More Information
Summary:An apparatus and a method for purifying a Bayer process stream that includes a FILTER stage comprising at least one filter configured to filter particulate matter from at least one ionic liquid stream from EXTRACT, STRIP, and REGEN stages. Filtering particulate matter from the at least one the ionic liquid streams reduces the amounts of circulating particulate matter and reduces the potential for crud formation.
