As Angul smelter expands to 0.96 MTPA, NALCO turns to aluminium fluoride supply security
National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO) has invited expressions of interest (EOI) from manufacturers, investors and potential joint-venture partners to establish aluminium fluoride (AlF3) production facilities as it prepares to expand its Angul smelter capacity from 0.46 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to approximately 0.96 million tonnes per annum (MTPA).
