Bauxite Types by Application
Metallurgical Grade Bauxite
Primarily used in aluminium production, this grade has a high alumina content, contributing to a range of everyday items, from cans to airplane parts.
Refractory
Grade Bauxite
Characterized by heat resistance and durability, it's used for refractory bricks and high-temperature cement, serving industries like steel and glass.
Abrasive
Grade Bauxite
Grinding grade bauxite is the ideal raw material for producing brown fused alumina due to its high AL2O3 content, low impurities, and low bulk density.
Welding
Grade Bauxite
Known for thermal stability and electrical conductivity, this grade is utilized in the production of welding rods, ensuring high performance in welding processes.
Bauxite Types by Calcined Method
Rotary Kiln Bauxite
Rotary Kiln Bauxite is produced using a rotating kiln, which allows for continuous calcination. This method results in a consistent product with high purity and consistent quality. The rotating action of the kiln ensures uniform temperature distribution, producing bauxite with superior physical properties. Rotary Kiln Calcined Bauxite typically has high alumina content and is widely used in the refractory industry and metallurgy industry.
Key Features:
- High alumina content
- Consistent quality
- Superior physical properties
Shaft Kiln Bauxite
Shaft Kiln Bauxite is produced in a vertical kiln, with the raw material loaded from the top and gradually moving downwards as it goes through the calcination process. While this method is slower compared to a rotary kiln, it offers high thermal efficiency and lower operational costs. Shaft kiln bauxite is often used where a lower cost, yet high-grade bauxite is required.
Key Features:
- High thermal efficiency
- Lower operational costs
- High-grade bauxite
Round Kiln Bauxite
Round Kiln Bauxite is processed in a round kiln. This older style of kiln, once used for pottery production, has lower production capacity than rotary or shaft kilns but can produce a very high-grade bauxite. It is often used in applications where a high alumina content is needed.
Key Features:
- High-grade bauxite
- High alumina content
- Suitable for applications requiring high-purity bauxite
Each calcination method produces Calcined Bauxite with distinct properties and performance characteristics. Choosing the right type depends on the specific requirements of your application.
Application of Calcined Bauxite
Calcined Bauxite is a highly versatile material that finds application in a wide range of industries due to its exceptional physical and chemical properties. Let’s take a closer look at the various areas where Calcined Bauxite plays a critical role.
Refractory Industry: The refractory industry relies heavily on Calcined Bauxite, given its high alumina content and extreme hardness. It is used for making refractory bricks and castable refractories that can withstand high temperatures. This, in turn, enables the industry to produce efficient furnaces and kilns with longer service lives.
Aluminium Production: Calcined Bauxite is the primary raw material for the extraction of alumina, which is then used for aluminium production. The metallurgical industry benefits immensely from Calcined Bauxite’s high alumina content, which enables the production of high-purity alumina. This, in turn, makes it possible to manufacture high-quality aluminium products.
Road Surfacing: Calcined Bauxite’s exceptional hardness and durability make it an ideal aggregate for high friction surfacing. This surface treatment is a cost-effective solution for maintaining road grip even under adverse weather conditions. High friction surfacing reduces the risk of accidents and improves overall road safety.
Abrasives: Abrasive materials produced from Calcined Bauxite are highly sought after in the manufacturing sector. Due to their high hardness, they are used in applications like grinding and polishing. The construction industry also benefits from Calcined Bauxite’s abrasiveness, as it is used in the production of abrasive discs and belts.
Welding Applications: Calcined Bauxite’s thermal stability makes it suitable for use in the production of welding grade bauxite, which is used to manufacture welding rods. The welding industry benefits from Calcined Bauxite’s durability and strength, which ensures that welding rods can withstand high temperatures without breaking or cracking.
