For the first time aluminium production in business Scale was done by saint Clare Doyle, as a precious and rare metal entered in the market. But independent discovery was done in U.S.A in 1886 by Hall and Herolt in France, which resulted in an industrial development for aluminium extraction with high purity by electrolyse method which is a base for industrial aluminium production.

In 1888 Bayer a famous German Scientist completed Hall and Herolt process and Caused a big evelution in aluminium industry due to the reducing of production Costs.
