Key Data Set Information
Location CN
Reference year 2018
Name
Alumina production ; Alumina for metallurgy ; Aluminum alloy wheel manufacturing process
Use advice for data set Users of this data set should note that the alumina produced is of metallurgical quality and should only be considered for applications requiring such specifications. The inclusion of recycling in the life cycle assessment of aluminum alloy wheels should be accounted for, as recycling can significantly affect the environmental impact results. Furthermore, modeling of the use phase behavior must reflect the actual conditions under which the aluminum wheels operate, including factors such as mileage, wear and tear, and potential refurbishment processes.
Technical purpose of product or process The alumina produced in this process is specifically intended for use in metallurgy, particularly in the manufacturing of aluminum alloy wheels. This metallurgical-grade alumina is tailored to meet the rigorous specifications required for the production of high-quality, durable aluminum alloy wheels that are suitable for use in the automotive industry.
