US-based combustion technology provider Bloom Engineering has highlighted the growing role of advanced combustion systems in improving efficiency and reducing emissions across the aluminium industry. Its technologies are used in aluminium melting, holding, homogenising, reheating and heat-treatment processes, where precise temperature control is critical to production efficiency and product quality. Founded in 1934 and headquartered in Pittsburgh, Bloom Engineering provides industrial burners, combustion systems, controls engineering and technical services through operations in the US, Germany, India and China. The company’s solutions support the use of natural gas, hydrogen, biofuels and other fuels while helping customers reduce CO₂ and NOx emissions, improve temperature uniformity, increase production capacity and lower fuel consumption. As aluminium producers accelerate decarbonisation efforts, advanced combustion technologies are expected to play a key role in supporting low-carbon and energy-efficient manufacturing.

Domestic and International Aluminum Prices Weakened in Tandem, Geopolitical Tensions Eased, Aluminum Prices Under Pressure Overall [SMM Aluminum Morning Meeting Minutes]

[Domestic and Overseas Aluminum Prices Weaken in Tandem as Geopolitical Easing Puts Overall Pressure on Aluminum] The US Fed's dot plot released a hawkish pivot, turning the global macro front bearish. Recent oil price declines have also indirectly supported a stronger US dollar, exerting downward pressure on aluminum prices. In China, destocking continues to accelerate, but absolute inventory remains at elevated levels. With no new macro bullish catalysts, SHFE aluminum followed LME aluminum under pressure. It is expected that aluminum prices will remain in the doldrums in the short term.
