However, high alumina in the bauxite residue increases the flux and acid consumption. Therefore, alumina needs to be removed by alkali roasting prior to smelting in order to decrease the flux and acid consumption. The alkali roastingsmeltingleaching process allows recovery of aluminum, iron, titanium, and REEs from bauxite residue.

The Bayer process is currently used to produce cellgrade alumina from bauxite. However, if the reactive silica content in the bauxite exceeds 7%, losses of caustic and aluminium as sodalite (2 Na 2 Al 2 O 3 ·3 SiO 2 ·2 H 2 O) become economically unacceptable. As Australia possesses large tonnages of bauxite containing more than 7% ...
Bauxite is widely used to produce alumina. There are many bauxite resources with high iron content. These resources could not be processed and utilized efficiently due to the high concentration of iron (Fe). The alkaline leaching process has been proposed to remove iron from these bauxite resources. Therefore, in this study, the alkaline leaching process was employed, and the effects of sodium ...

The Bayer process is the main process applied to obtain alumina from bauxite ore. The mineral is dissolved using sodium hydroxide in digesters, which obtain sodium aluminate in solution and a solid phase called red mud; the two are separated by the clarification process [1, 2].Brazil is the third country in bauxite reserves in the world, while Guinea and Australia are the first and the second ...
The separation of the alumina from the impurities in the bauxite ore is usually accomplished by the Bayer Process. In this process the ground bauxite is leached with caustic soda (NaOH) to produce soluble sodium aluminate (NaAlO2), leaving the impurities in the insoluble residue. The aluminate solution is then decomposed producing Al (OH)3 ...
