Primary production involves mining bauxite deposits from the earth, chemically refining it into pure aluminum oxide and performing electrometallurgical processing to ultimately form aluminum. Secondary production makes new aluminum from recycled scrap that for many products, like cans, is completely suitable for the same high quality.
More
Bayer process is a leaching process of bauxite. This process is use to produce high purity alumina (needed in subsequent electrolysis process) by leaching bauxite by NaOH. Leaching is done in autoclave at high presuure ( 25-30 atm) and high temperature (220 o C), which produces a soluble aluminate (2NaAlO 2 ), and from which we precipitate out Al(OH) 3 .

Bauxite Ore Processing. Aluminum is found in varying amounts in nature as aluminosilicates (contains aluminum, silicon, and oxygen) in various types of clay. As the minerals are weathered they gradually breakdown into various forms of hydrated aluminum oxide, Al 2 O 3.xH 2 O, known as bauxite. The bauxite is purified by the Bayer Process.
More
The Bayer Process was invented and patented in 1887 by Austrian scientist Karl Josef Bayer. Two to three tonnes of bauxite are required to produce one tonne of alumina. 90% of the global alumina supply of around 90 million tonnes is used in aluminium production.

2024年5月19日 From Bauxite to alumina How is Aluminum Extracted? Extracting aluminum from bauxite is a two-step process. First, we need to refine bauxite to produce alumina (aluminum oxide). This is done through a process called the Bayer Process. In this process, bauxite is mixed with sodium hydroxide, which dissolves the alumina.

Bauxite contains 40-60% hydrated aluminium oxide mixed with silica and iron oxide. It is the latter that gives bauxite its characteristic red colour. The name "bauxite" comes from the village of Les Baux-de-Provence in Bouches-du-Rhône (France), where the mineralogist Pierre Berthier first analysed the ore in 1821.
More2016年4月11日 Other major steps in the process are the precipitation of aluminum hydroxide from the sodium aluminate liquor and the calcination of the aluminum hydroxide to produce aluminum oxide (alumina).
