ANTI-ICE REAGENT ON THE BASIS OF DOLOMITE, NITROGEN ACID AND CARBAMIDE

For the safe operation of pavements in the cold season, especially in mountainous areas, anti-icing means are required. The task was to develop the technology of their production from local raw materials. A domestic anti-icing reagent, from unbaked dolomite from Dekhkanabad deposit of Uzbekistan was offered, consisting of calcium, magnesium nitrates and carbamide. Standard chemical-analytical methods for investigating raw materials, laboratory technological methods, enlarged pilot-industrial approaches to the methods of its processing, followed by the development of technology for obtaining the required dolomite’s derivatives, as well as its implementation at JSC "Maxam-Chirchik" were used. Sulfur-hydrochloric acid’s processing of dolomite provided bischofite’s obtaining in industrial reactors. As the result, optimal conditions for obtaining anti-ice reagent were selected for its industrial production.
