SEPPE BAUXITE
SCB85
▸ Cost-effective calcined bauxite for refractory, abrasive, and ceramic applications.
★ High Alumina (85% Min)
★ Refractoriness 1770℃+
▸ Shaft calcined bauxite is produced by calcining high-grade raw bauxite in a vertical shaft kiln at temperatures around 1500-1600°C. This process removes moisture and impurities, resulting in a dense, hard material with high alumina content. It is a cost-effective choice widely used as a refractory aggregate, abrasive media, and in ceramic formulations.
▸ The shaft kiln method offers distinct advantages for cost-sensitive refractory applications:
Cost-Effective Production — shaft kilns operate with lower energy consumption and higher throughput, making this grade an economical choice for standard refractory applications.
Reliable Performance — SEPPE's strict quality control ensures consistent calcination and stable chemistry, providing dependable service in medium-duty refractory linings.
Good Density — achieves bulk density ≥2.90 g/cm³, suitable for general purpose castables, backup linings, and abrasive media.
Wide Availability — produced in large volumes with stable supply, ideal for long-term bulk contracts.
▸ XRF Chemical Analysis — every batch tested for Al₂O₃, Fe₂O₃, TiO₂, CaO, MgO content
▸ Bulk Density Measurement — pycnometer method to verify ≥3.20 g/cm³
▸ Particle Size Distribution — laser diffraction and sieve analysis for accurate grading
▸ Magnetic Separation Inspection — removal of iron contamination to meet premium specifications
▸ Batch Traceability — full documentation from raw ore source to shipping container
On-site laboratory at SEPPE processing facility
▸ Stable Chemical Composition — consistent alumina and low impurity levels ensure predictable refractory performance.
▸ Good Bulk Density — dense grain structure provides adequate wear resistance in general purpose castables and bricks.

▸ It is primarily used in general purpose refractory bricks, castables, backup linings, and abrasive applications where a cost-effective solution is preferred.
▸ Shaft kiln bauxite offers a lower cost option with slightly lower density (≥2.90 g/cm³) and may have minor temperature gradients. Rotary kiln bauxite achieves higher density (≥3.10 g/cm³) and more uniform calcination. Choose shaft kiln for standard applications, rotary kiln for demanding environments.
▸ Yes. In addition to our standard 85% grade, we can supply 75%, 80%, 87%, and 88% Al₂O₃ material depending on your application requirements and volume.
▸ Standard sizes: 0-1mm, 1-3mm, 3-5mm, 5-8mm, 25-50mm. Custom sizing can be arranged upon request.
▸ Absolutely. With integrated mining and processing, we maintain stable inventory levels and can support annual supply contracts with consistent quality and on-time delivery.
