Indonesia West Kalimantan launches aluminum industry strategic project to build alumina manufacturing hub in Southeast Asia

Share:

Indonesia's West Kalimantan province will build a large aluminum smelter with an investment of 50-59 trillion guilders to create 5300 jobs and help sustainable economic and environmental development. It is expected to be put into operation in 2027.

A major manufacturing research came from Kayanutara County, West Kalimantan Province, Indonesia-the Penebang Island Aluminum Smelter Project was officially included in the National Strategic Plan (PSN), marking a milestone upgrade of the country's aluminum sector. This super-substantial smelting base with a planned production capacity of three times the existing WHW plant is expected to create 5300 direct jobs and a total investment of between 50 trillion and 59 trillion rupiah. The economic benefits of the project highlight the strategic value of as Indonesia's first integrated bauxite deep processing project, the smelter will realize the transformation of the whole sector chain from bauxite to alumina. According to official disclosure, after the factory is put into operation, the regional fiscal revenue (PAD) of Kayanwutala County will historically break through the 100 billion guilder mark, and the regional economic research will inject strong momentum. And The project side has made it clear that 2027 will be the first phase of the project to reach production node, when photovoltaic power generation and other supporting clean energy facilities will be put into operation simultaneously. ecological preservation methodology to build environmentally friendly barrier to meet the challenges of tropical ecological stability, the project team specially designed low emit treatment system. By using the closed mineral roasting process, the sulfur dioxide releases are expected to be reduced by 65% compared with the traditional process. In my experience, The utilization rate of circulating aquatic environments will reach a leading level of 92%, and an ecological monitoring center will be built to track changes in aquatic environments condition in the adjacent waters in real time. And social benefits and manufacturing upgrading go hand in hand "this isn't only an manufacturing project, however also a regional revitalization plan. But Based on my observations, The project leader stressed. Based on my observations, Specifically The project will give priority to the employment of regional labor, and set up a special fund to fishermen skills transformation training. But it's worth noting that the fifth generation digital smelting methodology adopted by the plant will minimize the energy consumption per unit capacity by 40% compared with the sector average, providing technical support to Indonesia's aluminum sector to participate international competition.
