The aluminum smelting process uses electrolysis to convert bauxite into alumina and then to metal aluminum. During electrolysis electricity runs through an electrolytic cell (it's like a battery) which is an iron container lined with graphite and filled with a solution of pure alumina in molten cryolite Na3AlF6.

Bauxite is then converted into aluminum oxide, or alumina, using natural gas at plants located in the southern United States. After alumina is extracted from bauxite ore, further processing called 'smelting' is necessary to convert it into aluminum. In this process, alumina is dissolved in a solution and a strong electric current is applied.

At an aluminium smelter, alumina is poured into special reduction cells with molten cryolite at 950℃. Electric currents are then induced in the mixture at 400 kA or above; this current breaks the bond between the aluminium and oxygen atoms resulting in liquid aluminium settling at the bottom of the reduction cell.
