  • Resumen
    • The non-metallurgical alumina market is diverse and complex and, over the past year, its main sub-sectors have been under pressure from rising costs and hiccups in supply, limiting availability of white fused, alumina hydrate and calcined alumina to the wider market, independent consultant, Ted Dickson, discovers.Although the non-metallurgical alumina industry plays a small part in the overall consumption of alumina, it is a diverse sector with many applications and an approximate total consumption of over 7 million tonnes during 2017 in terms of alumina content. [...]because volumes are much smaller, prices are higher than standard metallurgical grades by $30-40 per tonne. The water treatment chemicals business is mature in developed nations, where modest growth rates are in line with population trends, possibly no more than 1-2%. [...]of the problems in Brazil, Southern Ionics, the largest US importer, was affected as regards its alumina-hydrate-based products.
