Red mud is a slimy caustic residue generated from alumina refining of bauxite ores. During the alumina extraction process, about 35 %–40 % of the bauxite ores go into the residue as highly alkaline red mud slurry (pH 10.0–12.5) which contains 15 %–40 % of solid phase in volume [1, 2].Depending on the quality of bauxite ores, …

Abstract When producing alumina from aluminum-containing raw materials (bauxite, alunite), it is important to control the silica level in a solution of sodium aluminate. The studies show that this adsorbent having layered binary hydroxides, such as hydrocalumite sulfate AFm-SO4, is characterized by excellent desilication properties. …

the fineness and complex mineralogy of the bauxite resi-due. A recent work on iron removal from bauxite residue by selective flocculation shows promising results [15]. Nevertheless, the iron content is still high in the tailings and a new process needs to be developed for the recovery of aluminum, titanium, and REEs from tailings.

Aluminum-silicates such as pyrophyllite, illite, kaolinite and chlorite are impurity minerals in diasporic-bauxite, it being necessary to remove these silicate minerals to improve the mass ratio of Al2 O 3 /SiO 2 of diasporic-bauxite for the Bayer process. A new quaternary ammonium salt (DTAL) has been shown to be efficient in the flotation of ...

Bauxite reaction residue (BRR) produced from the poly-aluminum chloride (PAC) coagulant industry is a solid acidic waste that is harmful to environment. A low temperature synthesis route to convert the waste into water glass was reported. Silica dissolution process was systematically studied, including the thermodynamic analysis and the influence of …

Calcination was performed in muffle furnace (HTC 03/18/3N/PE, Nabertherm, Germany) in open corundum crucibles, heating time to temperature of 560-750°C was 30 min., sample weight was 10 gr., and ...

Strains H19 and G21 could significantly remove Si from the high silica bauxite by the production of organic acids and expolyssaccharides. Furthermore, our findings indicated that Burkholderia anthina G21 had a greater bio-desilication from the bauxite than Arthrobacter pascens H19 by producing more H + and higher organic acids …

1.. IntroductionThere are plenty of bauxite resources in China. However, more than 90% of the bauxite in China is of diasporic characteristics with low ratio of aluminum oxide to silica(A/S: 4–6) [1], [2].It cannot satisfy the basic condition (A/S > 8) to produce alumina(Al 2 O 3) through Bayer process [3], [4].Therefore, some complex flow …

The lack of efficient processes to remove kaolinite - the greatest bearer of reactive silica - from bauxite narrows the use of many aluminum ores, such as marginal bauxites from Northeastern Para.

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 …

Aluminum production from bauxite is achieved with the Bayer process, which is a hydrometallurgical method. However, in the Bayer process, in time, it is possible to encounter problems such as the formation of excessive amounts of red mud in aluminum production, its environmental risks, its requirement of large storage sites, the excessive …

Bauxite is the main raw material in primary aluminum production and its reactive silica content and mass ratio of Al2O3 to SiO2 (A/S) has a critical role in the economic viability of Bayer process.

According to the 2021 alumina and bauxite-related data released by the U.S. Geological Survey [29], the known bauxite resources worldwide were estimated at 32 billion tons, distributed in more than 50 countries. The largest bauxite reserves in the world were in Guinea (23%) and Australia (17%).
