Summary: | The present invention provides a process for desilication of aluminate solutions which comprises treatment of the aluminate solution first with a calsium-contain-ing reagent "a" which is a product of the reaction of desilication of the aluminate solution; reagent "a" contains mainly calcium hydrogarnet of the formula: 3CaO.A12O3.nSiO2(6-2n)H2O wherein n A? 1, and then with a reagent "b" of the formula: 4CaO.A12O3(0.1-0.6)X.mH2O wherein X is CO2 and/or SO3; m = 8 to 15. The treatment of the aluminate solution with reagent "a" is carried out for 0.5 to 2 hours at a temperature ranging from 40 to 105.degree.C. Weight ratio of reagents "a" and "b" is maintained within the range of from 1:1 to 3:1. The process according to the present invention is useful in the manufacture of alumina. |
