Different ways for alkaline recovery of aluminum from bauxite residue are considered from the literature and examined in experiments. The advantages and disadvantages of a hightemperature digestion via Bayer process and sodalime sintering process are elaborated and compared. As a hybrid process, bauxite residue undergoes a reductive smelting process with lime addition in an electric arc ...

The digestion behavior of Australian gibbsiteboehmite bauxite and pure quartz in the Bayer process at 230250 °C was systematically studied in this paper. The mineral composition and morphology of the reaction products were characterized and the kinetics of the quartz dissolution process was studied in detail.

Bauxite residue, a potential secondary source of CRM, can contain considerable amounts of strategically important metals depending on its geologic origin and processing [6, 7]. Bauxite residue is the byproduct of alumina production and is generated in the Bayer process when bauxite is digested in hot NaOH under elevated temperature and pressure.

An improved process for extracting monohydrate and trihydrate alumina from bauxite containing both forms of alumina. The slurry of bauxite is subjected to a first digestion in a first portion of spent liquor at conditions sufficient to extract the trihydrate. The liquor containing the dissolved trihydrate is separated from the slurry under conditions of temperature and pressure that are ...

Very small differences in bauxite hardness or density, mainly through variability in the content of ironcontaining hardcap, can lead to an increased recirculating load. This also leads to a longer residence time, with the possibility of a buildup of a critical size inside the mill.

In the Bayer process, bauxite ore is heated in a pressure vessel along with a sodium hydroxide solution (caustic soda) at a temperature of 150 to 200 °C. At these temperatures, the aluminium is dissolved as sodium aluminate (primarily [Al (OH) 4] −) in an extraction process.

Almost the entire metallurgical grade alumina is produced from bauxite using the Bayer process. The leaching conditions in Bayer process depend on various Aloxyhydroxide minerals/phases present in the bauxite. Among the various bauxite types, gibbsitic (trihydrate) bauxite is easiest to digest. Monohydrate (boehmitic and diasporic) bauxites need more stringent digestion conditions in terms of ...
