1. Introduction The Bayer process accounts for over 90% of the world's commercial production of alumina. The process involves digestion of bauxite in a caustic soda solution at temperatures ranging from 100 to 250 °C, depending on the form of alumina in the bauxite, gibbsitic, boehmitic or diasporic.

Bauxite residue (BR) is generated as a byproduct of the Bayer process. Approximately tons of BR is generated per ton of alumina production but the quantity of bauxite residue depends upon on the quality of the processed bauxite ore and the processing parameter (Primary Aluminium Production).The annual generation of BR in 2019 alone was estimated as 175 million tons (Archambo and Kawatra ...

The Bayer process is the principal method for the production of alumina from bauxite worldwide. The modern version of the process (developed in the 1880's) still maintains the key steps of dissolution of aluminarich minerals into hot caustic solution, separation of the insoluble phases, followed by gibbsite precipitation and calcination of the gibbsite to alumina (Al 2 O 3).
