The Bayer process for alumina production generates more than 160 million tons of bauxite residue annually. The current global stockpiles of bauxite residue have reached more than 4 billion tons with less than 2% annual recycling rate. Critical elements such as Sc and Y present an opportunity to explore bauxite residue as a secondary resource; however, low concentration affects the process ...

Commercial utilization of highsulfur diasporic bauxite is challenging because of the hazards of sulfur to the Bayer process. This article discusses a case study of producing alumina from highsulfur bauxite containing chlorite at an alumina refinery in Zunyi, Guizhou, China. Application of flotation desulfurization and chemical oxidation method can control the iron content of the alumina ...

In almost all commercial operations, alumina is extracted from the bauxite by the Bayer refining process. The process, discovered by Karl Josef Bayer in 1888, consists of four stages. Digestion: the finely ground bauxite is fed into a steamheated unit called a digester. Here it is mixed, under pressure, with a hot solution of caustic soda.

The Bayer Process is the most economic means of obtaining alumina from bauxite. Other processes for obtaining alumina from metal ores are also in use in some refineries, particularly in China and Russia, although these make up a relatively small percentage of global production. The process stages are: 1. Milling

The Bayer Process, developed by Carl Josef Bayer. is the principal industrial means of refining bauxite to produce alumina (aluminium oxide). In this process, aluminium ore is treated with concentrated sodium hydroxide to form a soluble sodium aluminate. Sodium aluminate is filtered, and the filtrate on heating with water gives aluminium hydroxide.
