Dak Nong Nhan Co Bauxite Mine & Alumina Refinery

Dak Nong Nhan Co Bauxite Mine & Alumina Refinery is an aluminium smelter in Vietnam with a reported capacity of 720,000 t of alumina/aluminum. It smelts alumina into primary aluminium by high-current electrolysis. It is operated by Vietnam National Coal and Mineral Industries Holding Corp Ltd. By capacity it ranks #1 of 3 aluminium smelters tracked in Vietnam. It emits about 1,504,608 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 350,724 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-43764976.

En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

À 720,000 t of alumina/aluminum, Dak Nong Nhan Co Bauxite Mine & Alumina Refinery est bien au-dessus de la médiane des aluminium smelter en Vietnam (108,850 t of alumina/aluminum). Sous-secteur: aluminum. Comme aluminium smelter, elle nécessite une chaleur de procédé intensive (typiquement 600–900°C) pour ses opérations industrielles essentielles — chaleur qui doit être fournie par des chaudières, fours ou combustion directe, et les pertes par les récipients et tuyauteries non isolés représentent du combustible gaspillé. L'isolation modulaire amovible peut réduire ces pertes de 80–96%, refroidissant les surfaces à ≤45°C, avec des délais d'amortissement souvent inférieurs à 2 ans. Les fonderies d'aluminium utilisent de grands courants électriques pour raffiner l'alumine en aluminium fondu au-dessus de 900°C, et le métal chaud doit s'écouler à travers des creusets et des équipements de coulée.
