For instance, Brexit is likely to lead to more trade restrictions between the UK and other countries in Europe. The US is also implementing several trade restrictions, especially with China, to boost its local production. For instance, the US imposed tariffs on $550 billion worth of Chinese goods including metals and metal products as of January 2020. Continued violence and terrorism in the Middle East and other parts globally are also expected to hurt the market. Automated manufacturing systems are gaining popularity as they enhance manufacturing productivity and reduce operating costs. Automation systems refer to a machine, tool, or technology such as robotics and AI that helps to reduce human intervention and improve safety in metal manufacturing processes such as processing, assembling, and material handling. This allows metal manufacturing companies to increase efficiency and production, improve safety on the manufacturing floor, enhance product quality, perform complex and varied tasks, enhance process stability, provide flexibility to produce products, and eliminate routine manual tasks. For instance, in November 2021, ABB Limited, a Switzerland-based manufacturing technology company, launched a smart factory solution. The new system is exceptional because it provides powerful real-time ladle tracking in addition to automated crane scheduling, a predictive thermal modeling engine, and other features. The tracking engine continuously monitors the movement of ladles using cranes and transfer carriages. In comparison to radio-frequency identification (RFID) solutions, radar and laser positioning technologies offer precise vision while requiring less hardware and maintenance.

The alumina and aluminum production and processing market consist of sales of alumina and aluminium by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) primarily engaged in alumina extraction primarily from bauxite ore, producing aluminium from alumina, recovering aluminium from scrap or dross, refining aluminium by any process, alloying purchased aluminium and rolling, drawing, casting, extruding and alloying aluminium and aluminium-based alloy into primary forms such as bar, foil, pipe, plate, rod, sheet, tube, wire. The main types of alumina and aluminium production and processing are aluminium product manufacturing from purchased aluminium, secondary smelting and alloying of aluminium, and alumina refining and primary aluminium production. Secondary smelting will utilize secondary resources to convert or recover lead metal. An aluminium alloy is a composition containing mainly aluminium to which other elements have been added. The alloy is made by combining the elements when aluminium is molten (liquid), which cools to form a homogeneous solid solution. The various applications involved automotive, manufacturing, and other applications. The global alumina and aluminum production and processing market size is expected to grow from $688.45 billion in 2021 to $788.58 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.5%. The alumina and aluminum production and processing market is expected to grow to $1,107.63 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 8.9%. Aluminium manufacturers are producing customized aluminium alloys for automobile manufacturers to produce lightweight vehicles. The use of aluminium alloys in vehicles reduces carbon emissions Increases fuel economy and improves overall stability as aluminium alloys considerably reduce vehicle body weight. This is primarily driven by stringent emission regulations and growing pressure to improve the economy by many national and state governments. For instance, the US government’s federal emission standards make it mandatory for automobile manufacturers to increase corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) to 54.5 mpg by 2025. This increase in CAFE is being achieved by increasing the aluminium content in the vehicle’s body to reduce its weight by around 30%. In line with this trend, global automobile manufacturers are increasing the aluminium content in their vehicles. Major players in the alumina and aluminum production and processing market are Rio Tinto, Weiqiao/ Hongqiao Group, United Co RUSAL PLC, Alcoa, and Norsk Hydro.
