The world’s alumina production in July 2024 stood at 12.155 million tonnes, up by 0.88 per cent from 12.049 million tonnes in June 2024 but down from 12.167 million tonnes in July 2023. However, the annual fall in the world’s July 2024 alumina output was largely offset by the increase in production in many other countries or regions.
For instance, in Africa & Asia (ex-China), alumina production in July 2024 was 1.209 million tonnes, registering an annual rise of 4.49 per cent from 1.157 million tonnes. However, on a month-on-month basis, the output shrank by 1.95 per cent from 1.233 million tonnes.
