Abstract
The filterability of aluminum salts precipitated from an aqueous solution containing dissolved aluminum ion is improved by adjusting the pH of the solution to between about 4 and 6, adding less than a stoichiometric amount of a 1, 3-dicarbonyl compound such as acetylacetone to the solution to precipitate the aluminum dicarbonyl and then adding a sufficient amount of an alkaline hydroxide to precipitate the remaining dissolved aluminum ion in the form of aluminum hydroxide to obtain a mixed precipitate which can be readily filtered.
