Rio trials new technology at Alma smelter
Major Rio Tinto’s Alma smelter, in Quebec, has been tapped for the first installation and demonstration of an inert anode technology developed by the ELYSIS joint venture (JV), at a commercial size.
The demonstration plant would have a capacity of 450 kiloamperes (kA), which is a common capacity for modern, full-scale smelters.
