Summary

Light Metals 2009 presents the most up-to-date information on the state of primary aluminum science and technology. It's a great mix of practical applied technology and hard science, which is of invaluable benefit to the global aluminum industry as it strives to cut costs and increase profitability. Areas covered include: Alumina and Bauxite Aluminum Reduction Technology Cast Shop for Aluminum Production Electrode Technology for Aluminum Production Aluminum Hot Rolling/Aluminum Cold Rolling and Strip ProcessIn the light metals industry, aluminum will always have serious competition from other materials. Held at the TMS Annual Meeting & Exhibition each year, the Light Metals series has become the definitive annual reference source in the field of aluminum production and related light metals technologies.
