Abstract

The article is devoted to the influence of brown coal additives on the sintering of the lime-nepheline charge in the technology of alumina production from nepheline. It is shown that carbon-containing materials added to the limestone-nepheline charge intensify sintering, and thus, contribute to a more uniform heat distribution along the furnace, improve the passage of the sintered material in the chain curtains, accelerate interaction of the charge components and increase recovery of alumina from the sintered mass. The mechanism of influence of coal during its combustion on the passage of solid-phase reactions in the charge is studied. Fossil brown coals with a high content of volatile substances and carbon graphite materials were used as coal additives.
