Fluoride emissions from Pidgeon process for magnesium
Primary magnesium is nowadays produced in China via Pidgeon process. An important reaction in the process is silicothermic reduction of MgO from dolime near 1200ºC under pressure of 2-10 Pa to generate Mg vapor. Fluorite, ranging 2-3% (mass fraction), is usually mixed with the raw materials to catalyze the reaction.

Pidgeon process. The Pidgeon process is one of the methods of magnesium metal production, via a silicothermic reduction. Practical production requires roughly 35-40 MWh/ton of metal produced, which is on par with the molten salt electrolytic methods of production, though above the 7 MWh/ton theoretical minimum.
