The super light weight in the metal pool,
Alu is amazing cool.
It has a nice and silver shine,
a good ductility for smart design.

For every metal there is an ore,
Bauxite is literally like sand at the shore.
Aluminum is quite commonly found,
but strongly with oxygen bound.

First achieved from Monsieur Deville,
he showed actually significant skill.
A carbonate leaching was done,
but upscale was just no fun.

Therefore, for a short time,
Aluminum pure and fine.
Has been heavily expensive, much more the gold,
Napoleon on a baby, on his rattle, he got it to hold.

It was soon replaced from Mr. Bayer,
an enthusiastic cotton dyer.
Better working, easier to achieve,
the french process had to retrieve.

From the Hydroxide you can go with Hall,
a high ampere electric install.
To purify electrochemically,
all to aluminums high oxygen affinty.

Those processes are intense in energy demand,
for those who feel now alarmed.
The recycling process is quite easily done,
but not if the beer can is forever gone.

Take care and responsible with this material,
its benefit is nice and real.
The light weight and ducitily makes it easy to process,
non magnetic, and easy to give a colourful dress.

In tons its second produced per year,
not everything is used to can cola and beer.
Its very convenient in the automobile sector,
its low density makes a nice weight factor.

It is relatively cheap those days,
so it finds several application ways.
Kitchen tools and others for daily life,
even a high quality knife.

High corrosion resistant, and a good conductivity,
are were significant.
It is widely used in electronic industry,
weight reduction and capacity.

Broad use, broad application,
and easy recycling realization.
Quite good conditions, and a nice metal indeed,
besides its benefits, not from every critique freed.

Tons of energy are need for the production chain,
red mud, a toxic waste, an additional gain.
One can handle those things right,
but usually, about those things there is fright.

So waste management is a thing to be done,
but not yet all prejudices are gone,
There is no requirement in the human body,
as non toxic declared through a long time of study.

However it is concentrating in nerves and bone,
but not through drinking from alu cans alone.
If you cook from time to time,
you should be completely fine.

With a beer and lasagne from the microwave,
be healty and stay safe.
Aluminum appears everywhere,
but altough it is not that rare.

It is precious, so do not waste it carelessly,
take your responsibility,
Keep it in the material stream,
dont throw it, where it stays waste and unseen.
