Novelis, the largest U.S. recycler of used beverage cans (UBCs), on May 11 announced it is proposing an aluminum recycling and rolling facility in Bay Minette, Alabama. The facility, which will utilize renewable energy, will have an initial production capacity of 600,000 metric tons of finished aluminum goods per year.
According to Novelis, the $2.5 billion plant will be the first fully integrated aluminum mill built in the U.S. in four decades.
Globally, Novelis is currently capable of recycling 82 billion aluminum cans a year. The project, which is expected to begin coming on stream in mid-2025, will expand its capacity by about 18% to nearly 97 billion cans a year, according to a company spokesperson.
