Alumina capacity cuts will far outweigh those of aluminum, SMM predicts.

SHANGHAI, Oct. 27 (SMM) – Alumina capacity cuts will far outweigh those of aluminum, SMM predicts.

Roughly 2.67 million tonnes of annual aluminum capacity will be cut in winter heating season, affecting aluminum production by 1 million tonnes at the most, SMM estimates.

A staggering 12 million tonnes of annual alumina capacity might be lost in the same period, SMM expects.
