Verfahren zur Herstellung reiner Tonerde aus Aluminiumnitrid.
Es ist bekannt, dass man durch Behandlung von Bauxit mit einer Lauge eines alkalischen Aluminates, Ammoniak und Tonerde erhält. Es wurde nun gefunden, dass diese Reaktion zur Herstellung reiner Tonerde verwendet werden kann, wenn man den Bauxit durch Aluminiumnitrid ersetzt. Der Vorteil besteht darin, dass bei Verwendung von Aluminiumnitrid als Ausgangsmaterial die Lauge in wesentlich schwächerer Konzentration verwendet werden kann und dass die Durchführung des Verfahrens bei beträchtlich niedrigerem Drucke möglich ist.
Bei dem Bayerschen Verfahren nämlich, wie es allgemein ausgeführt wird, lässt man auf den Bauxit eine etwa 40"Be starke Lange von Natriumaluminat wirken, in welcher das molekulare Verhältnis von Natron zu Tonerde (Na. 0 : A 12 03) 5 : 6 und die Temperatur 1500 beträgt, entsprechend einem Druck von 6 bis 8 Atmosphären. Arbeitet man dagegen mit Nitrid, so kann man dieses durch Kochen unter schwachem Druck mit einer Lauge von 20 bis 210 Bé angreifen, also mit einer solchen, wie sie gewöhnlich beim Austritt aus den Zersetzern im Bayerschen Verfahren vorliegt.
Es ist demnach überflüssig, die Laugen zum Zwecke neuerlicher Verwendung zu konzentrieren, welcher Umstand für den wirtschaftlichen Betrieb von wesentlichem Einfluss ist. Ms ergibt sich vielmehr die Notwendigkeit, die Lauge vor der Selbstzersetzung auf 2Öo Bé zu verdünnen, wodurch das Verfahren wesentlich vereinfacht wird.
Auch bezüglich der Abscheidung von Verunreinigungen, die im Ausgangsmaterial enthalten sein können, zeigt das Verfahren wesentliche Vorteile.
Das Silizium ist in der schwachen Lauge unlöslich und kann daher die Lauge immer wlpdpr verwendet werden. Das unreine Nitrid enthält das Eisen des Bauxits in reduziertem Zustande, a) so in vollkommen unlöslicher Form, so dass diese Verunreinigung einen schweren Ruckstand bildet, der sich von der Lauge durch einfaches Absetzen trennen lässt.
Das Verfahren bietet also eine ganze Reihe wirtschaftlicher Vorteile für die Herstellung reiner Tonerde..

Process for the production of pure alumina from aluminum nitride.
It is known that treatment of bauxite with a lye of an alkaline aluminate, ammonia and alumina is obtained. It has now been found that this reaction can be used to produce pure alumina by replacing the bauxite with aluminum nitride. The advantage is that when aluminum nitride is used as the starting material, the alkali can be used in a significantly lower concentration and that the method can be carried out at considerably lower pressures.
In Bayer's process, as it is generally stated, sodium aluminate is allowed to act on the bauxite in a length of about 40 "Be, in which the molecular ratio of soda to clay (Na. 0: A 12 03) 5: 6 and the temperature is 1500, corresponding to a pressure of 6 to 8 atmospheres, but if you work with nitride, you can attack it by boiling it under low pressure with an alkali of 20 to 210 Be, that is, with the type of liquor that is usually released when it escapes the decomposers in the Bayer process.
It is therefore superfluous to concentrate the liquors for the purpose of re-use, which is a significant factor for economic operation. Rather, there is a need to dilute the lye to 2Öo Bé before self-decomposition, which considerably simplifies the process.
The process also shows significant advantages with regard to the separation of impurities that may be contained in the starting material.
The silicon is insoluble in the weak alkali and can therefore always be used wlpdpr the alkali. The impure nitride contains the iron of bauxite in a reduced state, a) so in completely insoluble form, so that this impurity forms a heavy residue which can be separated from the lye by simply settling it.
The process therefore offers a whole range of economic advantages for the production of pure alumina.
