This study assesses the water footprint of hydropower plants with a significant contribution to the electricity supply of aluminium smelters.
After agriculture, hydropower is considered to be the next largest water-consuming sector, largely due to evaporation (EV) from the reservoir surface. This study looks at the water footprint of hydropower and examines the water consumption and resulting impacts on water resource availability and the environment.
Aluminium’s power is in its versatility. From transforming transport and shaping smart cities to offering infinite recyclability, discover everything there is to know about this resourceful metal.
...Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology could be a key pillar in achieving full decarbonisation of aluminium smelting, according to a new report from AFRY commissioned by the International Aluminium Institute (IAI). The comprehensive study, which examines the technical and economic feasibility of retrofitting CCS technology to existing aluminium potlines, ...
This study builds upon Eunomia’s previous studies into materials decarbonisation pathways. The scope of this report is focused on aluminium in comparison to four competing materials— steel, copper, container glass, PVC —taken from the perspective of their global value chains. The analysis looks at the Net Zero pathways that are ...
