Air Emissions Permit Renewal for Axens Alumina Plant - Brockville
Official title: Axens Canada Specialty Aluminas Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (air)
A specialty alumina manufacturer in Brockville wants to renew its air emissions permit. The facility produces activated alumina products and releases nitrogen oxides, aluminum oxide, particulate matter, and other emissions. This renewal would allow continued operations with some flexibility to modify processes within set limits.
