SUMMARY:HILT CRC Public Webinar: Decarbonising alumina – AlumiNEXT™ and future pathways
DESCRIPTION:Join HILT CRC for a webinar on alumina decarbonisation\, featuring an update on RP1.013 Alumina refineries’ next-generation transition (AlumiNEXT™) Project and a broader discussion of the technologies\, integration challenges and industry priorities shaping the transition to low-carbon alumina.\nAlumiNEXT™ is focused on two major emissions-reduction pathways for alumina refining: achieving low- or zero-emissions steam generation and recovery within the Bayer Process\, and decarbonising calcination through hydrogen\, electrification and other low-carbon heat options. \nA/Prof. Woei Saw (Adelaide University)\, AlumiNEXT™ research leader\, will present a project update\, including recent progress across reactor design\, modelling\, steam recovery\, calcination studies and industry-led integration priorities. Prof. Gus Nathan (Adelaide University and HILT CRC Research Director) will provide a technical perspective on the current status and future of alumina decarbonisation\, considering how emerging technologies can be combined into practical refinery transition pathways. \nFrom an industry perspective\, Emilio Pai (Emirates Global Aluminium) will discuss EGA’s activities and priorities as a producer and user of alumina\, and Marghanita Johnson (CEO\, Australian Aluminium Council) will provide a broader view of the sector’s decarbonisation challenges and opportunities. \nThe session will explore what is technically promising\, what still needs to be de-risked\, and how industry\, researchers and technology providers can work together to bridge the gap to low-carbon alumina processing.
