I work at Wagstaff here in Spokane Washington, I remember designing that billet table! It has our old flowmeters on it but we now have Flo-M which many find better to cast with. Nice video!

Thank your sir. Do they used used copper wire for anode supply.? What was current supply and current density of anode and cathode? Can we use any materail with minimum possible dia with high current carrying ability. As we use almost 30-40 copper wires 2 inch dia for anode supply. Its very difficult to handle them.

Cathode tub is of mild steel or any other? Can we use any other material than graphite as an anode?

@@Ismail-dy1wt "cathode tub" im assuming you are meaning pot shell. Usually constructed from carbon steel plate. Anodes are usually constructed using a mixture of coal tar pitch and petroleum coke.

Back in the day when we used to make aluminum we got some pretty good ore bugers from all the ore dust floating around the potrooms. I am sure that was not so good for us but back then corporate didn't care about dust masks or respirators or any of that! That didn't come along until the early 90's! However I am still alive and breathing ok so I guess things worked out ok!

@ do you own a Cold ROlling Mill and other strip process lines, are you still using Rubber Rolls, Vacuum Rolls, Compressed Air -Air Knife Systems for removing, wiping, drying of the Strips, Sheets and Foils being processed on Cold Rolling Mills, Pickling Lines, Degreasing Lines, Skin Pass Mills. Try using the High Performance Adaptive Wiping System, no requiremnt of Electricity, Vacuum, Compressed Air, Rubber Rolls, our innovative design uses the science in a different manner to wipe, dry the passing strips wihout using any energy.

What is the salary of the electrolyzer?
@jensandersen71705 жыл бұрын
I suppose you're thinking about electrolysis operator? The salary depends on which country and which electrolysis operator job. Usually the shift schedule changes the salary as some jobs need to be done 24/7 all year, while other jobs can be done mon-fri daytime. Nights and weekends are paid more than daytime. In Norway and Sweden all aluminum plants have trade/labor unions. The plants follow the collective agreement negotiated between the union and employer on a national level. The collective agreements are usually found online and includes the salary, at least for Norway.

What is the rate of corporate tax paid by industry's like yours in Sweden.
@jensandersen71705 жыл бұрын
Slightly more than 20 %. Usually the survival of industry like this are determined by the price for electricity rather than the tax level. Norway and Sweden have an extra fee for electricity which the industry does not have to pay. This basically works as a tax relief for some major industries. Particular those that demand a lot of electricity, like aluminum production.
