Environmental protection: aluminum in the nature reserves in the very rich, China's bauxite reserves are the world, proved reserves are 630 million tons, and it is a regeneration of a strong metal, it's "Green vitality "for continuing to play, in this sense, the aluminum is inexhaustible. At present, the metal used in construction materials, second only to the use of aluminum steel, with its own very high value.
The advantages of aluminum is well-known: its wide adaptability, high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, and novel structure, and so do a lot of surface treatment. Aluminum in the construction continues to expand the scope of application, in many ways the material can not be replaced.
Aluminum can be said of the shortcomings of the people is also a larger energy production: from the bauxite in the primary aluminum produced when a one-time energy consumption of electrolytic aluminum is great, but in its deep-processing (value-added processing) process, from the aluminum into further into the doors and windows and other profiles, and then installed on buildings, as a final product, the process the largest value-added, energy consumption is very small. If the wider use of renewable sources of aluminum, the production of renewable sources of aluminum, it is usually the energy consumption by only about 5% of aluminum. Therefore, in general terms, aluminum is a green product, and its value is higher than its energy consumption, we can not simply seen as aluminum is a high energy consumption products. |
