Bauxite is the main raw material in alumina and refractory industries. China has plentiful bauxite resources, most of which belong to the diaspore type bauxite with characteristics of high aluminum content, high silicon content and low ratio of alumina and silica (A/S). The resources with A/S 4-7 account for more than 60% of the total resource …
The effects of the ball shape, the short cylindrical and the mxied grinding media on selective grinding of bauxite were studied, respectively. The results show that the coarse particles are overgrind due to the powerful impact of big ball abrasive particles. The mass ratio of Al_2O_3 to SiO_2 in coarse particles is increased by the abrasive effect of small …
Bauxite is the major alumina (Al 2 O 3) bearing ore used in the aluminum manufacturing industries.The bauxite containing less than 50% Al 2 O 3 is called low-grade bauxite ore which is commonly used for the alumina -based abrasives and refractories productions. The alumina -silica and alumina -ferrite complexes are the …
The selective grinding in vibration mill for bauxite whose components ratio in fraction of w(Al2O3)/w(SiO2)=4.4 was investigated via tests.The results showed that component ratio of coarse-particle bauxite ground is comparatively higher if its mass fraction in pulp is 70%,which means a better selectivity.And if the mass ratio of ground material to …
The crystallized-amorphous (CAB) phase is considered a marginal bauxite because it presents a high quantity of SiO2reactive and its use depends on special technologies. CAB was characterized and the results were compared with the bauxite used nowadays in the alumina plant. Characterization was performed by XRD, IR, XRF, chemical analysis, …
The grinding media process of (column + ball) results in the best selective grinding application for bauxite. Considering the restrictions on particle size in the flotation process and the subsequent requirements for an optimum particle size for the Bayer process, the optimum upstream processing method is the "selective

The subsequent optimization of the grinding mode (type of the grinding media, the filling degree of the mill, the mill speed and the dilution) showed a possibility …
Effects of DA as a Grinding Aid on Selective Grinding of Low-Grade Bauxite Effects of DA (a copolymer of acrylic acid and acrylamide) as a grinding aid on selective grinding of low-grade bauxite were investigated in this study. The addition of DA into the grinding system enhanced the selectivity of grinding and increased the A/S ratio in the coarse …
This paper introduces the survey of bauxite resources in China, analyses the basal principle of selective dissociation, then details dissociation process flow and selective grinding, finally ...
In this study, sedimentation tests for individual minerals and artificially mixed minerals and bauxite ores were carried out to understand the effects of sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) on the selective flocculation of diasporic-bauxite in the presence of Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ ions. It was found that STPP can mitigate the detrimental effects of …

Compared with 650 and 700 °C, the pre-desilication results of low-grade bauxite after thermal activation at 600 °C had a significant improvement. Only after 30 min of leaching, the ratio of alumina to silica of low-grade bauxite can be increased from 2.39 to 6.78. This study may have a certain significance for selecting a suitable thermal ...
Abstract. The most common process step to feed an alumina refinery with bauxite is sizing of the raw bauxite material that is extracted from the mine. The first …

For example, the selective grinding of bauxite was studied for the development and utilization of low-grade bauxite, including the influences of the mill type, media, and grinding agent. Ball mill is commonly applied to grind minerals by using steel balls to crush material. When the steel ball meets the material, the material breaks under …
