A PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ALUMINUM, WHICH COMPRISES HEATING AT LEAST ONE ALKYLALUMINUM COMPOUND HAVING THE GENERAL FORMUAL OF (R2R2CH-CH2)2AIX, WHEREIN R2 AND R2 ARE EACH SELECTED FROM THE GROUP SISTING OF HYDROGEN ATOM AND ALKYL RADICALS AND X IS SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF HYDROGEN ATOM AND R1R2CH-CH2- RADICALS AT A TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 200* C. AND 300*C., WHILE IN THE FORM OF A LIQUID IN A HEATING ZONE, TO THERMALLY DECOMPOSE THE SAID ALKYLALUMINUM COMPOUND TO GIVE ALUMINUM, HYDROGEN AND OLEFIN, WHILE KEEPING THE DECOMPOSITION RATE OF THE SAID ALKYLALUMIUM COMPOUND AT A RATE OF MORE THAN 3% IN MOLE PER MINUTE BASED UPON THE TOTAL NUMBER OF MOLES OF THE SAID ALKYLALUMINUM COMPOUND PRESENT IN THE SAID HEATING ZONE, BY MEASURING THE VOLUME OF THE GENERATED GAS DURING THE DECOMPOSITION REACTION.
