Abstract
Abstract Crystallization of Al(OH) 3 that occurs during the decomposition of caustic soda solutions is an important part of Bayer process for alumina production. Several phenomena, which influence the physicochemical characteristics of precipitated Al(OH) 3 , occur simultaneously during this process. They are nucleation, agglomeration, and crystal growth of Al(OH) 3 . In this article, we have investigated the mechanism of Al(OH) 3 crystal growth from pure caustic soda solutions and in the presence of oxalic acid. The results have shown that the growth of Al(OH) 3 crystals from caustic soda solutions follow the B + S model ( birth and spread ). New Al(OH) 3 particles, formed during the decomposition process of pure caustic soda solutions, are characterized by regular hexagonal shape. The nuclei have the same geometry as the contact face. However, microstructural investigations of Al(OH) 3 samples, obtained by crystallization from caustic soda solutions in the presence of oxalic acid, have shown the presence of nuclei of irregular shape in addition to regular ones. So, the presence of oxalic acid in the caustic soda solutions leads to a change in crystal habit. Besides, the results obtained by kinetic investigation confirmed the mentioned mechanism of Al(OH) 3 crystal growth.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
