| Many trace elements are present in Bayer liquors. These come almost entirely from the bauxite ore, where they may occur either as pure minerals in small amounts or (more often) as contaminants of other mineral components. In most cases, the concentration of each trace element in the plant liquors tends to increase until a steady state is reached. This project aims to increase the understanding of the chemistry of these elements in highly concentrated, alkaline solutions and allow improved control of their deportment through alumina refineries. | |
