Bauxite residue is a by-product of the Bayer Process. It is primarily composed of the insoluble fraction of the bauxite ore that remains after extraction of the aluminium-containing components. Iron oxides (10 - 30%), titanium dioxide (2 - 15%), silicon oxide (5 - 20%) and undissolved alumina (0 - 20%) make up the residue, together with ...
