Plasma carbon from natural gas to aluminium anodes
Globally 20.000 kt/year of carbon anodes are consumed in the processing of alumina, 450 kt/year in Norway. If 5 - 15 % of the carbon in the anode is made from natural gas with microwave plasma technology, the performance of the carbon anodes can be improv ed (density, conductivity, permeability, ...
