3.1 Introduction to Crushing and Grinding of Bauxite. The most common initial process step to feed an alumina refinery with bauxite is the crushing or sizing of the raw bauxite material that is extracted from the mine. The feed material is crushed or sized so that it is conveyable, as well as correctly dimensioned, for the next step in the process.

We have estimated that the global inventory of bauxite residue reached 1 billion tonnes in 1985, 93 years since the establishment of the first Bayer process plant. This inventory grew to 2 Bt by 2000, a doubling time of only 15 years. The inventory was almost 2.7 Bt by 2007, growing at 120 million tonnes per annum.

Bauxite, the raw material for the production of alumina, was first discovered in 1924 at Kijang, Bintan Island, in the province of Riau, in northwestern Indonesia. Bauxite from Bintan Island has been mined and exported since 1935. In 1968 ANTAM acquired the mine. Thus, ANTAM is Indonesia's longest running producer of bauxite.

Bauxite residue (red mud) is a solid waste produced in the process of alumina extraction from bauxite. More than 70 million tons of bauxite residue is generated annually. Presently, it is stored on land or in the ocean near alumina refineries. However, its high alkalinity is a potential pollution to water, land and air of close proximity.
