The alumina industry produces a significant quantity of bauxite residue suspension (red mud) that must be washed and dewatered in trains of thickeners and residue disposal areas to recover valuable alumina and sodium hydroxide.

The project aims to maximise thickener underflow and tailings dam solids concentrations. (For complete abstract open document)
