The two BoVac Disc filters L176 are operated in an Australian Alumina refinery for filtration of Al-hydrate fine seed before being recycled to the precipitation tanks. Read more Vacuum Filtration.
The Bayer process is the principal industrial means of refining bauxite to produce alumina (aluminium oxide) and was developed by Carl Josef Bayer.Bauxite, the most important ore of aluminium, contains only 30–60% aluminium oxide (Al 2 O 3), the rest being a mixture of silica, various iron oxides, and titanium dioxide.
Alumina would be directly loaded from the refinery onto ships for transport to the smelter or customer, while inventories of bauxite, lime, spares and parts would be stored in onshore facilities. As an alternative, it would also be possible to support the storage of materials and services with barges or ships, as opposed to land-based infrastructure.
An improved process for the production of tricalcium aluminate (TCA) filter aid for use in an alumina refinery is described. Quicklime is slaked in a slaker tin using a suitable slaking solution to form a slaked lime slurry ( 10 ).
Outotec launches a new filter for the alumina industry – Outotec Larox VPF Posted by Matrix on 21st December 2011 The Outotec Larox ® VPF, Vertical Pressure Filter (VPF), was originally developed by Australian Process Technology, a filters supplier for the alumina refining industry.
Our integrated alumina refinery concept features state-of-the-art process technology and proprietary equipment in a highly modular and standardized solution that offers the ideal balance between customizability and cost effectiveness. Integrates easily into both greenfield and brownfield projects. Can be easily customized to meet your specific
In 2016 AWAC commissioned at its Kwinana alumina refinery in Western Australia, a residue filtration processes that uses very large filters to extract water from bauxite residue. The water obtained via the process is recycled back into the refinery process. Application of this technology has deferred the need to construct another 30-hectare
June 22, 2021. admin Alumina. The Australian Renewable Energy Agency is awarding Alcoa of Australia AUD 11.3 million toward testing the potential use of renewable energy in a Mechanical Vapor Recompression process for alumina refining. Total project cost is AUD 28.2 million. The development project has the potential to reduce carbon emissions
Most alumina refineries have multiple filters that need to be monitored for production efficiency and damage. On each of the 20 filters, safety rated pressure transmitters are used in conjunction with the STA – Safety Trip Alarm. The STA acts as the safety logic solver, used to close the final control element
Hence, vacuum filters can not be used for polishing filtration of aluminate liquor in Alumina refinery and therefore, Pressure filters are the only option for this unit operation. Hope, I have clarified the issue to the extent possible. however, if you have some other reasons to explain, please feel free in sharing your views.

1. A process for the production of TCA filter aid for use in an alumina refinery, the process including the steps of: slaking lime in a slaking solution to form a slaked lime slurry; dosing said slaking solution or slaked lime slurry with a suitable surface-active agent; reacting the dosed slaked lime slurry with a Bayer process liquor, and, ageing the reaction products for a sufficiently long

Since 2006, Alteo Gardanne Alumina Refinery has launched a significant environmental program to improve its management of bauxite residue as well as wastewater disposal. Red mud from bauxite residue had been sent to the ‘Fosse de Cassidaigne’, a trench in the Mediterranean Sea via a 55 km long pipe, for 50 years.

by truck, rail or conveyor to the refinery. Processing At the refinery, the bauxite is stored in a stockpile by a stacker for later reclaiming and processing into alumina. Roller screening of the bauxite to remove coarse waste material may be the first unit operation before the bauxite is crushed in one or more stages to
Alumina-coated carbon-bonded alumina filters, coked at 1400 °C (left: with thermal treatment of the substrate material at 800 °C, resulting in pure oxide coating material, right: without thermal pretreatment of the substrate material, leading to bigger struts thicknesses and carbon-containing alumina coating material).

Alumina is a vital step towards production of metallic aluminium. The Bayer process requires a great deal of filtration capacity yet presents enormously challenging conditions for filtration equipment. The filter equipment and filter cloth suppliers have responded, and continue to do so, producing robust filtration products.
Alumina would be directly loaded from the refinery onto ships for transport to the smelter or customer, while inventories of bauxite, lime, spares and parts would be stored in onshore facilities. As an alternative, it would also be possible to support the storage of materials and services with barges or ships, as opposed to land-based infrastructure.
