Description

The alumina produced via the sintering method is intended for use in metallurgical processes, specifically in the production of aluminum metal through electrolysis. This high-quality alumina is suitable for use in smelting and refining industries where aluminum ore is processed. Users of this data should consider the specific requirements of the aluminum manufacturing process when applying this LCA data. It is important to take into account the parameters of the sintering process as well as the emissions and energy consumption involved. Additionally, users should also adhere to any relevant industry standards, specifications, and system boundaries as indicated in the relevant yearbooks or publications specified for the life cycle stages of this process.
