Where next for China's alumina capacity growth?
Report summary
Will China continue to dominate global alumina capacity growth in the future?

Wood Mackenzie investigates the merits for continued Chinese-based alumina capacity growth against that located in bauxite-rich producer countries on an illustrative cost and cash flow basis.
