High purity alumina synthesised from iron rich clay
Furthermore, since alumina synthesis has been reported from low-iron kaolin sources, there is limited information on iron control and alumina synthesis from an iron-rich kaolin. This study aims to develop a pathway for producing high purity alumina from a Fe-rich (19% Fe 2 O 3) kaolin via an innovative alum-HCl hybrid process. This work ...

Production of γ-Al2O3 from Kaolin
Kaolin was transformed to meta-kaolin by calcination at 800 ̊C for 2h. γ-alumina powder was synthesized through extracting alumina from meta- kaolin via H2SO4 and meta-kaolin reactions and consequently precipitation in ethanol, which led to form the aluminum sulfate. The precipitated aluminum sulfate was dried and calcined at 900 ̊C for 2h ...
