Bauxite is primarily used as the raw material for the production of aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃) and therefore forms the basis of global aluminium production. 🏭 What is less well known, however, is that bauxite offers further potential beyond aluminium oxide production. Under suitable conditions, valuable accompanying elements and raw materials, such as rare earth elements, can also be recovered during the processing of bauxite residue. Their economic recovery is closely linked to aluminium oxide p...

Methane can play a versatile role in Power-to-Gas systems. But what is actually behind it? Renewable electricity is used to produce methane as a chemical energy carrier. The originally electrical energy is used to produce methane and can therefore be stored in the form of chemical energy. Methane thus acts as a storage medium and enables the flexible use over time of the previously generated renewable energy. 🌱 The decisive advantage: Methane can connect different energy sectors, from electr...

In the third of four videos in our Bauxite series, we take a closer look at the next stage of the value chain: What happens to the alumina extracted from bauxite, and how is it converted into aluminium? 🤔 Aluminium is one of the most important metals in modern industry. It is lightweight, highly formable, corrosion-resistant, and can be recycled through multiple material cycles. However, its production is highly energy-intensive and presents the industry with significant technological and env...

Aluminium Production – How Aluminium Is Made, Used and Recycled

Website: https://ermafa.at/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/72308863/admin/dashboard/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ermafa.at/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ErmafaEnvironmentalTechnologies Xing: https://www.xing.com/pages/ermafa-environmental-technologies In this video, we explore aluminium production, one of the most important industrial processes behind the lightweight metal used throughout our modern world. As the third part of our Bauxite series, we follow aluminium from its properties and natural occurrence to its production, industrial applications, environmental impact, and recycling. What you will learn in this video: 🔺 How aluminium is produced from aluminium oxide using the Hall-Héroult process 🔺 Why aluminium production is highly energy-intensive and how much energy and CO₂ emissions are involved 🔺 Where aluminium is used in everyday products, electronics, transportation, and aerospace 🔺 Why aluminium is abundant in the Earth's crust but is mainly extracted from bauxite 🔺 How the increasing use of aluminium in mobility can reduce weight and energy consumption 🔺 Why recycling is one of aluminium's greatest advantages and how the metal can be recycled again and again Aluminium plays a key role in modern industry because it combines low weight, good machinability, corrosion resistance, and recyclability. At the same time, its primary production requires significant amounts of energy, making more efficient production methods, renewable electricity, and advanced recycling technologies increasingly important. At Ermafa Environmental Technologies, we are researching innovative ways to keep industrial residues and by-products in the material cycle for as long as possible. Our goal is to find new applications for these materials, turning what would otherwise be considered waste into useful and valuable products. By developing solutions that allow resources to remain in the cycle, we aim to reduce waste, conserve raw materials, and contribute to a more sustainable circular economy. In this way, we help close material cycles and keep valuable resources in use for longer. Ermafa Environmental Technologies – Sustainable Solutions for a Blue Planet 🌱💚youtube.com

Ermafa Environmental Technologies at IFAT in Munich 2026 | Ermafa Environmental Technologies

At the beginning of May, we participated together with our sister companies at IFAT in Munich and presented our joint exhibition stand. ♻️ Wolfgang Kapaun, Project Lead at REDREC, was available to visitors at the trade fair as the contact person for our Bauxite Residue recycling project. We sincerely thank him for representing our project so excellently at the exhibition. 🤝 The significance of Bauxite Residue become apparent through the sheer size of the problem on a global scale. With a global alumina production of around 154 million tonnes in 2025, approximately 150 to 300 million tonnes of red mud are generated as a by-product. 📊 This residual material from aluminium production is still often regarded as waste, although we at Ermafa Environmental Technologies see it as a valuable material with new industrial and ecological utilization potential. For this very reason, Wolfgang is so important as the lead of this project. He has not only recognized this enormous potential but is actively working to further develop it. In the video, Wolfgang explains how Bauxite Residue can be separated into an iron-rich fraction and a depleted fraction, and what utilization possibilities arise from this. The iron-rich fraction can be used in the steel industry for iron production. The depleted fraction offers potential as an additive in concrete, for brick materials, as well as an adsorption material in gas cleaning. Our prototype system is currently in the implementation phase: partner structure and planning are completed, and validation in a real industrial environment will follow. More about the current implementation phase can be found in the video. 🌱 . . . #Ermafa #EnvironmentalTechnologies #RedMud #RedMudRecycling #Sustainability #IFAT2026 #BauxiteResidue Scientific source: https://lnkd.in/d2D7z_8mwww.linkedin.com
