Carbon Anode Scrap
Carbon Anode Scrap (CAS) is a by-product generated during the aluminium electrolysis process when residual pieces of prebaked carbon anodes remain after their useful lifecycle in the reduction cell. These remnants retain high levels of fixed carbon, low ash content, and excellent electrical conductivity, making them a valuable secondary raw material in various metallurgical applications.
Carbon Anode Scrap is widely used as a carbon additive and fuel in industries such as steelmaking, foundries, and ferroalloy production. It helps control carbon content, improve metallurgical properties, and reduce overall production costs. Depending on the processing method, CAS can be supplied in different grades, sizes, and purity levels to match specific industrial needs.
Applications include:
Carbon additive in steel and ferroalloy production
Smelting and refining operations
Fuel for rotary kilns and furnaces
