Abstract

This paper analyzes the main contradictions and challenges in the development of China's alumina industry in terms of resources, production costs and environmental governance, compares the production cost of China's alumina with that of other countries, analyzes the pollutants produced in the production process of alumina, and discusses the related problems. On this basis, this paper puts forward the strategies and suggestions for the sustainable development of China's alumina industry, that is, adopt advanced technology and equipment to solve the problem of bauxite resource shortage; Improve safety protection facilities to prevent accidents and hazards; Solve the problem of deep purification and standard discharge of alumina industrial flue gas; Implement the safe storage and resource utilization of alumina industrial solid waste; Increase the depth recovery efficiency of waste heat in alumina production; Implement all safety management measures and strengthen the ability to prevent accidents. By adopting the above strategies, the sustainable development strategy of China's alumina industry can be realized.
