The title of the IBAAS – 2013 symposium is "Present Status and Future Prospects of Bauxite- Alumina-Aluminium Industry of the World, with Special Reference to China”. The symposium organizing committee is formulating a world class program focusing on key topics and issues in the bauxite, alumina and aluminium industry of the world highlighting the developments in China.

The latest Information Circular with more details of the conference can be downloaded here.

The aluminium industry structure is rapidly changing and production centers are shifting to developing, high growth potential countries of the world. Keeping in view and the increasing role of China in production of all types of bauxite, alumina & aluminium, second IBAAS event is being organized in that country. In the present depressed market, it is necessary to diversify production to value added products and in this connection technology and applications / uses of non-metallurgical Bauxite, Alumina and value added products of Aluminium will be given special attention in this conference.

Taking all these facts into account, the Symposium has been planned with the following objectives:

• To review the promising research and development activities aimed at improving production and productivity in the existing bauxite mines, alumina refinery and aluminium plants.
• To highlight the proposed Greenfield activities of aluminium industry in the world with special reference to Asian countries.
• Latest technological developments in the field of bauxite beneficiation, alumina production, aluminium smelting, non-metallurgical bauxite and special alumina and aluminium products.
• Import and export potentials of bauxite, alumina and aluminium in China and other Asian countries
• Market and price trend of bauxite, alumina and aluminium and their products.
• Non-metallurgical applications of Bauxite and Alumina
• Market and price trends of calcined bauxite for refractory/abrasive industry, alumina cements, brown & white fused alumina, special alumina and all types of alumina chemicals.
• Latest technological developments in aluminum downstream industry.
• Market and price trends of Aluminium downstream products

The Symposium will provide an excellent opportunity to meet and interact with International experts, scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, representatives of aluminium industries world over.

Authors, experts and industry professionals are invited to submit abstracts/papers for technical presentations in the Conference. Companies, organisations and equipment manufacturers are requested to sponsor and book exhibition space for wide publicity among large number of bauxite, alumina and aluminium industry participants from this part of the world.
