Abstract/Description:
Production of alumina from Bayer’s process results in the generation of a tremendous amount of toxic waste called ˜Red Mud”.  Production of 1 to 3 tons of alumina requires 3.3 to 6 tons of bauxite ore, which results in the production of 1.5 to 4 tons of red mud. The following project is focused on hydrometallurgical recycling of bauxite residue to generate value-added product products such as magnetite, alumina, titanium, and rare earth oxides.
