    摘要: Li-bearing slags are typically produced when Li-batteries or their waste are recycled on a smelter. The Li recovery process comprises the steps of:
    - powdering the metallurgical slag to a particle size distribution having a D50 of less than 100 µm;
    - contacting, in an aqueous medium, the Li-containing metallurgical slag, and an alkaline Ca-compound, provided in amounts selected to obtain a molar ratio of the Ca in the Ca-compound to Li in the slag of at least 0.75, thereby obtaining a suspension;
    - heating the suspension to a temperature of more than 80 °C for at least 30 min, thereby obtaining a leached suspension; and,
    - separating solids from liquids in the leached suspension, thereby obtaining a leach solution containing a major part of the Li, and a solid residue containing Ca.
    This alkaline leaching process allows for a straightforward recovery of battery-grade LiOH from the leach solution, while consuming less reagents than known acidic leaching processes.

    摘要: A method of recovering magnetite from bauxite residue, comprising reducing the pH of the bauxite residue to form a treated bauxite residue, drying the treated bauxite residue, adding to and mixing into the treated bauxite residue a solid source of carbon, to create a mixture, heating the mixture to a reduction temperature of at least 800° C. in a reducing reactor to produce a reduced bauxite residue in which a major portion of Fe2O3 present in the treated bauxite residue has been converted to Fe3O4, exposing the reduced bauxite residue to a particle separation step, and then separating the reduced bauxite residue into an iron-enriched portion and an iron-depleted portion.
