Comment: This is a market activity. Each market represents the consumption mix of a product in a given geography, connecting suppliers with consumers of the same product in the same geographical area. Markets group the producers and also the imports of the product (if relevant) within the same geographical area. They also account for transport to the consumer and for the losses during that process, when relevant. This is the market for 'aluminium, primary, ingot', in the geography of IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA. In 2012, the global consumption of primary aluminium is estimated at 50 million tonnes. 50% of this consumption is made in China. Moreover, China, represents about 50% of the primary aluminium production. Thus, China is a balance market and almost self sufficient. However, Europe has a huge deficit of primary aluminium. About 45% - 50% of the European consumption of primary is from imports. These imports are coming mainly from 3 areas (Rest of Europe, Middle East and Africa). Transport from producers to consumers of this product in the geography covered by the market is included. This market is supplied by the following activities with the given share: aluminium, ingot, primary, import from Africa, IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.110214324470971 aluminium, ingot, primary, import from Asia (excluding China), IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.0143757814527354 aluminium, ingot, primary, import from Middle East (Gulf cooperation Council), IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.100630470169148 aluminium, ingot, primary, import from Northern America, IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.0287515629054708 aluminium, ingot, primary, import from Oceania, IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.00479192715091179 aluminium, ingot, primary, import from Rest of Europe, IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.206052867489207 aluminium, ingot, primary, import from South America, IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.0143757814527354 aluminium production, primary, ingot, IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA: 0.520807284908821 generalComment of aluminium production, primary, ingot (IAI Area, EU27 & EFTA): The dataset represents the production of 1kg of primary aluminium ingot. Molten aluminium produced from the electrolytic process is tapped from reduction cells, weighed, sampled and analysed before it is poured into a holding furnace and heated to approximately 750°C using natural gas as a fuel. Alloying elements, such as magnesium, silicon and manganese, for additional strength, corrosion resistance and other properties, are added to the aluminium. It is typically at this point in the process that clean, sorted scrap can also be added but for the purposes of this dataset, scrap remelting is excluded. During furnace charging and preparation, aluminium dross (a thick liquid or solid phase) forms at the surface of molten aluminium. This mixture of aluminium oxides is remelted to recover the aluminium that would otherwise be lost. Metallurgical analysis verifies that the metal meets customer specifications before the molten, alloyed (or pure, unalloyed) aluminium is cast into products of specific dimensions, before being weighed, bundled and strapped ready for transport. Original dataset included some alloying elements. These were replaced by liquid aluminium to generate a theoretical 100% aluminium ingot.
