The Bayer Process, which is used by about 80 active plants worldwide, is the primary method of producing aluminum from bauxite. Bauxite ore is dissolved in sodium hydroxide, or lye, at a high temperature and pressure. Then, the alumina and bauxite ores are separated by washing out the waste (red muds or sands) from the alumina.
Also shown on Fig. 1.1 is that Bayer plants have some type of steam generation plant to supply the needed heat for the process. Often this is a cogeneration steam powerhouse, where high pressure steam is used to run turbines generating electricity for the processing plant and lower pressure steam out of the turbines is used for heating in the process.
