	Alumina Limited :: About Alumina Limited
		WMC Limited received a confidential and conditional proposal by Alcoa in October 2001 to acquire all the outstanding shares in WMC Limited.

		The WMC Limited Board formed the view that the stock market had not fully valued WMC Limited’s asset portfolio and that this undervaluation was partly attributable to a lack of recognition of the value of WMC Limited’s 40% interest in AWAC.

		These results may be explained in part by the use of solid fuel for which the combustion time is of the order of 1000 times greater than that of natural gas.
		The combustion zones are thus elongated, favoring the transfer of heat towards the solid alumina during calcination.
		In alumina refining process, hydrocyclones are most effectively used in the areas like closed circuit grinding, sand separation, sand washing, removal of residual solid from spent liquor and second stage filtrate to enhance plant productivity and classification of hydrate particles for product and seed granulometry control.
