✅ Better Customization

Adjust particle size, shape, and moisture content based on your needs.

✅ Wider Application Scope

Meets strict international standards like USP, FCC, food grade, and pharma grade.

✅ Eco-Friendly Production

Low-temperature calcination ensures lower emissions.
