03 October 2025 - Come & Meet Altek At The IBAAS Conference & Exhibition

Next week sees the IBAAS conference and exhibition taking place on 8th to 10th October 2025 being in Bhubaneswar, India. Altek will be in attendance and we look forward to meeting new and existing industry contacts and partners at the event. The Bauxite, alumina and aluminium industry is developing at a fairly good pace in the world and spectacular growth is visible in China, India, Guinea and Brazil. Several other countries like Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia are proposing to invest huge amounts into development of the vast resources of Bauxite.

While the downstream industry is facing the challenge of technology upgradation and high investment costs, the upstream industry is constantly under the threat of ever-changing regulatory laws with respect to mining, social development and technology, besides the need for a huge investment in infrastructure for the mining, refining and smelting operations. The world is now pushing for a low-carbon future. The global aluminium industry, from bauxite mine to aluminium ingot, has a challenge to reduce the CO₂ emissions and the greenhouse effect. The emissions are increasing because of the growing demand for aluminium and the limited supply of electrical energy generated from renewables.

It is strongly felt that an organisation is specifically needed to focus on these issues and work in the field of bauxite geology, mining, beneficiation, alumina refining and aluminium smelting technology particularly in the Asian region. A group of leading scientists, engineers, managers and experts in this line have set up a registered society IBAAS to promote this industry in this part of the world.

This society will also provide a platform to a number of non-metallurgical value-added bauxite and alumina producers of the world. Apart from large primary metal producers, Asia is becoming the biggest hub for small scale industries, producing value added bauxite, alumina and aluminium products. This International society will address various technical and other issues being faced by a large number of primary & secondary aluminium manufacturers and also a group of non-metallurgical bauxite / alumina producers of the world.
