Alcoa 2019 Annual Report 1 2019 ANNUAL REPORT 74384.indd 1 3/13/20 1:04 PM Bauxite Alcoa is among the world’s largest bauxite producers, and we operate with effi cient and sustainable mining practices, including environmental management through biodiversity initiatives and stakeholder engagement. With ownership in seven active bauxite mines globally, we maintain a fi rst-quartile cost position with reserves located near strategic markets, supplying both our own internal refi nery system and third-party customers. In 2019, this segment set annual production records. PRODUCTION: 47.4 million dry metric tons TOTAL SHIPMENTS: 47.6 million dry metric tons 3RD-PARTY SHIPMENTS: 6.2 million dry metric tons TOTAL REVENUE: $1.3 billion ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN: 39.5% Alumina We are the world’s largest alumina producer outside of China and maintain a fi rst quartile cost position. We have a competitive advantage due to our proprietary technology, process automation, and a highly skilled workforce. Our refi neries use high-quality bauxite, enabling peak effi ciency. Most of our alumina is sold to external customers for metallurgical applications. In 2019, this segment set annual production records. PRODUCTION: 13.3 million metric tons TOTAL SHIPMENTS: 13.5 million metric tons 3RD-PARTY SHIPMENTS: 9.5 million metric tons TOTAL REVENUE: $4.8 billion ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN: 22.8% Aluminum Our aluminum portfolio is comprised of smelting, casting, rolling, and energy assets, and is focused on being competitive through all market cycles. Most of our smelters are powered by renewable, hydro-electric generation under long-term contracts. We produce a variety of products, including value-added castings in diverse shapes and alloys, many of which were developed and patented by Alcoa.

The inscription reads: “On February 23, 1886, in his woodshed laboratory at the family home on East College Street, Charles Martin Hall succeeded in producing aluminum metal by passing an elec - tric current through a solution of aluminum oxide in molten cryolite. Aluminum was a semiprecious metal before Hall’s discovery of this economical method to release it from its ore. His invention, which made this light, lustrous, and nonrust - ing metal readily available, was the basis of the aluminum industry in North America.” Acknowledgments: The American Chemical Society gratefully acknowledges the assistance of those who helped prepare this booklet, including: Norman C.

  • Department of Justice Will Require a Divestiture If Alcan Inc. Completes Its Pending Tender Offer for Pechiney S.A
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AT MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2003 (202) 514-2007 WWW.USDOJ.GOV TDD (202) 514-1888 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WILL REQUIRE A DIVESTITURE IF ALCAN INC. COMPLETES ITS PENDING TENDER OFFER FOR PECHINEY S.A. Sale of Pechiney’s Ravenswood, West Virginia, Aluminum Rolling Mill and Related Assets Will Preserve Competition in the North American Market for Brazing Sheet WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Department of Justice reached a settlement today with Alcan Inc. that requires Alcan to divest Pechiney S.A.’s aluminum rolling mill in Ravenswood, West Virginia, if Alcan’s pending $4.6 billion tender offer for Pechiney is successful. The tender offer, publicly announced in early July and recently endorsed by Pechiney’s board of directors, is expected to be completed in late November 2003. The Department said that the acquisition, as originally proposed, would substantially lessen competition in the development, production, and sale of brazing sheet, an aluminum alloy used in fabricating radiators, oil coolers, heaters, and air conditioning units for motor vehicles, and would likely result in higher prices. The Department’s Antitrust Division filed a lawsuit today in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. to block the original transaction. At the same time, the Department filed a proposed consent decree that, if approved by the court, would resolve the Department's competitive concerns and the lawsuit. “The divestiture of Pechiney’s Ravenswood mill will preserve competition for brazing sheet sold in North America, and will allow motor vehicle parts manufacturers to benefit from Alcan’s aggressive competition,” said R. Hewitt Pate, Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Department’s Antitrust Division.

  • Hydropower in Central North Carolina: the Battle for the Yadkin
    Hydropower in Central North Carolina: The Battle for the Yadkin Eric Anderson Introduction Alcoa and North Carolina have been locked in a licensing dispute for the better part of a decade. At stake is control over a 38-mile segment of the Yadkin River, four dams, and the profits earned by selling the electricity generated by those dams. Alcoa is seeking renewal of its operating license for its four dams on the Yadkin River. In 1958, the Federal Power Commission granted Alcoa a 50-year operating license for the dams. At the time, Alcoa was a major employer in Stanly County where it operated an aluminum smelting complex. That smelting complex is now closed and Alcoa is no longer a major employer in North Carolina. The state does not support allowing Alcoa to operate these dams for 50 more years without substantial economic benefits flowing back to the people of North Carolina in return. The dispute raises issues of private property rights, ownership of submerged land, management of public waterways for the public benefit, and the obligations owed by private corporations to the public in exchange for the use of a public resource like the Yadkin River. This last issue is of particular significance when a corporation moves its operations from one location to another, yet continues to benefit from a public resource in its former location. This is the context in which the dispute between Alcoa and North Carolina arises. History of Yadkin Dams Alcoa began development of its Badin, NC operations in 1915 by purchasing an unfinished aluminum smelting complex.1 By 1917, a dam constructed over the Yadkin River adjacent to the Badin Works at a location known as the Narrows powered the aluminum 1 Alcoa-Yadkin History, ALCOA, http://www.alcoa.com/yadkin/en/info_page/history.asp (last visited Jan.

  • Chapter 57 – Smelter Wastes and Cleanups
    Chapter 57 Smelter wastes and cleanups The Columbia Falls Aluminum Co. plant site, like other heavy industrial sites, was impacted by the typical variety of hazardous chemicals used by maintenance and production personnel or created as a result of process operations. The large number of vehicles necessitated a maintenance garage and fuel tanks, some located underground, which over the years generated daily waste or spills that contained solvents, lubricants, diesel fuel and gasoline. The vast array of mechanical processing equipment – from crushers, shakers and feed belts to pollution-control equipment, casting equipment and overhead cranes – likewise required maintenance crews and repair facilities that generated similar waste over the years. The 600 reduction pots required periodic rebuilds over their lifespan. Equipment maintenance and process operations also were responsible for producing heavy metals. The large transformers and other electrical equipment were a source for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Asbestos was used to insulate exhaust fues and steam pipes, as well as a binder in roofng material and fooring tile. 1 In addition to the typical hazardous chemicals found at many industrial sites were the chemicals associated with the aluminum smelting process – including coal, coke and coal tar pitch used to make carbon paste briquettes and a source of emissions from open-topped Soderberg anodes; fuoride compounds used to make bath and emitted by reduction pots in pot gases or fugitive emissions in potrooms and by crushing and handling frozen bath; dross produced by casting furnaces and operations; and spent potliner created in cathode pot bottoms. Spent potliner at aluminum smelters consisted of refractory brick, cathode electrodes and carbon paste which contained various hazardous compounds created after years of pot use, including ammonia and cyanide.
