Abstract
Sharp selectivity of hydrocarboaluminates of caustic-earth metals and magnesium oxide in relation to the most dangerous classes of the organic substances playing defining role in decrease in extent of decomposition level and deterioration of produced alumina properties– humic, carboxylic acids and high-molecular organic compounds are defined. Soda is good for humic acids sorption (about 40 %) also is inefficient for removal of carboxylic acids and high-molecular compounds. Harmful groups of organic substances generally provide chromaticity of aluminate liquors. The photometric analysis states an objective assessment of the content of the painted organic substances in relation to their initial quantity in aluminates liquors.
