The low energy consumption required for recycling aluminum makes the process important. The energy required to recycle aluminum is about 4-5% of the energy that is needed to produce the light-weight metal from bauxite. Thus, recycling aluminum will result in 95% energy saving. Aluminum scrap and waste fall into two general categories: new and old scrap. New scrap is metal that is left over during the production of finished products or semis. Old scrap, on the other hand, is metal from end-of-life goods. Aluminum scrap can be used by producers with melting capacities.

Thanks to their various shapes, aluminum extrusions have wide applications in different industries. Among the consumer industries, the construction sector is the largest consumer of extrusions in curtain walls and aluminum doors and windows. Due to Saudi Arabia’s hot climate, the construction industry has moved towards using more insulation products, such as curtain walls and double-glazed doors and windows, which will not only minimize energy loss, but also have much lower installation costs in tall, big buildings compared to other types of façade.

Aluminum wire rod is generally produced using one of three processes: continuous casting and rolling, direct casting, and extrusion. The production process affects the dimensions, shape, quality, and purity of the wire rod. Most of the wire rod produced through extrusion is packed in bundles, but wire rod that is produced through casting is often packed as coils. Most of the wire rod coil produced in Saudi Arabia is through continuous casting and rolling. The process involves the continuous casting of billets and then rolling it into wire rod with the desired thickness.

The production of aluminum wires and cables accounts for the main consumption of wire rod. Mechanical applications such as rivets, screws, fences, and meshes are also large consumers. Demand for aluminum wires and cables from electrical industries and related consumers is expected to be steady over the coming years.

Most of the aluminum foil produced in Saudi Arabia uses continuous casting and rolling. Perishable food and drug packaging as well as disposable containers are the most important applications of aluminum foil. Most of the country’s demand is met through imports, with domestic output taking a small share of the market. Saudi Arabia’s food and drug industry has grown over the years, bolstering demand for aluminum foil.

Aluminum smelters (unwrought producers) fall into two categories: primary and secondary smelters. Molten aluminum cast as unwrought products can be produced either through alumina electrolysis in primary smelters or through remelting scrap and pure ingots in secondary smelters. Primary smelting is a cost-intensive process; thus, such plants are usually large-scale producers that can be economical with capacities above 100,000 tonnes. But remelting aluminum in secondary smelters requires much lower costs, making small-scale capacities economical.

Secondary smelting capacity is limited in Saudi Arabia and most of the unwrought aluminum comes from Ma’aden’s primary smelter. Unwrought aluminum is in three forms: ingots, billets, and slabs. While aluminum ingots are produced through single-batch casting of molten aluminum in 1,000lb or 50lb molds, slab and billets are produced through direct chill casting. Ingots are re-melted before use, but billets and slabs are usually extruded and rolled, respectively, into profiles and flat products. Considering there is only one integrated hot rolling mill in the country that also produces slabs, it does not offer its slabs in the market.

Most of the aluminum foil produced in Oman uses continuous casting and rolling. Perishable food and drug packaging as well as disposable containers are the most important applications of aluminum foil. Most of the country’s output is exported due to the weak domestic demand. Oman’s food industry, an emerging and growing market, is one of the largest consumers of aluminum foil.
