Aluminum industry is one of the most important industries in China’s nonferrous metallurgy industry. With the development of China’s alumina output, red mud emission get 50 million ton at 2011. Under this condition, “Calcification-Carbonation Method” was put forward to deal with red mud by Northeastern University, the main purpose of this method is to change the balance phase of red mud into 2CaO·SiO2 and CaCO3 with hydrometallurgical process. This paper mainly research on the effect of carbonation conditions and steps on alumina extraction and dealkalize efficiency. The results indicate that: through multi-steps carbonation treatment of calcified slag by the new method, A/S of the new structure red mud lowed below to 0.24 and the Na2O content lowed below to 0.26% at carbonation temperature 120°C, CO2 pressure of 1.2MPa with 5-steps carbonation treatment. The new structure red mud could be used in cement industry directly.
