The furnace recovers the aluminium from low quality scrap and produces a waste of contaminants significantly lower than the traditional models, in addition its geometry facilitates the emptying and cleaning of the dross.
Latem Aluminium will reach an annual production of 45.000 t in 2022. Initially, Latem will produce ingots destined to various sectors such as automotive and other industrial processes. However, once the aluminium lamination plant that Latem is currently building in Zamora, Spain, enters into service, it is intended that a portion of the raw material used in the lamination process is supplied by Villadangos plant.
