Energy consumption has taken more and more attention in process industries to enhance their competitiveness in the world. An effective analysis method will be very helpful to provide the direction of energy saving for a plant. Exergy analysis method was introduced into energy intensity-product ratio analysis model (e-p analysis model), and …

Before the digestion, addition of 2.11% lime to the bauxite samples decreases the alumina recovery and increases the Na 2 O/SiO 2 ratio of red mud with increase in temperature. The highest alumina recovery and the lowest Na 2 O/SiO 2 ratio were achieved at 240 °C. It can be explained that lime partly reacts with silica in the …

The ultimate product of calcination is the most stable phase of alumina, corundum or -alumina. This is, however, not desirable for smelting, because -alumina is slow to dissolve in the bath (refer to Section 24). For the formation of Smelting Grade Alumina (SGA), calcination is carried out at around 950°C.

of alumina in the stream. Controlling this alumina/ caustic (A/C) ratio in the digester is essential to the process. Generally, the process is most efficient when the ratio is higher. An abnormally high ratio, on the other hand, causes early precipitation of alumina on the filters, causing product loss and scaling problems.
