New Zealand witnesses continuous downfall of aluminium scrap export during 2019-22

EDITED BY : 2MINS READ

A systemic process is used to remanufacture scrap metal, such as aluminium, into new products. It is possible to recycle aluminium by remelting it, which is a more durable and less energy-intensive process than extracting it electrolytically from bauxite ore. However, this is also to be notified that recycling aluminium scrap requires about 5% of the energy needed to produce new aluminium.

Following a surge of 4.7% in 2021, New Zealand’s GDP is predicted to augment by 3.8% in 2022 before easing to 2.5% growth in 2023. Mathias Cormann, the Secretary-General of OECD, while presenting the survey alongside Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson and Minister for the Digital Economy and Communications David Clark said, “The near-term economic outlook is positive. The New Zealand economy has recovered strongly from the pandemic. The need for policy action is pressing in several areas to make economic growth sustainable. For instance, helping the digital sector to grow would help boost labour productivity.”

“Linking pension eligibility to life expectancy and adopting long-term debt-to-GDP targets would help address the projected increase in government debt.”
