ABSTRACT:
The invention purpose is a process to obtain gel to elaborate Zeolite 4A, to be used in detergents due to its capacity for calcium absortion; the process lies on the obtention of an alkaline aluminum solution starting from bauxite provided by tank 3 which is attacked in digestor 1 with sodium hydroxide provided by tank 4, with a concentration of 11% minimum, with a filtration of the reacting mass and a purification 13 before the gel formation step in whose reactor 14 is also introduced an alkaline solution of SiO2 to obtain by agitation and temperature a gel which is treated in a crystallizer 15, cooling and concentrating the crystalline mass in 16, filtered in 17, and passed to a dryer 20 from where the product Zeolite 4A passes to storage 21. Bauxite residues are attacked with boiling sulphuric acid in reactor 9, filtering the resulting mass in 11 to recycle the silica and to recover the metal sulphates in solution for using them in water treatments.
