An isothermal calorimeter was used to characterize the hydration heat evolution. The results show that the hydration of RGC is controlled by the processes of nucleation and crystal growth（NG）, interaction at phase boundaries（I）, and diffusion（D） in order, and the pozzolanic reactions of slag and compound-activated red mud-coal gangue are mainly controlled by the I process. Slag accelerates the clinker hydration during NG process, whereas the compound-activated red mud-coal gangue retards the hydration of RGC and the time required for I process increases with increasing dosage of red mud-coal gangue in RGC.展开更多

In this research, the occur- rence mode of scandium in the Bayer red mud was investi- gated mainly by electron probe microanalysis （EPMA）. The Bayer red mud used in this work is composed of 21.47 wt% hematite, 12.13 wt% goethite, 8.86 wt% gibbsite, 5.02 wt% perovskite, 9.70 wt% quartz, 3.23 wt% anhydrite, 29.92 wt% Na_2Al_2Si_5O_14 and 9.67 wt% Al_3Fe_5O_12. Besides, the scandium content in the Bayer red mud is 84.32 × 10-6, indicating that this Bayer red mud is an important scandium resource deserving exploitation. The EPMA results show that the scandium within the Bayer red mud is mainly occurring in the iron minerals of hematite and goethite with the isomorphism form, but its distribution is not homogeneous in these iron minerals with the Sc_2O_3 content between 330 × 10-6 and 2040 × 10-6. This study provides a theoretical base for the further experimental work on the scandium extraction from this Bayer red mud.展开更多

Taking into account the rela- tively considerable content and availability of scandium, red mud can be viewed as an important and promising scandium resource rather than a solid waste. This paper is primarily to review the investigations of scandium recov- ery from red mud based on the most widely used hydrometallurgical processes including acid leaching, sol- vent extraction and ion exchange adsorption. It is thought that recovery of scandium from red mud should be con- sidered as a direct objective rather than a by-product in the development of overall flowsheet. In order to achieve environmentally-friendly processes with high scandium recovery and low cost, more attention is required to be paid to optimizing the selective leaching of scandium to decrease mineral acid consumption and alleviate pollution, and developing new solvent extraction systems and novel ion exchange adsorption materials with high selectivity and recognition for scandium.展开更多
