From orthome-thod experiment, the optimized operating parameters of treatment under 33 kHz ultrasonic cleaner have obtained. Compared with crystallization of AI(OH)3 without treatment of ultrasound, the precipitation time is reduced by 15 h when the precipitation ratio is 45%. From the results of grain size distribution and SEM photographs of gibbsite, it is found that secondary nucleation and agglomeration could be enhanced under 33 kHz ultrasound. The products are same from comparison of X-ray powder diffraction, but the Raman spectrum of sodium aluminate solution under 33 kHz ultrasound is different from that without ultrasound.展开更多
