Compared to the rotarykiln and fluidizedbed calcination processes, the use of conveyorbed technology has obvious advantages in terms of energy saving and high efficiency. Due to the short calcination time of the conveyorbed process, the desulfurization of highsulfur bauxite is very sensitive to the effect of temperature and time parameters.

There are two key processes in an alumina refinery. Firstly, the Bayer process uses steam to extract alumina crystals from the bauxite. This consumes around 70 per cent of the energy used at the refinery. Secondly, a hightemperature calcination process removes chemically bound water from the alumina crystals.

Introduction. The production of alumina is associated with the coproduction of bauxite residue (BR). Most alumina refineries in the world use the Bayer process in which bauxite ore is leached with NaOH (Power et al., 2011; Evans 2016).While the main product of these refineries is aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH) 3 or Al 2 O 2 O), which results in alumina (Al 2 O 3) after calcination, a solid ...

The Pedersen process is an alternative process for the production of alumina. Initially, bauxite ores, or other aluminous materials, are smelted with lime to produce pig iron and a slag of mainly calcium aluminate composition. The latter is subsequently leached in Na 2 CO 3 solutions to extract alumina hydrate.
