The next stage in the production chain is the processing of bauxite into alumina, or aluminium oxide - Al 2 O 3, - a white powder. The most common process for making alumina from bauxite is the Bayer process, which was first discovered over 100 years ago but is still in wide use today. About 90% of alumina refineries in the world use the Bayer ...

Bauxite is the main ore of aluminium and to be commercially exploited should contain more than 25-30% aluminium oxide. The main constraint is the amount of available alumina which can be extracted by the Bayer or similar process. It is named after Les Baux de Provence, in southern France; the major producers are Australia and Brazil.

Bauxite consists mostly of the aluminium minerals gibbsite (Al (OH) 3 ), boehmite (γ-AlO (OH)) and diaspore (α-AlO (OH)), mixed with the two iron oxides goethite (FeO (OH)) and haematite (Fe 2 O 3 ), the aluminium clay mineral kaolinite (Al 2 Si 2 O 5 (OH) 4) and small amounts of anatase (TiO 2) and ilmenite (FeTiO 3 or FeO.TiO 2 ).

Bauxite is then converted into aluminum oxide, or alumina, using natural gas at plants located in the southern United States. After alumina is extracted from bauxite ore, further processing called 'smelting' is necessary to convert it into aluminum. In this process, alumina is dissolved in a solution and a strong electric current is applied.

Pure aluminium oxide, called alumina, is extracted from bauxite via a process called refining, composed of two steps: a digestion process, using caustic soda, which allows the separation of aluminium hydroxide from the so-called "bauxite residue", followed by a calcination step which removes the water content in the hydroxide.

First, Bauxite ore is crushed, washed and mixed with caustic soda to remove impurities. Then it is dried in large furnaces to remove moisture content=> you get alumina. During this phase, ~50% or more weight loss happens. Hence, this process (of converting bauxite to Alumina) is done near the raw material side.

Other materials could be used instead of bauxite for alumina production. Clay minerals, alunite, anorthosite, power plant ash, and oil shale could be used to produce alumina but at higher costs, using different processes. Silicon carbide and synthetic corundum are sometimes used in place of bauxite-based abrasives.

Aluminium ore, most commonly bauxite, is plentiful and occurs mainly in tropical and sub-tropical areas - Africa, West Indies, South America and Australia - with some deposits in Europe. Although plentiful, bauxite quality is diminishing, is often not readily accessible and is becoming harder to gain approvals for expansions or new mines.
