In the development of a refractory brick many questions play an important part, such as Is the brick able to withstand the chemicals it will come into contact with and How temperature resistant is the brick In the aluminium production described above bricks come into contact with liquid aluminium at high temperatures. By means of the aluminium cup test you can determine whether or not this contact runs smoothly. A cylindrical cavity is drilled into the brick and filled with liquid aluminium. Next both components are allowed to interact. As you can see in the photographs the material in question is not suitable. The phase rule is an excellent aid in answering the second question, as can be concluded from the phase diagram of the system Si02 / A1203 in figure 11.3.3)... 

The 2003 annual dioxin/furan release to the atmosphere was 2.61 g TEQ. The relative contribution of different source categories to total air emission is shown in Fig. 7.2c. The top four contributing classes of local emission sources were (a) coal fired power boilers plants (45.3%) (b) crematoria (13.4%) (c) aluminium production (secondary) (10.3%) and (d) accidental fires—houses, factories and vehicles (9.6%). These...

COFj (along with CF ) is evolved during the anode effect in industrial aluminium production by the electrolysis of bauxite in molten cryolite, Na 3[A1F g] at a graphitic electrode [66,842], and this has also been detected in fast cyclic voltammetric studies of solutions of AljOg in Na3[AlFg] [1031b]. 

In 1963 Dr. Danbk joined the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava, of which he was the director in the period 1991-1995. His main field of interest was the physical chemistry of molten salts systems in particular the study of the relations between the composition, properties, and structure of inorganic melts. He developed a method to measure the electrical conductivity of molten fluorides. He proposed the thermodynamic model of silicate melts and applied it to a number of two- and three-component silicate systems. He also developed the dissociation model of molten salts mixtures and applied it to different types of inorganic systems. More recently his work was in the field of chemical synthesis of double oxides from fused salts and the investigation of the physicochemical properties of molten systems of interest as electrolytes for the electrochemical deposition of metals from natural minerals, molybdenum, the synthesis of transition metal borides, and for aluminium production. 

Water consumption a no score has been awarded since no group-wide figures for water consumption are reported. Figures of 304 and 38.9 million m3 are, however, given for use in the Agri division and aluminium production, respectively.

Hafslund was very much the achievement of the Norwegian engineer Knud Bryn, who led the company from its inception until he retired in 1928. Bryn originally intended to start aluminium production in 1895, and had close contacts with the American aluminium company Pittsburgh Reduction. But in the end Pittsburgh and the Swiss aluminium company at Schaffhausen made a deal to keep Hafslund out of this business. Bryn then used his German connection Schuckert - he had been their... 

The preparations for war hastened the growth of Italian production, which outpaced the international trend in growth. Between 1931 and 1941 Italy s primary aluminium output hovered around 5 per cent of world production. Subsequently, when production grew in many countries as a result of the war effort, Italy s share settled down at 2 per cent. After 1950 the growth rate of Italian aluminium production continued to keep pace with world production, and in the new context of European markets it managed to hold a fairly important position, at least in the sector of alumina. Until the start-up of the Sardinian aluminium pool in the 1970s, this development depended upon the experience and structures that had been created in the inter-war period.

The polypropylene arm of a folding garden chair is an example of a product which collapsed by a combination of elastic deformation and yielding. The L-section beam, probably copied from an aluminium product, was intended to provide adequate bending stiffness. When a load was applied to the centre of the arm, the arm both twisted and bend, and the lower part of the L deformed plastically. Figure. 8.9 shows an FEA prediction of the deformation and the yielded region. 

Aluminium Production. Primary aluminium production is based on two different technologies basically using Soderberg or prebaked anodes. PAH are emitted from the carbon electrodes containing tar and pitch as binder (22). The emissions from the prebaked electrodes are usually 1-10% of that of the Soderberg electrodes.
