A report by Bloomberg states that the Chinese firm Sanmenxia Tianyuan Aluminum Co. will increase its aluminum recycling capacity from 50,000 metric tons to 100,000 metric tons by next year.

"Although there is overcapacity for now, aluminum consumption will definitely increase every year," said Xiao Chongxin, deputy general manager of the company said to reporters.
