Problems solved by technology

Use aliphatic alcohol or alkylphenol as the extractant to extract the alkali component in the sodium aluminate solution, or separate the alkali component and high molecular ratio sodium aluminate solution through the electrolysis process, or carry out the process by introducing a third component such as methanol The method of dissolution and crystallization has disadvantages such as high production cost or high energy consumption, and the introduction of organic components irrelevant to the Bayer system, which makes it difficult for industrial application.
[0008] Therefore, the existing method cannot economically and effectively improve the medium circulation efficiency of the existing Bayer process alumina production process

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for improving production efficiency of aluminium oxide produced with the Bayer process. According to the method, caustic soda flakes required to be supplemented for an aluminium oxide plant are subjected to a reaction with Bayer-process seeded precipitation spent liquor or evaporation mother liquor, a sodium aluminate solution with high alkali and high molecular ratio is formed, and carbon alkali removal and causticizing of Bayer mother liquor can be realized without forced effect evaporation and other processes; by means of efficient crystallization of sodiumaluminate hydrate as an intermediate product, circulating efficiency of dissolution media and production capacity of the conventional equipment can be improved. Synchronous salt elimination and causticizing and improvement of medium circulating efficiency can be realized on the premise that other substances or energy are or is not input; the newly added sodium aluminate hydrate crystallization process is mild in condition, equipment investment is low, industrial controllability is high, and economic benefit is obvious. The aluminium oxide product prepared with the method is identical to thatof the aluminium oxide product produced with the Bayer process, no new waste gas, waste liquor or solid waste is produced, and energy conservation and environmental protection are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of alumina production, in particular to a method for improving the efficiency of alumina production by Bayer process. Background technique [0002] The metal aluminum and alumina industry is an important basic raw material industry for the development of the national economy. More than 90% of the total output of industrial alumina is used for electrolytic production of metal aluminum, and the rest is used in the fields of electronics, refractory materials, petroleum, chemical industry, ceramics, environmental protection and pharmaceuticals. [0003] In 2017, my country's alumina output was 69.02 million tons, accounting for 56.2% of the world's output. At present, the industrial production method of alumina is basically alkali method, mainly including Bayer method, sintering method and Bayer-sintering combined method. Thanks to the advancement of technology and equipment, and subject to economic constraint...
