What is claimed is: (b) introducing CO2 with mixing to the suspension
1. A method of producing magnesium sulfate com- 60 while maintaining the suspension at a temperature
prising the steps of: of 0 to 25° C. for a period of up to 10 hours;
(a) forming a suspension in aqueous medium of fer (c) additional heating of the suspension in step (b) at
rous sulfate or ferrous sulfate containing material a temperature of 80 to 100° C. thereby forming a
and at least one magnesium compound selected precipitate and a supernatant liquid;
from the group consisting of magnesium carbonate, 65 (d) subsequently separating said precipitate formed
magnesium oxide or magnesium hydroxide, both during step (c) from said supernatant liquid and
the magnesium compound and the ferrous sulfate (e) evaporation of water from the supernatant liquid
