At the start of the process, the bauxite is finely ground and, with the addition of caustic soda, converted into a viscous suspension (chemists say: digested). The suspension is pumped through the pipes of a reactor and heated up in stages to approx. 270 °C.

The Bayer process is the principal industrial means of refining bauxite to produce alumina (aluminium oxide) and was developed by Carl Josef, the most important ore of aluminium, contains only 3060% aluminium oxide (Al 2 O 3), the rest being a mixture of silica, various iron oxides, and titanium aluminium oxide must be further purified before it can be refined into ...

In the Bayer process, bauxite is digested with sodium hydroxide solution at high temperature and pressure producing alumina and generating the waste known as 'red mud' or 'bauxite residue' in large quantity. After the process, the residue which is alkaline in nature has pH of and is disposed of in red mud ponds.

Aluminum Production. Alton T. Tabereaux, Ray D. Peterson, in Treatise on Process Metallurgy: Industrial Processes, 2014 Impact of Different Bauxites on the Bayer Process. The Bayer process is basically used for the extraction of aluminum hydrate from the bauxite ores with the mass ratio of alumina to silica (A/S) above 9. The sinter process is widely used to process the poorgrade ...

Effect of thermal conversion gibbsitic bauxite in Bayer digestion Alumina recovery To minimize the inhibitory effect caused by Algoethite on gibbsitic bauxite digestion, the lowtemperature roasting process was used to pretreat bauxite before Bayer digestion.

The Bayer process involves four steps: digestion, clarification, precipitation, and calcination. In the first step, bauxite is ground, slurried with a solution of caustic soda ( sodium hydroxide ), and pumped into large pressure tanks called digesters, where the ore is subjected to steam heat and pressure.

Bayer process includes digestion of crushed bauxite in an alkali solution of sodium hydroxide, followed by solidliquid separation to generate sodium aluminate liquor for alumina recovery and subsequently produces a residual slurry (bauxite residue/red mud).

To maintain economic alumina production, a number of investigations have been conducted to try and minimise the impact of silica on the economics of existing processes and to develop new methods for processing high silica bauxite (Smith, 2009).One of the methods is to effectively preconcentrate high silica bauxite or aluminous minerals by the roastleach process (Smith and Xu, 2010, Jiang et ...

A large amount of alumina has to be produced in order to produce aluminum in the HallHéroult process; it requires about 4 t of bauxite to produce 2 t of alumina and it takes almost 2 t of alumina to produce 1 t of aluminum metal. The two largest operating costs per ton of alumina in Bayer plants are bauxite and fuel. Bayer Process

The Bayer process is a continuous process which may be separated into four simple steps: hydrothermal digestion, where the bauxite is heated in hot caustic soda solutions to dissolve the aluminium bearing minerals; clarification, where separation of the aluminiumrich solutions and undissolved components of bauxite (bauxite residue) occurs; crys...

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 ...
