Alumina producer Alum Tulcea invested 2.3 million dollars (nearly 2 million euros) this year as part of a programme to comply with environmental standards, agreed upon with the Environment Protection Agency. However, its total investment plan in this regard stands at 9 million euros.
“The investment plans we are considering for Alum focus on two major directions: environmental protection and the improvement of operating performance by retooling the manufacturing process,” said Marian Nastase, the vice-chairman of the Board of Directors of Alro Slatina, the majority shareholder of Alum.
