GASSMAKS-Økt verdiskaping fra naturgass

Gas Anode for Metal Electrowinning

Consumable carbon anodes are presently used in the aluminium production process, resulting in more than 1.5 tons of CO2 gas per ton of aluminium. Attempts have been made to use ceramic, cermet, or metal based inert oxygen evolving anodes to avoid the gree nhouse emissions of CO2, however, having ...
