Abstract: A system for producing magnesium chloride includes a removal unit, and a concentration unit that is connected to the removal unit. The removal unit generates feedstock water by removing sulfate ions and sodium ions from treatment target water having seawater as a feedstock. The concentration unit generates a slurry in which magnesium chloride is crystallized by concentrating the feedstock water. The removal unit has a first removal unit which reduces the sulfate ion concentration compared to the sulfate ion concentration in the treatment target water, and a second removal unit which reduces the sodium ion concentration compared to the sodium ion concentration in the treatment target water.
