Therefore, direct (solidstate) reduction was considered as an alternative process for the production of iron from bauxite residue. In the solidstate reduction, bauxite residue is reduced with a solid or gaseous reductant [6870]. The reduced mass after magnetic separation can be used for steel making or as a charge to the blast furnace .

process. Keywords: Bauxite, Reduction, Hydrogen, Plasma Processing, Leaching. 1. Introduction. Extraction of metals from their ores (mainly oxide ores) is primarily made through the process of carbothermic reduction [1, 2]. Such reduction process produces a great lot of CO. 2 (carbon dioxide) which is responsible for greenhouse effect.
In the conventional Pedersen Process, iron in the bauxite is separated in the form of pig iron through a carbothermic smeltingreduction step which has a CO 2 emission similar to that during conventional iron production.

Bauxite is a sedimentary rock mineral that is the primary source of aluminum. It is formed through the weathering of aluminumrich rocks in tropical and subtropical regions. The name bauxite is derived from the French village of Les Baux, where it was first discovered in 1821 by geologist Pierre Berthier. Bauxite is typically found in layers beneath a few meters of overburden, which can vary ...
Bauxite can be found in a number of different physical forms including: pisolitic, friable and hardcap. Each bauxite will have its own distinctive crushing and milling characteristics.
