Bauxite & alumina Norsk Hydro
Bauxite is the most common raw material used to produce alumina for aluminium metal production. Bauxite deposits are mainly found in a wide belt around the equator. Hydro’s bauxite mines are located in the state of The Bayer process is a chemical process for refining aluminium hydroxide, Al(OH) 3 from bauxite; this aluminium hydroxide is subsequently calcined to produce alumina, Al 2 O 3.The basis of the Bayer process is an understanding of the characteristics of the sodium-hydroxide—sodium-aluminate solution relationship, namely its ability to Chemical Processing of Bauxite: Alumina and Silica Minerals

Extraction and Utilization of Valuable Elements from Bauxite
Bauxite is the ideal raw material for the manufacturing of alumina. Aside from the primary constituents of aluminum and silicon, bauxite is frequently coupled with many valuable elements such as gallium (Ga), titanium (Ti), scandium (Sc), and lithium (Li). The bauxite residue and circulating spent liquor in alumina production typically include 3.1 Introduction to Crushing and Grinding of Bauxite. The most common initial process step to feed an alumina refinery with bauxite is the crushing or sizing of the raw bauxite material that is extracted from the mine. The feed material is crushed or sized so that it is conveyable, as well as correctly dimensioned, for the next step in the process.Physical Bauxite Processing: Crushing and Grinding of Bauxite

Towards an Integrated Bauxite and Aluminium Industry
The Integrated bauxite and Alumina project is a flagship project that aims to unlock the potential of Ghana’s bauxite, starting with the mining of bauxite deposits at Nyinahin and KibiThe additional construction cost of acid process equipment, additional processing cost to recover purified alumina, and the cost of treating and disposal of acidic wastes have resulted in none of these acidic processes being commercially viable at this time.

The Bayer Process: From Bauxite to Aluminum Hydroxide
The corresponding equipment in the aluminium oxide plant is marked in Fig. 20.1. Fig. 20.2. Schematic of the actual Bayer process. (Adapted from aos-stade.de) Full size image. 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: digestedIn the Bayer Process, the bauxite is washed in a hot solution of sodium hydroxide, which leaches aluminum from the bauxite. The aluminum is precipitated out of solution in the form of aluminum hydroxide, Al(OH) 3. The aluminum hydroxide is then calcined to form alumina, Al 2 O 3. Aluminum is smelted from the alumina using the Hall-Heroult Process.Bauxite: The principal ore of aluminum. Geology

The Bayer process is used for refining bauxite to smelting grade alumina (Al 2 O 3), the precursor to aluminium. The process was developed and patented by Karl Josef Bayer 110 years ago, and hasBauxite is the main raw material of the alumina industry. However, high-sulfur bauxite constitutes a relatively large proportion of bauxite resource in China. Excessive sulfur impurities in bauxite have significant impact on the Bayer process, such as corrosion of equipment and pipelines, increased consumption of alkali, and difficulties inGeologic characteristics and potential of bauxite in China
