WO 2010/092117 15 30 /EP2010/051723, Cross-reference to related applications ‘The present application claims the priority benefit of French patent application No, 0950868 filed February 12, 2009. TECHNICAL FIELD ‘The present invention relates to a process for preparing calcium chloride that is stripped of magnesium and other metal impurities, Prior art Calcium chloride is a chemical that has numerous applications in all fields of industry, including the food industry. Although calcium chloride is a by-product of the manufacture of certain, these by-products products, especially sodium carbonate via the Solvay proces are usually relatively dilute solutions of CaCl, which is very soluble in water, but that contain often significant amounts of impurities, especially of sodium, nd other metal compounds, such as iron, lead, ete. magnesium It is known that calcium chloride may be obtained by dissolving solid calcium carbonate using hydrochloric acid. For large-scale production, the production may be carried out directly starting from limestone, However, although limestone is predominantly composed of calcium carbonate (CaCOs), it usually also contains relatively large proportions of magnesium carbonate (MgCOs) and other impurities. Consequently, independently of the origin of the raw materials, itis necessary, in order to meet the applicable product specifications, to avoid as far as possible the presence of impurities and in any case the necessary measures should be taken so that the acceptable values for each of the elements other than calcium and chlorine are not exceeded. Generally, within the context of the production of saline solutions (NaCl brine, 36% CaCl solution, etc.), the magnesium must be removed in order to meet the specifications for the end product. It is known that this step can be carried out by adding an alkaline agent to the medium to be purified, which agent results in the magnesium precipitating in the form of its hydroxide Mg(OH)s.
