BARIUM CARBONATE (PRODUCTION RATE – 50,000 TONS/YEAR)
[EIRI/EDPR/4577] J.C.: 2794XL
INTRODUCTION
Barium carbonate is the inorganic compound with the formula BaCO3. Like most alkaline earth metal carbonates, it is a white salt that is poorly soluble in water. It occurs as the mineral known as witherite. In a commercial sense, it is one of the most important barium compounds.
Barium Carbonate is a white amorphous powder. It is one of the basic Barium salts and finds applications in many areas. Barium carbonate is water-insoluble, tasteless, odorless, dense and extremely toxic in nature.
It is utilized in the production of various commercial products, which include rubber, paints, enamels, ceramics, oil drilling, glass, and bricks. Specialty glass made using barium carbonate provides radiation shielding in CRT televisions. It is also used in making bricks, clays, photographic paper coatings, hard ferrite magnets, permanent ceramic magnets for loudspeakers and in the removal of sulphate from salt brines before they are fed into electrolytic cells. Besides this, the high toxicity of barium carbonate makes it an ideal solution in the formulation of rodenticides.
It is intended to prepare a Feasibility Report to install 50,000 MT/Year Barium Carbonate production facilities as a Green Field Project.
