During the Bayer process for alumina production, the molecular formula of the bauxite residue is approximately equivalent to Na 2 O·Al 2 O 3 ·1.7SiO 2 ·nH 2 O. This means that 1 kg of SiO 2 in bauxite will produce 1 kg of Al 2 O 3 and 0.608 kg of Na 2 O in bauxite residue. Thus, the extraction efficiency of alumina is low when processing low-grade bauxite.
consuming. However, bauxite residue that is generated from karst bauxite ores contains a significant amount of rare-earth elements (REEs). Practically all REEs end up in the bauxite residue during the Bayer process (Binnemans et al., 2015). Many researchers have studied the direct acid leaching of bauxite residue for recovering
