Iceland s potential to generate power from hydroelectric dams is also considerable because of the country s large area of mountainous terrain, glacial melt, and reliable precipitation. Hydroelectric plants in the country currently have a capacity of approximately 1,000 mw12 and supply more than 6.8 million Mwh per year of electricity.13 In March 2003, Iceland approved plans for an Alcoa Inc. aluminum smelter and a 630 mw hydroelectric facility to provide power for this very electricity-intensive process.14 This decision has encountered opposition from environmental groups because the resulting reservoir will flood land in an undeveloped wilderness area.

In 1986, CGE, which by then had its primary focus in the energy and communication businesses, divested its association from materials, and sold the ceramic part of Ceraver, including the ceramic membranes division to Alcoa. Under the name SCT it is now a subsidiary of the recently formed Alcoa Separations Technology, Inc.

Activated alumina has been used in chromatographic analysis and separation, and adsorptive separation. The use of activated alumina as an adsorbent in a desulfurization process for low-sulfur gasoline has been reported by Black Veatch Irritchard, Inc. and Alcoa Industrial Chemicals.138,139 As the adsorption on activated alumina is dominantly dependent on the molecular polarity, activated alumina might have relatively lower selectivity for the thiophenic sulfur compounds. 

Alcoa F-20, Aluminum Co. of America) was activated at 200°C for 24 hours and subsequently deactivated by adding 4ml of water per gram of adsorbent under nitrogen. The treated alumina was allowed to stand for 24 hours in a sealed container before use. Alumina and silica gel cartridges (Waters Associates Inc.) were used for purification of the base samples.
