In 2025, around 120 SpaceX Starlink satellites re-entered Earth’s atmosphere and burnt up upon descent. These artificial meteor showers, visible across the globe, have raised concerns about their ...

Re-entries of SpaceX Starlink satellites are causing environmental concerns by releasing aluminium oxide, which could harm ...

Raw aluminium readily forms a tough oxide layer when exposed to air, which protects the metal from further corrosion or reactions with many chemicals. This oxide layer can form incredibly quickly ...

(aq) \rightarrow \mathbf{4}Al\, (s) + \mathbf{3}O_{2}\, (g)\) The equation shows you that for every two moles of aluminium oxide oxidised, four moles of aluminium metal are obtained along with ...

Russian aluminium producer Rusal said on Thursday it is setting up a 1.5 tonne-a-year production facility for the rare-earth metal scandium, with the capacity to increase to 19 metric tonnes a year.

ASX-listed Arrow Minerals has reported a maiden mineral resource of 185-million tonnes at 42.3% aluminium oxide (AI2O3) and 2 ...

While mesmerizing, satellite re-entries release aluminium oxide nanoparticles, which could impact the ozone layer for decades before we see the damage. With 8,000+ Starlink satellites launched and ...

At a 25% aluminium oxide cut-off, the inferred resource stands at 168.3 million tonnes at 36.1% aluminium oxide and 14.7% ...

Aluminium is more reactive than carbon so it must be extracted from its compounds using electrolysis. Even though aluminium is more abundant than iron in the Earth's crust, aluminium is more ...
