Aluminium industry in the European Economic Community

"In 1980, the EEC aluminium industry produced over 2 million tonnes of primary aluminium and over 1 million tonnes of secondary aluminium. Energy consumption was 11 million toe per year and energy savings of 1 million toe were obtained between 1976 and 1979 by improvement in specific energy use...

Zusammenfassung:"In 1980, the EEC aluminium industry produced over 2 million tonnes of primary aluminium and over 1 million tonnes of secondary aluminium. Energy consumption was 11 million toe per year and energy savings of 1 million toe were obtained between 1976 and 1979 by improvement in specific energy use. The breakdown of savings by activity is documented for alumina plants, smelter hot metal, smelter casting plants, fabricating remelets, hot rolling, cold rolling, and finishing etrusion, foil plants, secondary smelters and castings. Changes in specific energy use were from 1.7% in foil plants up to 23.8% in smelter casting plants. The energy audit analyses the energy sources, the collection and distribution of national data, including individual results, discusses ways to increase energy efficiency and outlines the industrial applications of properties of aluminium and its alloys and stresses the role of recycling as an additional basis for energy saving." - (Euro-abstracts, Section 1, Vol. 22, No 4, 1984)
