Bauxite is used to produce alumina, which is then used to produce aluminum. Wastes can be generated at several points in the production process, including during the mining of the bauxite ore, and during the refinery production process. The refinery processes used to produce aluminum generates about 2 – 2.5 tons of solid waste for every 1 ton ...

Bauxite occurs mainly in the tropics and in some Mediterranean countries. Today, the main mining locations are in Latin America, Australia, India, and Africa. Bauxite is a weathered rock containing two forms of hydrated aluminum oxide, either mostly a monohydrate AlO(OH) in caustic bauxite, or mostly a trihydrate Al(OH) 3 in lateric bauxite.
