The Bayer Process is the hydrometallurgical treatment of bauxite ore for the extraction of alumina. This thesis reports on the development and utilisation of key by-products including:• Carbonated Red Mud and Alkaloam® - produced from the fine bauxite residue commonly termed red mud• Red Sand™ - manufactured from coarse bauxite residue• Red Lime™ - a by-product of liquor causticisation• Bayer-derived geopolymers - a cement replacement made from processed Bayer liquor. | |
