Aluminum processing is the process of producing aluminum ingots (or recycled aluminum) through various processes and processes such as casting, rolling, extrusion and surface treatment to produce final products for use in different industries. The aluminum processing industry is divided into three sub-industries: upstream electrolytic aluminum, midstream aluminum processing and downstream consumption.
The terminal applications involve architectural decoration, packaging containers, aerospace, transportation, etc. According to data from the China Nonferrous Metals Processing Association: In 2022, China's comprehensive output of aluminum processing materials, including aluminum extrusions, aluminum plates and strips, aluminum foils, aluminum wires, aluminum powders, aluminum forgings, etc., will be 45.2 million tons, excluding The output of aluminum processed materials after aluminum foil blanks was 39.5 million tons. Among them, the output of plates and strips was 13.8 million tons, aluminum foil 5.02 million tons, aluminum extrusions 21.5 million tons, aluminum wires 4.5 million tons, aluminum powder 150,000 tons, and aluminum forgings 230,000 tons.
