Studies performed in the Bayer process residue, red mud, for recycling this material has been intensified by their physicochemical characteristics. The residue has several oxides, these stands out the iron oxide content above 30% by weight and titanium oxide at concentrations above 5% by weight. This work studies the possibility of extracting iron oxide, aiming at concentration of titanium compounds. The extraction was carried through process of calcination of red mud at 900°C followed by acid leaching with concentration of H2SO4 at 20% and 30% by volume at 60°C, 80°C and 90°C, with removal of an aliquot every 30 minutes. During the leaching process, there was intense extraction of iron compounds, resulting in an increased concentration of titanium at the red mud. This was found in all experiments, especially those which were performed at 90°C and H2SO4 at 30% v/v, where was a extraction of 95% iron and concentration of up to 14% titanium considering the global mass balance. From the data obtained, the red mud becomes an interesting material to be used as an alternative source of minerals titanium, which are found in nature with a percentage of around 8%.

Influência da temperatura de calcinação na redução da hematita e na liberação do titânio na lama vermelha (resíduo do processo bayer)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2016-12-26) VIEGAS, Bruno Marques; MAGALHÃES, Edilson Marques; CV: http://lattes.cnpq.br/1570353513360972; MACÊDO, Emanuel Negrão; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8718370108324505
In this work a technological route was proposed aiming at the reduction of hematite to magnetite and the release of titanium present in red mud from Hydro Alunorte. The fluorescence and x ray diffraction analysis showed that the red mud presents in their composition approximately 5% of titanium oxide as anatase and 28% of iron oxide in the forms of hematite and goethite. Therefore, the proposed route will enable the obtainment of a material with magnetic characteristics which can be used as source of titanium after extraction of iron compounds in magnetic form. So, the reduction of the hematite to the magnetite was carried out by thermal treatment in a reducing atmosphere. To accomplish this, mixtures were made in different concentrations of red mud and charcoal. These mixtures were calcined at temperatures of 500, 600 and 1000 ° C for two hours. Then, X ray diffraction analysis were performed, which showed that the hematite was reduced to magnetite in all experimental conditions and, for the mixtures calcined at 1000 ° C, besides the formation of the magnetite, there was also the formation of maghemite. Through analysis of Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, it was verified that for calcination temperatures of 500 to 600° C titanium remained in the free form of anatase, but for the calcination carried out at 1000° C this passed to the combined form with iron (ilmenite). The technological route allowed the formation of magnetite from the red mud, which can be extracted with the use of a magnetic separator.
