Due to the focus on climate change and sustainability, the demand for efficient solutions for waste treatment, emission reduction, and mineral reuse is growing. This has led to increasing interest in industrial applications that support a circular economy. Magnesium products play a crucial role in this development.
Wastewater treatment
Magnesium, both chloride and hydroxe, are used in wastewater treatment to bind phosphates and neutralize acids. This results in cleaner water with less sludge production and improved quality—contributing to sustainable water management and reduced environmental impact.

Flue gas cleaning
In industrial settings, magnesium-based products help neutralize acidic components in flue gases, such as sulfur and chlorine compounds. This leads to significant emission reductions, improved air quality, and less corrosion—making production processes cleaner and safer.
Marine flue gas cleaning
Magnesium additives are also used in the maritime sector to clean exhaust gases. They effectively neutralize acids, helping ships meet strict emission standards. The result: cleaner air, fewer harmful emissions, and a smaller ecological footprint.
Pulp bleaching
In the pulp and paper industry, magnesium products support a more efficient and environmentally friendly bleaching process. They enhance pulp quality, reduce the chemical load in wastewater, and help producers operate more sustainably—while maintaining high-quality end products.
