IBAAS-IMMT-IIM 2025: Advancing a green and smart aluminium industry

The 13^th International Bauxite, Alumina & Aluminium Conference & Exhibition (IBAAS-IMMT-IIM 2025) is set to take place during October 8-10, 2025, in Bhubaneswar, India. In association with the Institute of Minerals and Materials Technology (CSIR-IMMT) and the Indian Institute of Metals (IIM), Bhubaneswar Chapter, the event will bring together global experts, researchers, and industry leaders to discuss the latest advancements in the aluminium sector.

This year’s conference theme, “A Green and Smart Aluminium Industry for Tomorrow,” underscores the industry’s commitment to sustainability, digitalisation, and innovation. As the aluminium sector undergoes rapid transformation, the conference will serve as a crucial platform for addressing challenges and exploring cutting-edge developments in bauxite mining, alumina refining, aluminium smelting, and downstream processing.
