Information  at a Glance Contents on the CD ROM
  • The production of aluminium requires three stages—the mining of bauxite ore,
    which is refined to recover alumina, which is then smelted to make aluminium
  • Alumina is produced from bauxite. About one tonne of alumina is produced from three tonnes of bauxite and about one tonne of aluminium is produced from two tonnes of alumina
  • The chemical composition of CFA is similar to bauxite ore
  • Coal Fly Ash ( CFA) contains significant amounts of alumina typically, 26-31%, in two dissimilar phases, namely amorphous and crystalline mullite, which may be processed separately.
  • Due to its high silica content, however, CFA cannot be treated through the Bayer process route. Therefore, a leach-sinter-leach process was formulated that employed a two-step acid leach technique to extract alumina from CFA using sulphuric acid.
  • CFA disposal has increasingly become an environmental concern. Most of the CFA produced from the power plants is being disposed of in controlled landfills or waste containment facilities
  • The potential of developing other alternative sources of alumina such as Coal Fly Ash would provide a significant source of raw material for the local smelters. This would cut down on alumina import costs and has the potential to unlock large tonnage of previously unavailable raw material.
  • Hight Purity Alumina (HPA) Market size is booming and is likely to generate revenue of more than USD 6 billion and henceforth projecting a CAGR of over 17% by 2024.
  • Exports of alumina increased to 15.62 lakh
    tonnes in 2014-15 from 12.94 lakh tonnes in the previous year. Exports in 2014-15 were mainly to China (41%), UAE (39%), Iran (8%) Egypt (6%) and Bahrain (4%).
  • Imports of alumina decreased considerably to
    7.90 lakh tonnes in 2014-15 from 11.69 lakh tonnes in the previous year. Imports were mainly from Australia (86%), China (7%) and Netherlands (4%).
  • The average price free alongside ship (f.a.s.) for U.S. imports for consumption of metallurgical-grade alumina during the first 8 months of 2017 was $456 per ton, 34% higher than that of the same period in 2016, and ranged between $395 per ton and $576 per ton. World alumina production through October 2017 increased by 13% compared withthat of the same period in 2016.
  • Approximately 94% of the alumina market is used in metallurgical applications. The remainder, around 5.5m tonnes in 2012, is used in non-metallurgical markets
  • Alumina medium term supply/demand and cost issues:
    – healthy world demand growth and balanced supply/demand outlook
    – cost push in medium term China, due to higher imported bauxite costs and Government environmental measures
