Indonesia’s Antam to start building new nickel smelter, HPAL plant in 2025

Indonesian state-controlled miner Aneka Tambang (Antam) aims to launch the construction of two nickel processing facilities next year under its partnership with China’s Ningbo Contemporary Brunp Lygend Ltd (CBL).
 
The projects are part of Antam’s deal with CBL to develop an “ecosystem” to produce materials used in batteries for electric vehicles (EV), and part of Indonesia’s bigger ambition to set up itself as a production hub for EVs.
 
This year, the companies involved are conducting feasibility studies for a rotary klin electric furnace (RKEF) plant to process nickel into crude metal and a high-pressure acid leach (HPAL) plant to extract the material used in EV batteries from nickel ores.
