Study of the Process of Potassium Chloride Conversion in the Presence of Diethylamine

Abstract

         The aim of the study is to establish the regularities of the process of obtaining potassium sulfate by sulfuric acid conversion of potassium chloride in the presence of diethylamine. To increase the efficiency of the process, the optimal sequence of feeding the initial components has been determined. The influence of technological factors on the yield and moisture content of the product has been studied. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of the resulting products have established through X-ray phase, microscopic and energy dispersive analyzes. The rheological properties of intermediate solutions and suspensions have been determined.
