Hydro’s path to zero

from Dirty Scrap The Aluminum Podcast · host Julio Quintero

Re-melting aluminium into new products requires extremely high temperatures, an energy intensive process which is hard to achieve without fossil energy in the form of natural gas. However, new plasma technology will enable electrification of the process, using the same renewable energy that powers Hydro’s primary smelters. This is a public episode.
