The soda sintering process is used for materials which are hardly digestible via the Bayer process and requires high temperatures of °C, usually °C[13 17]. It is basically a "dry digestion" of aluminum oxides with soda (Na 2CO 3) and employs the principle of the sodapotash digestion, but in this case without ...

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 sus pension is pumped through the pipes of a reactor and heated up in stages to approx. 270 °C. The lye dissolves almost specifically as the temperature rises and under pressure.

The Bayer Process. The Bayer Process, which is used by about 80 active plants worldwide, is the primary method of producing aluminum from bauxite. Bauxite ore is dissolved in sodium hydroxide, or lye, at a high temperature and pressure. Then, the alumina and bauxite ores are separated by washing out the waste (red muds or sands) from the alumina.

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 current Bayer process focused on alumina extraction without considering the comprehensive utilization of other valuable components, such as iron, and the resulting red mud caused severe ecological and environmental safety risks. This work proposed a clean twostage Bayer digestion technology to obtain ironrich red mud with low Na 2 O content from highiron gibbsitic bauxite processing.

The aim of this work was to achieve an understanding of the distribution of selected bauxite trace elements (gallium (Ga), vanadium (V), arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), rare earth elements (REEs), scandium (Sc)) in the Bayer process. The assessment was designed as a case study in an alumina plant in operation to provide an overview of the trace elements behaviour in an actual industrial setup.
