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.

Before mining can commence the land needs to be cleared of timber and vegetation. Alongside this process may be the collection of seeds and/or saplings, for inclusion in a seedbank, which will form the basis of postmining revegetation of the site. Next the top soil is removed and is usually also stored for replacement during rehabilitation.

The mineralogy of the bauxites has a significant impact on the operation of the Bayer process for alumina production. Typically, the Bayer process produces smeltergrade alumina of % Al 2 O 3, starting from bauxite containing 30% to 60% Al 2 O 3. The main objective of the Bayer process is to extract the maximum amount of aluminum from the ...

Bauxite is crushed, dried and ground in special mills where it is mixed with a small amount of water. This process produces a thick paste that is collected in special containers and heated with steam to remove most of the silicon present in bauxites. The ore is loaded into autoclaves and treated with limecaustic soda.

Step 4 Digestion process. In the digestion process, the slurry is heated to 270℃ to form a sodium aluminate supersaturated solution or "pregnant liquor". A hot caustic soda (NaOH) solution can dissolve the aluminiumbearing minerals in the bauxite. There are two types of bauxite: gibbsite, böhmite and diaspore.
