Info

The SPIN (2006) database indicated for the four included Nordic countries that a volume of 2240.2 t in total in altogether 43 preparations were on the market in the year 2004 (Danish data from the year 2003). The most recent use data (Finland and Norway for the year 2004) indicate a use of 1853.3 t in the industrial category “manufacture/industry of basic metals” (83 % of total amount). The other industrial categories between the years 2001 and 2004 have been “industry for fabricated metal products, except machinery and equipment”, “industry for other non-metallic mineral products” and “manufacture of chemicals and chemical products”, whereas the use categories were “raw materials for production of metals”, “others”, “fillers” “process regulators” and “flux agents for casting”. This information is in accordance with the data provided by industry. Table 1.2: Primary aluminium production sites in Europe (EAA 2006b). Some of the sites were closing by 2006.
