The 43rd International Conference and Exhibition of ICSOBA was successfully held in Nanning, Guangxi, from October 26 to 31, 2025. NHD International Business Team was honored to participate and engage in fruitful exchanges with industry peers. Key topics such as Bayer process advancements, red mud utilization, and high-efficiency thickener technologies align closely with NHD’s two decades of expertise in the alumina sector.
In the keynote speech, Mr. Kang Yi, former President of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, highlighted that half of the world’s top ten alumina producers in 2024 are Chinese companies—including China Aluminum Group (19.68 million tons) and Shandong Weiqiao Group (18.05 million tons), ranked first and second.
NHD has been proud to support these industry leaders over the years, contributing to the remarkable growth of China’s alumina sector through advanced equipment such as the 260㎡ large-diameter horizontal pan filters, which helped accelerate production scaling.
Featuring 3 keynote speeches and over 120 technical presentations across four days of parallel sessions, the conference brought together leading experts, scientists, engineers, and suppliers to discuss critical topics such as:
- Sustainability & Decarbonization
