Adsorption kinetics of zeolites were examined using a well-established batch system and compared to a fixed-bed column recirculation system, a configuration for which only limited investigations exist. Zeolite was chosen as the adsorbent due to its efficiency, affordability, availability, and eco-friendliness. The recirculation system was designed for comparative analysis with the batch system, assessing adsorption kinetics, reaction rate constants, and orders under various initial copper concentrations (100, 300, and 500 mg dm<sup>−3</sup>). Zeolite particles (2–3 mm) were used in the recirculation system, while finer particles (63 µm) were employed in the batch system. Experimental conditions, such as adsorbent dosage and initial pH, were kept constant to ensure the comparability of the two systems. Copper concentrations in the filtrate were measured using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). Three experimental kinetic models were developed to describe the adsorption processes. The results indicate that the adsorption processes correlate best with Ho’s pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic model. Results revealed superior removal efficiency (9.77 mg g<sup>−1</sup>) with the recirculation system using coarser particles compared to the batch system (7.82 mg g<sup>−1</sup>) with finer particles, highlighting enhanced adsorption driving forces in the recirculation configuration.

In a previous study, we developed a pneumatic dry low-intensity drum magnetic separator (PDLDMS) and investigated its performance in the recovery of fine-grained magnetite. In this study, we extended the study of this PDLDMS by employing a validated multi-physical field coupling model to investigate the separation efficiency of mineral particles on each magnetic pole, and we optimized the magnetic field strengths within each area. The simulation results indicated that a large number of coarse-grained low-grade particles and fine-grained high-grade particles were captured in the same area (A5, A6, A7, and A8) on the surface of the separation drum, displaying equal recoverability. The coarse-grained low-grade particles in areas A5, A6, and A7 were preferentially captured in the more anterior position on the surface of the drum compared with the fine-grained high-grade mineral particles in areas A6, A7, and A8. When the drum rotated, a layered wrapping of coarse-grained low-grade intergrowth particles was formed. The equal recoverability and layered wrapping were the main reasons for the low grade of the concentrate and the difficulty of improving the separation efficiency. When the remanent magnetism values of magnetic poles N1, S1, N2, S2, N3, S3, N4, and S4 were 0.3, 0.3, 0.5, 0.3, 0.3, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 T, respectively, it was possible to reduce the recovery of low-grade intergrowth particles while ensuring the recovery of high-grade mineral particles. The experimental results revealed that after optimizing the magnetic field strengths, the grade of the concentrate in the area corresponding to each magnetic pole was significantly higher than that before optimization.

This study proposes an innovative method combining sodium nitrate activation roasting with low-alkali leaching to enhance alumina extraction. Activation roasting at moderate to high temperatures significantly improves bauxite solubility, and subsequent leaching with a low-concentration caustic soda solution (N<sub>k</sub> = 160 g/L) enhances alumina dissolution. XRD analysis reveals that sodium nitrate promotes phase transformations, converting diaspore and kaolinite into Na<sub>2-x</sub>Al<sub>2-x</sub>Si<sub>x</sub>O<sub>4</sub> at 700–1000 °C. Increasing the roasting temperature within the 700–1000 °C range lower the x value in Na<sub>2-x</sub>Al<sub>2-x</sub>Si<sub>x</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, but also inhibits its decomposition of Na<sub>2-x</sub>Al<sub>2-x</sub>Si<sub>x</sub>O<sub>4</sub> into NaAlO<sub>2</sub> and Na<sub>2</sub>SiO<sub>3</sub>.

Through systematic optimization, we determined the ideal conditions: roasting at 750 °C for 2 h, followed by leaching at 270 °C for 60 min with a solid–liquid ratio of 300 g/L. This optimized process achieved an exceptional alumina leaching rate exceeding 75 % from bauxite with an initial alumina-to-silica ratio (A/S) ratio of 3.57, while maintaining silica dissolution at a minimal 0.59 %. The resulting red mud had an A/S ratio of 0.88, significantly lower than that of the Bayer process.

In this work, the use of flat ceramic membranes to separate REEt from aqueous solution is innovatively proposed. Firstly, the performance of REEt separation by flat ceramic membrane process was determined. It was found that the flat ceramic membrane process had good interception performance for REEt separation, and the concentration of rare earth ions in the supernatant was close to 0 ppm. Then, the impacts of different operating conditions (including operating time, backwash duration and concentration times) on the membrane fouling process were investigated. It was demonstrated that the shorter the operating time, the less the degree of membrane fouling. The operation of back washing was greatly beneficial to renew membrane flow. The change of reversible pollution resistance was calculated, the process of membrane pollution was analyzed by four pollution models, and the pollution mechanism was discussed in detail. Furthermore, the recovery of membrane flow after chemical cleaning and non-agent cleaning, and the changes in reversible fouling resistance under different concentration multiples were also studied.
