Abstract
It has been ascertained from theoretical premises and commercial practice that sodium aluminate may be produced using alumina-bearing industrial intermediates and wastes, including spent potliner and salt cake resulting from aluminum-dross recycling. The utilization of these unused waste materials can provide a supply for the world’s demand for sodium aluminate and improve environmental conditions.
