Evaluation Of Production Technologies And Market Potential Of Magnesial Binders In Uzbekistan

Abstract

This paper provides a comprehensive assessment of the current condition and development trajectory of the magnesial binder industry in the Republic of Uzbekistan. The study examines the country’s raw material potential, including reserves of magnesite- and dolomite-based minerals, and analyzes the technological processes used in the production of caustic magnesite and caustic dolomite. Special attention is given to the quality parameters of locally produced binders, their competitiveness, and their applicability in various sectors of construction, chemical production, and environmental technologies. Existing challenges related to resource utilization, energy efficiency, and modernizations of production facilities are identified. The paper also outlines strategic opportunities for advancing the industry through innovation, improved processing technologies, and expansion of domestic and export markets. Overall, the study highlights the importance of magnesial binders as a promising segment within Uzbekistan’s construction material industry and underscores the need for further research and investment to ensure sustainable sectoral growth.
