Bauxite residue (BR), an alkaline industrial waste, is a major byproduct of the alumina production process known as the Bayer process. The Bayer process generates a byproduct known as bauxite residue (red mud). This residue was leached with sulfuric acid in a pilot plant of Mytilineos to recover scandium. Scandium was selectively recovered in pilotscale experiments using ion exchange.

In this study, bauxite residue was directly leached using the Brønsted acidic ionic liquid 1ethyl3methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate. Stirring rate, retention time, temperature, and pulp density have been studied in detail as the parameters that affect the leaching process. Their optimized combination has shown high recovery yields of Sc, nearly 80%, and Ti (90%), almost total dissolution ...

Bauxite residue (BR) is a well promising resource for critical metals, especially scandium (Sc), a rare and expensive metal with increasing applications in advanced technology. Greek BR seems to significantly favor a commercially viable recovery of Sc combining optimized leaching and advanced separation techniques. Leaching with mineral acids emerges as the dominant selection compared to other ...

Therefore, the leaching process with dilute HNO 3 has been performed and optimized at a pilot scale for the recovery of scandium from bauxite residue . According to Petrakova et al., leaching with nitric acid could be a problem due to the absorption of nitrate ions on the residue, so that large volumes of water are needed for their removal [ 43 ].

The leaching process with dilute HNO 3 was performed at pilot scale and optimized for the extraction of scandium from bauxite residue ( OchsenkühnPetropoulou et al., 2002 ). Xue et al. (2010) found that at a reaction temperature of 90 °C and an L/S ratio of 3:1, over 80% of the scandium in bauxite residue could be leached by H 2 SO 4.

In the leaching method, bauxite ore is digested with a concentrated solution of N a O H that produces X. When C O 2 gas is passed through the aqueous solution of X, a hydrated compound Y is precipitated. X and Y are N a [A l (O H) 4 ] and A l 2 O 3 ⋅ x H 2 O respectively.

The Bayer process is the main method of alumina production worldwide. The use of lowquality bauxites for alumina production results in the formation of a significant amount of technogenic waste—bauxite residue (BR). The Bayer reductive method is one possible way to eliminate BR stockpiling, but it requires highpressure leaching at temperatures higher than 220 °C.

Principle processflow diagram of bauxite leaching with HCl based on reference [112]. Many metallic elements in bauxite can be leached in an acid solution. Thus, iron, aluminum or other metallic elements are leached and recovered together during the acidleaching process. However, some problems with acid treatment remain, including severe ...

The results indicated that leaching of bauxite is the rate controlling process. The activation energy was determined to be kJ/mole, which was characteristic for a chemically controlled process. ... The effect of particle size on leaching of bauxite was studied using different size fractions (100+150 mesh, 150+200 mesh and 200+270 mesh

An example of the leaching process would be the leaching of Al 2 O 2 O (or bauxite) with a heated and concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide. In this example, the concentrated NaOH dissolves the aluminium present in the bauxite whereas the impurities such as Fe 2 O 3, TiO 2, and SiO 2, are not dissolved by the reagent.

Bauxite is widely used to produce alumina. There are many bauxite resources with high iron content. These resources could not be processed and utilized efficiently due to the high concentration of iron (Fe). The alkaline leaching process has been proposed to remove iron from these bauxite resources. Therefore, in this study, the alkaline leaching process was employed, and the effects of sodium ...

The calcification‑carbonation method is a novel technology recovering Na 2 O and Al 2 O 3 from bauxite residue through mineral transformation, which realizes the harmless treatment of bauxite residue simultaneously. It is mainly realized by two key transformation steps such as calcification transformation and carbonation transformation of the slag phase, and multiple wet process series steps.

In this process, bauxite residue is smelted at 1500 °C or higher in presence of a flux and a reductant to produce pig iron and slag. Alumina in the produced slag is mainly in the form of calcium aluminate that can be treated with Na 2 CO 3 solution. The leach residue generated from this process is known as gray mud.

Hint: Baeyer's process is a process used for the leaching of bauxite ( an ore of aluminium ). The reagent chosen should be the one which is a strong reducing agent. Complete answer: Leaching is a process which consists of treating the powdered ore with a suitable reagent such as acid base or other chemicals which can selectively dissolve the ore but not the impurities.
