An apparatus for chlorination of molten magnesium chloride salts, comprising a shell lined with a refractory material and having the interior thereof formed by walls, a bottom and a cover. The lower portion of the shell walls is provided with chlorine inlet means whereas the upper portion has a melt feed inlet means and a chlorinated melt outlet means. The interior of the shell is so tapered downward that its clear opening, F.sub.1, at the level of the chlorine inlet means is not over 0.3 times the clear opening, F.sub.2, at the level of the melt feed inlet means and the chlorinated melt outlet means.

Disclosed is an apparatus for chlorination of molten magnesium chloride salts, comprising a shell lined with a refractory material and having the interior thereof formed by walls, a bottom and a cover. The lower portion of the shell walls is provided with chlorine inlet means whereas the upper one has a melt feed inlet means and a chlorinated melt outlet means. The interior of the shell is so tapered downward that its clear opening at the level of the chlorine inlet means is not over 0.3 times that at the level of the melt feed inlet means and the chlorinated melt outlet means.

To produce magnesium and chlorine, a melt of anhydrous chlorides of magnesium, potassium and sodium is subjected to electrolysis. The molar ratio of potassium chloride to magnesium chloride in the initial mixture of chlorides ranges from 0.9 to 5.0 and the molar ratio of potassium chloride to sodium chloride in the melt ranges from 1.2 to 2.7 with the content of sodium chloride ranging from 19 to 38% by weight.
