How does leaching of aluminium ore take place by Serpeck's process?

Serpeck's Process: This process is applied to the bauxite ore containing Silica (White bauxite SiO₂) as major impurity.

 NOTE:Silicone Volatile at this temperature and removed easily.

How does leaching of aluminium ore take place by Hall's process?

Hall's Process: This process is also applied to the bauxite ore containing ferric oxide (red bauxite Fe₂O₃) as major impurity. This process ore is fused with Na₂CO₃.

How does leaching of aluminium ore take place by Baeyer' process?

Baeyer's Process: By Bayer's process commercially it is being carried out (for red bauxite) In other words this process is applied to the bauxite ore containing ferric oxide (red bauxite Fe₂O₃) as chief impurity. Ore roasted to convert ferrous oxide to ferric oxide.
