Introduction. Aluminum is too high in the electrochemical series (reactivity series) to extract it from its ore using carbon reduction. The temperatures needed are too high to be economic. Instead, it is extracted by electrolysis. The ore is first converted into pure aluminum oxide by the Bayer Process, and this is then electrolyzed in solution in molten cryolite another aluminum compound.
Bauxite can be found in a number of different physical forms including: pisolitic, friable and hardcap. Each bauxite will have its own distinctive crushing and milling characteristics. Bauxite can be highly variable through the mine pit profile, both vertically and horizontally. Often large blocks from blasted or ripped bauxite can be upto 1±2 m 3
Bauxite is the principal ore of aluminum. The first step in producing aluminum is to crush the bauxite and purify it using the Bayer Process. In the Bayer Process, the bauxite is washed in a hot solution of sodium hydroxide, which leaches aluminum from the bauxite. The aluminum is precipitated out of solution in the form of aluminum hydroxide ...
