Characterization and flotation of low-grade boehmitic ...

2021-1-15  Bauxite is the main raw material in primary aluminum production and its reactive silica content and mass ratio of Al 2 O 3 to SiO 2 (A/S) has a critical role in the economic viability of Bayer process. As a major source of the reactive silica, clay impurities should be removed from the ore as much as possible by a beneficiation method such as froth flotation before the Bayer processing.

Kaolinite removal from bauxite by flotation - SciELO

The preparation of bauxite caused an increase in the alumina/silica mass ratio from 7.30 to 11.05. Subsequently, laboratory scale flotation tests were conducted to verify the reproducibility of the results indicated in the microflotation stage. Laboratory scale flotation tests were done in a Denver machine using a 900 mL cell.

THE FLOTATION OF MARGINAL GIBBSITIC BAUXITE

2012-8-17  ABSTRACT Bauxite ore is the primary mineral resource for the production of aluminum metal and includes gibbsite [Al(OH) 3], diaspore [α-AlO(OH)] and boehmite [γ-AlO(OH)]. Gangue minerals generally include iron oxides (Hematite [Fe 2O 3], Goethite [FeO(OH)]), silicates (quartz [SiO 2]), kaolinite [Al 2Si 2O 5(OH) 4] and others such as rutile/anatase [TiO 2].

Abstract World reserves of bauxite include vast quantities of ore which at present are sub-economic due to high levels of reactive silica that cause expensive loss of caustic soda during Bayer processing. As the economic reserves of high grade ores diminish, attention is turning to how these lower grade ores may be processed at reasonable cost.
