Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Dongxing Aluminum Longxi Branch receives National Green Factory title for sustainable approaches

EDITED BY : MAYURAKSHI GANGULY 2MINS READ

The Department of Energy Conservation and Comprehensive Utilization of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology recently revealed the national list of green manufacturing in 2023, with Dongxing Aluminum Longxi Branch making the cut as a National Green Factory.

In order to promote environmentally friendly and low-carbon development, Longxi Branch has been working hard to optimize production processes and technologies, reduce resource consumption, and minimize waste emissions. The company has upgraded the rectifier unit of its 240kA rectifier station in a green, automatic, and intelligent manner.

This has not only solved safety issues that were present in the original rectifier system but also improved the rectifier efficiency of the 240kA rectifier unit. Thanks to these efforts, the energy consumption per tonne of aluminium in 240kA series production lines has been reduced by roughly 130kWh.

The alumina conveying system is undergoing a green carbon reduction transformation project. The project aims to build three sets of 400kA series and two sets of 240kA series fresh alumina pneumatic chute conveying systems equipped with bucket elevator and dust removal facilities. Each pneumatic chute will have a conveying capacity of 60t/h, and the dust emission concentration of the dust removal system will be below 10mg/Nm.

The successful implementation of this project will result in a reduction of 31kWh power consumption per tonne of aluminium. Additionally, through technical transformation, the company's comprehensive AC unit consumption of aluminium liquid has been reduced to 13,425 kWh per tonne Al, which is much lower than the national standard.

Longxi Branch has been working towards building a garden-style factory by promoting tree planting and greening within the factory area. They have also upgraded the hazardous waste warehouse, standardized the transfer and disposal of hazardous waste, and strengthened the control of the electrolytic cell production process to prevent air pollution. The branch aims to improve the green level by saving energy and water, achieving clean production, preventing pollution, and utilizing resources. They are striving to achieve the goal of peak carbon dioxide emissions and carbon neutrality to become a national green factory.
