The Pedersen process is an alternative process for the production of alumina.

The latter is subsequently leached in Na 2 CO 3 solutions to extract alumina hydrate.

The preparation process of highpurity PACl with calcium aluminum and bauxite is developed, and the production cost is lower than that of acid dissolving of aluminum hydroxide. The metal ions can be effectively removed from the liquid PACl solution at both room and high temperatures.
In addition, slaked lime (Ca(OH) 2) is typically added within the Bayer process to enhance extraction of the available alumina from bauxite and this can lead to the formation of many solid phase calcium hydroxides, carbonates and aluminates, such as TCA (tricalcium aluminate — Ca 3 Al 2 (OH) 12). These solids act as an alkalinity store and ...
Alternative sustainable process for bauxite treatment to alumina is the Pedersen process, which was patented in 1920s and was in operation in Norway for many years before closing down due to economic reasons. In this process, bauxite is smelted and reduced, which yields pig iron and a calcium aluminate slag. Alumina is further produced from the ...
Abstract Bauxite residue (red mud—RM), a byproduct of the Bayer process for refining bauxite to alumina, is highly alkaline (pH ∼ 13) and its treatment and storage poses unique waste management challenges.

The solid addition of a calcium source, such as gypsum or bassanite avoids many of the complications mentioned thus far for 'inprocess' bauxite residue neutralisation, however it appears that the effectiveness of these compounds is compromised by encapsulation, requiring relatively higher dosages to be used.
Calcium oxide plays an important role in alumina production by binding SiO2 from aluminosilicate raw materials (bauxite, nepheline, kaolinite, etc.) in aluminumfree compounds.
