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 keep sodium …

Effect of size classification on the silica removal of −25 mm bauxite ore. The effect of size classification on the silica removal of −100 mm bauxite ore is shown in Fig. 4.15 . The result indicates that by wet classification at 0.5 mm it is possible to achieve 33% total silica removal with 93% yield.

bauxite is composed of gibbsite as aluminous mineral, kaolinite as silicate mineral and goethite iron mineral. It is formed by leaching of silica from aluminosilicate rock. Lateritic bauxite is classified into six major types on the basis of conditions of weathering and deposit age [7]. The karst bauxite is composed of boehmite and diaspore as
