Funded Activity Summary

Development of a novel technology for DSP separation and soda recovery in alumina refineries. The successful completion of this project will provide economic and environmental benefits to the Australian alumina industry. For example, this project will provide an effective and economical method for separation of DSP (desilication product) from red mud (thus reducing the pollution by the long-term alkalinity) as well as a new solution to soda recovery. The technology developed will be able to be used as an example to the waste management and recovery of other Australian mineral, energy and chemical industries. The modelling and mechanism studies will also contribute to materials separation and processing.
