Industrial Aluminium Oxide procurement is greatly affected by the cost, supply, and availability of raw materials, including bauxite. Geopolitical instability in the regions that produce bauxite or
123;The Bayer process is a chemical process for refining aluminium hydroxide, Al(OH) 3 from bauxite; this aluminium hydroxide is subsequently calcined to produce alumina,
Mined bauxite ore is refined into alumina through what is known as the Bayer process. The process, discovered in 1887, extracts alumina from bauxite through crushing, dissolving it in caustic soda, filtration and an electrolytic process.
As water is a key input for refining bauxite into alumina, Australian alumina refineries are located in areas with reliable water supply. The Bayer refining process used by alumina refineries
