Abstract

Over the past decades, emission control has consistently been a major issue for the developed, aluminium consuming world. Environmental facilities like Fume Treatment Centres have been retrofitted to paste plants and carbon bake furnaces throughout the world. The emerged countries have seen a great increase in aluminium consumption and for all greenfield smelters, the addition of FTC’s has been mandatory. Danieli Corns’s experience in FTC’s extends from retrofit projects in e.g. the EU and Australia up to LSTK projects in developing countries such as the Middle East and India. This article describes how existing FTC’s have performed over the past decades in terms of environmental performance and maintenance requirement. For recent projects, specific circumstances of execution in greenfield situations are discussed. In addition, developments in FTC technology and future prospects are presented.
