UAE - EGA INITIATES CONSTRUCTION LARGEST ALUMINIUM RECYCLING PLANT

Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) has officially begun the construction of the largest aluminium recycling plant in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The facility, set to process 170 thousand tonnes of aluminium annually, will be adjacent to EGA's existing smelter in Al Taweelah. ndustry analysts foresee a significant surge in global demand for recycled aluminium, projecting an increase from 27 million tonnes per year in 2022 to 57 million tonnes by 2040.
This growth is expected to constitute approximately 60 per cent of the global aluminium supply increase between 2022 and 2030, and around 70 per cent between 2030 and 2040.
The recycling plant is designed to transform post-consumer aluminium scrap, including used window frames, and pre-consumer aluminium scrap from extrusion production into premium aluminium billets with low-carbon and high-quality characteristics.
