Abstract

Abstract

High-purity magnesia was one of the most demanded and widely used products among many magnesia refractories. However, in recent years, high-purity magnesia manufacturers have faced problems such as high energy consumption, high pollution emissions, and difficulties in pollution control. This study used life cycle assessment to analyze the environmental impact of high-purity magnesia production, from cradle to gate, divided the entire process into six stages, selected 12 key environmental impact types, and established the list of material input and emissions. This study was modeled and calculated based on eBalance software. The results showed that the total environmental impact of high-purity magnesia production was 4.23×10^-12, of which GWP was the largest environmental impact contribution type in the production of high-purity magnesia. The light burning stage and heavy burning stage had the largest environmental impact contribution, followed by the fine grinding stage, mining stage, and ball pressing stage, while the environmental impact contribution of the transportation stage was small.
