Ukuvuselela ishishini le-aluminium kwihlabathi liphela! I-EGA kunye ne-Century Aluminium bazakwakha isityalo se-aluminium esiyintloko esinomthamo weetoni ezingama-750,000 eMelika, nto leyo eza kunika amandla ukuphuculwa kwemveliso yasekuhlaleni.

Ngomhla wama-27 kweyoMqungu ngo-2026, kwavela iindaba ezibalulekileyo kwishishini le-aluminium kwihlabathi liphela. I-Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) kunye ne-Century Aluminium babhengeze isivumelwano sokusebenzisana, apho omabini amaqela aza kutyala imali ngokubambisana ekwakheni isityalo sokuqala semveliso ye-aluminium esinomthamo wonyaka weetoni ezingama-750,000 e-United States. Ukuphunyezwa kwale projekthi akuyi kuphucula kuphela amandla okubonelela ngezinto ze-aluminium eziphezulu e-United States, kodwa kuya kongeza nefuthe elinamandla kwimisebenzi yasekuhlaleni kunye nophuhliso lwamashishini okuvelisa asezantsi.

Ngokweenkcukacha zentsebenziswano ezivezwe ngamaqela omabini, i-joint venture esekwe ngeli xesha iza kwamkela isakhiwo sesabelo esahlulweyo, apho i-EGA ibambe i-60% yezabelo kwaye i-Century Aluminium ibambe i-40%. Omabini amaqela aza kusebenzisa amandla awo aphambili ukuqhubela phambili imisebenzi yeprojekthi: Njengomvelisi we-aluminium wesihlanu ngobukhulu kwihlabathi liphela, i-EGA inengeniso enkulu kubuchwepheshe bokunyibilikisa i-aluminium obuphezulu kunye noyilo lwekhonkco lokubonelela ngeenkonzo kwihlabathi liphela. Ubuchwepheshe bayo beeseli ze-DX kunye ne-DX+ eziphuhliswe ngokuzimeleyo zikhokela kushishino, kwaye amandla ayo okuvelisa i-aluminium ye-electrolytic angaphezulu kwe-2.7 yezigidi zeetoni, ebonisa amandla okuqina kwezixhobo kunye nobuchwepheshe. I-Century Aluminium, kwelinye icala, ibisoloko imile kwimarike yasekhaya yase-US iminyaka emininzi, inolawulo oluchanekileyo kwimigaqo-nkqubo yemizi-mveliso yasekhaya kunye neemeko zemfuno ezisezantsi, kwaye iyakwazi ukubonelela ngenkxaso enamandla yokuphunyezwa kweprojekthi kunye nokwandiswa kwemarike.

Ukuphunyezwa kwale projekthi kuza kuzisa impembelelo ebalulekileyo yokunyusa amathuba emisebenzi. Ngokweengxelo, ixesha lokwakhiwa kwale projekthi kulindeleke ukuba lidale imisebenzi yokwakha emalunga nama-4,000, equka iinkalo ezininzi ezifana nokwakhiwa kobunjineli, ukufakwa kwezixhobo, kunye nokuxhasa ukwakhiwa kwezakhiwo. Nje ukuba le projekthi iqalise ukusebenza ngokusemthethweni, iya kuqhubeka nokubonelela ngemisebenzi esisigxina emalunga ne-1,000, equka iindawo eziphambili ezifana nemisebenzi yemveliso, uphando nophuhliso lwetekhnoloji, kunye nolawulo lokusebenza. Oku kubaluleke kakhulu ekuqhubeni imisebenzi yasekuhlaleni kunye nokuvuselela amandla oqoqosho lwengingqi.

Ngokwembono yexabiso leshishini, le projekthi ihlangabezana ngokuchanekileyo neemfuno ezisebenzayo zobonelelo lwe-aluminium yasekhaya eMelika. Kwiminyaka yakutshanje, imfuno ye-aluminium yehlabathi iqhubekile nokunyuka, ngakumbi kumacandelo okuvelisa aphezulu afana nezithuthi zamandla amatsha, ukugcinwa kwamandla e-photovoltaic, kunye ne-aerospace. Imfuno ye-aluminium esemgangathweni ophezulu ibonise ukukhula okukhulu. Nangona kunjalo, kukho iziphene ezibalulekileyo kumandla okuvelisa i-aluminium yasekhaya eMelika, kunye nezinye eziphezulu.izixhobo ze-aluminiumukuthembela kwiimveliso ezivela kwamanye amazwe. Ngaphezu koko, ngenxa yezizathu ezifana nokungabikho kombane ngokwaneleyo, ukuzinza kwamandla okuvelisa akhoyo kujongana nemingeni.

Ukugqitywa kwesi sityalo semveliso ye-aluminium esiphambili esiziitoni ezingama-750,000 kuya kuvala ngokufanelekileyo umsantsa ekunikezelweni kwezixhobo ze-aluminium eziphezulu zasekhaya eMelika, kubonelela ngesiqinisekiso esiqinileyo sezinto eziluhlaza zokuphucula amashishini okuvelisa asezantsi, kunye nokwenza kube lula ukuphunyezwa kwesicwangciso sokubuyisela kunye nokuphucula amashishini okuvelisa aseMelika.

Iingcali zoshishino zithe, nangona imboni ye-aluminium yehlabathi itshintshela kuphuhliso oluluhlaza nolukumgangatho ophezulu, intsebenziswano phakathi kwe-EGA kunye ne-Century Aluminium imi njengomzekelo wentsebenziswano enqamlezileyo. Kwelinye icala, le projekthi iya kunceda ekuphunyezweni kwetekhnoloji yokunyibilikisa i-aluminium ephucukileyo ye-EGA kwimarike yaseMntla Melika, iphucule ngakumbi uyilo lwayo lwemveliso yehlabathi. Kwelinye icala, iya kufaka amandla okukhula amatsha kwishishini le-aluminium lasekhaya laseMelika, inciphise ubuthathaka kwicala lokubonelela. Kulindeleke ukuba emva kokuba le projekthi iqalisiwe ukusebenza, ayizukuphucula kuphela ukhuphiswano oluphambili lwamaqela omabini kwimarike yehlabathi ye-aluminium kodwa ikwabonelela ngeengcinga ezintsha zentsebenziswano kuphuhliso oludibeneyo lweshishini le-aluminium yehlabathi.
