Aluminium Oxide Abrasive Grit: Alundum by Jacobs's Process (Stansfield, 1914)

Alundum, the artificial corundum made at Niagara Falls by the Norton Company: bauxite, calcined to drive off its water, is fused in an electric arc furnace with about 5 per cent carbon, which reduces its iron, silicon and titanium to metal nodules; the fused alumina cools slowly into a hard crystalline mass that is crushed and sized as abrasive grit. Bauxite melts near 2,000 °C and could not be melted commercially without the electric furnace. Source: A. Stansfield, The Electric Furnace, 2nd ed. (1914), pp. 357-358. Picture: the book's Fig. 143, the Higgins alundum furnace.

Mga Tagubilin

1

Calcine the bauxite

Calcine the bauxite in a rotary kiln to drive off its combined water.

2

Fuse in the arc furnace

Strike arcs between the electrodes and the carbon lining of the furnace bottom, then feed the calcined bauxite, with about 5 per cent carbon, in round the arcs; it melts and in time carries the current between the two arcs. Lower the water-cooled shell as the fused alundum builds up; the lower part solidifies as it fills.

3

Cool slowly

When the shell is full, lift it with its contents off the base, put another shell in place, and let the alundum cool slowly so it grows into a hard, tough crystalline mass.

Crush, separate and size

Break up and crush the mass, separate the nodules of reduced metal mechanically, and size the grains for use as an abrasive.
