The objective of this project is to reduce perfluorocarbon emissions by decreasing the frequency and duration of  anode effects (AEF/AED) as the result of implementing various engineering and organisational measures (implement a process control system at the obsolete BT potline horizontal stud Soderbergs (HSS)) to be specially provided for this purpose within the implementation at Novokuznetsk aluminium smelter since the beginning of 2003, as well as of a number of organisational measures regarding the Spotline in 2010, 2011 aimed at reducing both the duration and frequency of the anode effect (AE).
Current status of the project Operational
Total verified emission reductions 0.0 t CO2 equivalent
