    The document describes a process for producing magnesium stearate involving four main steps: 1) Synthesis of caustic soda from brine using a brine storage tank, distillation column, diaphragm cell and storage tanks. 2) Synthesis of magnesium sulfate by reacting magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid in a reactor, then drying and storing the product. 3) Saponification of stearic acid and sodium hydroxide to form sodium stearate, followed by evaporation and storage. 4) Precipitation of magnesium stearate by mixing sodium stearate and magnesium sulfate, then separating, drying and milling the product. Excess sodium sulfate is
