China is the highest alumina producer, contributing around 58 per cent of the world’s output. According to the International Aluminium Institute survey, China produced 82.27 million tonnes of alumina in 2023, up by 3.15 per cent from 79.76 million tonnes in 2022. With this annual hike, China’s 2023 alumina output exceeded the pre-COVID level and further solidified its position as the world’s largest ore producer. As a consequence of the COVID-19 impacts, China’s alumina production decreased year-on-year in the previous three years by about 2 per cent but rebounded in 2023, surpassing 81.469 million tonnes of production in 2019.

Advanced technologies like the Bayer-Lurgi combined process and dry bauxite digestion helped China optimise resource utilisation and boost production. By the end of 2023, China’s installed alumina capacity had reached 100 million tonnes, with an operating capacity of 80.04 million tonnes. Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan were the top three alumina-producing Chinese provinces in 2023. The top companies are, subsequently, from these Chinese parts. Here is a list of the top five alumina producers from China.
