The purpose of the designation is to determine the content of active ingredients, capable of reacting
with SO2 from flue gas and determination of the contents of MgO.

The determination
In order to determine the content of MgO active denoted by acidimetry to methyl red total content of
MgO and CaO active subtracted by the CaO content of the active set by complexometric (EDTA KOH,
kalces and eriochrome black as indicator) titration of a solution obtained by titration ACIDIMETRIC.
For the assay, weigh a sample of approx. 0.1 g of calcined magnesite (m) transfer with limited contact
with the atmosphere - into a conical flask capacity. 400 ml, add 100 ml of distilled water, then - the
rapidly stirring suspension (using magnetic stirrer) - titrate the 0.1 N H2SO4 solution to the methyl red,
until the color is not changing for approx. 15 minutes. Titration carried out slowly at a rate such that the
pH in the flask was never lower than 4.0. It is unacceptable to the rapid addition of a flask of large
amounts of acid which causes reactions of both MgO, CaO and MgCO3 and CaCO3, which are not active
in the process of desulfurization.
The amount of mole of active MgO + CaO (MMgO,CaO) contained in the titrated sample of calcined
magnesite is given by:
V H2SO4 - volume of 0.1 N H2SO4 solution used to titrate the sample [ml]
n H2SO4 - equivalent concentration of H2SO4
MMgO,CaO - the total number of moles of MgO and CaO in the sample
The analysis should be carried out for two repetitive results with an accuracy of 0.5%.
In order to determine the share of CaO, the suspension obtained by titration ACIDIMETRIC, immediately
transfer quantitatively to poj.500 mL volumetric flask and make up to the mark with distilled water. The
suspension in the flask to mix, let stand for 5 minutes to sediment, and the pipette from flask 50 ml
solution placed in a conical flask poj.400ml, add to the flask 100 ml of distilled water and then, in order
to mask the effects of metals contained in the solution add 10 cm3 of 3% sodium diethyl
dithiocarbamate, then add 5 cm3 of 25% KOH solution and a pinch of kalces – sodium salt (to color the
solution pink-purple) and immediately titrate with 0.02 M EDTA solution until the indicator changes color
(Eriochrome black) from red to blue.
Based on the above titration determined the number of moles of active CaO in the sample subjected to
acidmetric titration of magnesite.
V EDTA - volume of 0.02M EDTA solution used to titrate the sample [ml]
