The technology: In a cryolite-alumina prebaked pot, the quality of carbon anodes has a direct influence on the production index of aluminium reduction. When the carbon anode fails to meet the quality requirement, it will generate abundant carbon residues in the bath, bringing a series of hazards to the pot. To reduce carbon residues, high-quality […]
The aluminium industry faces unique challenges, with equipment breakdowns causing financial losses and significant downtime. Traditional maintenance approaches, such as corrective and preventive maintenance, have limitations in efficiency and reducing downtime. The advent of digital twins technology and predictive maintenance strategies presents a game-changing solution for the sector. The aluminium industry has already seen major […]

Russia plays a crucial role in the international market as one of the world’s leading aluminium producers. The Russian aluminium export value amounted to US$4.4 billion in 2021, experiencing a growth to US$4.9 billion in 2022. Having originated in the Soviet era, the sector witnessed significant transformations during the post-Soviet era, marked by privatisation, market-oriented […]
Since the 1980s, the aluminium industry in China has made significant progress in two aspects. One is the annual output of primary aluminium, which has continuously risen from roughly 400,000 tons in 1983 to 40.21 million tons in 2022, accounting for 58.8% of the total annual global output. Another aspect is the average total energy […]
Aluminium extrusion stands out as a crucial process in creating intricate industrial structures and products. In the downstream aluminium segment, extrusions are used to make a myriad of useful applications for various end-user sectors. At the heart of this transformative method lies equipment specifically designed to turn solid aluminium billets into complex tailored profiles or […]
Material handling plays a pivotal role in the alumina refining process. Efficient material handling allows for streamlined refinery operations, ensuring that the raw material (bauxite), work-in-progress goods and the finished product (refined alumina) can be transferred smoothly across the production line. The systems are designed in such a way that they can handle a wide […]
On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine, further escalating the war that first started back in 2014. Forces entered the country from Belarus, Russia, and Crimea in what is considered the biggest, fiercest, and most destructive unprovoked attack on a European country since World War II. A significant shock to […]
Bauxite, the primary source of aluminium, is extracted from the earth’s crust through a process that has been significantly refined over the years. The backbone of this extraction lies in the sophisticated heavy machinery employed. A fusion of engineering prowess and the latest breakthroughs in Industry 4.0 automation leads to a better yield from the […]
