Résumé : |
Boehmite dissolution experiments were conducted at NaOH concentrations of 10 and 12 M to determine whether the increased aluminum solubility at high hydroxide concentration would offset the increase in added sodium, causing a decrease in the amount of sodium added during boehmite dissolution. A shrinking-core dissolution rate model with a reversible reaction was fitted to the test data. The resulting model included the effects of temperature, hydroxide concentration, and dissolved aluminum concentration. The rate was found to depend on the ~1.5 power of hydroxide molarity. When the rate model was used to simulate batch boehmite dissolution, a concentration range of 7-9 M NaOH was found to minimize the mass of sodium needed to dissolve a given mass of aluminum, potentially reducing it by as much as two-thirds. The time required to dissolve the boehmite could be decreased by using hydroxide concentrations greater than ~10 M. |
