In fact, half of Europe’s primary aluminium production capacity has been curtailed since 2020, and 1 out of 5 #alumina plants has ceased operations due to high energy costs & regulatory burdens.
The pressure on Europe’s aluminium supply chain is expected to remain or even increase in the future.

🔵 Our solutions for cement production with activated clay, such as preheating combustion air at 700°C, could reduce emissions by 80%. Full decarbonisation, requiring 850°C, is of course possible but at higher cost.
In a sector that’s responsible for ~8% of global CO₂ emissions, it matters!
