<\/strong>EGA <\/strong>breaks ground on UAE aluminum recycling plant:<\/strong> UAE aluminum producer Emirates<\/a>Global Aluminium<\/a> (EGA) started construction on the UAE's largest aluminum recycling plant, according to a statement<\/a>. The plant will process around 170k tons of aluminum scraps annually into low-carbon aluminum billets<\/a> to supply local and global markets, and will be located next to EGA\u2019s existing smelter in Khalifa Industrial Zone Abu Dhabi\u2019s (KIZAD) Al Taweelah<\/a> complex. Recycled aluminum consumes up to 95% less energy than new metal production. <\/p>\n

We knew this was coming:<\/strong> EGA announced its plans to launch the recycling plant<\/a> last month as demand for recycled aluminum is expected to increase by 50% to 80% by 2050.<\/p>\n

EGA's portfolio gets greener:<\/strong> EGA launched a supply chain finance<\/a> program with Emirates NBD last month to help aluminum producers green their UAE operations<\/a>. It also partnered with BP in May<\/a> to explore cutting emissions from the company\u2019s calcined petroleum coke supply chain. It was also the first in the UAE to join the First Movers Coalition<\/a> by committing to sourcing the materials it needs for aluminum production from low-carbon sources.<\/p>\n

The region is looking to reduce waste across different sectors:<\/strong> KSA's Al Bashayer Company reviewed plans last month for an EGP 1 bn waste repurposing plant<\/a> in Egypt. Oman also inaugurated its largest e-waste recycling plant<\/a> earlier this month. The UAE's Beeah, Saudi Investment Recycling Company, and Al-Maqar Development Company also signed an agreement last week to establish a company to develop and provide integrated waste management solutions<\/a> in Madinah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
