Siting an Aluminium Processing Plant.

The aluminium atoms collect together, and drop to the bottom of the cell as molten metal.  This is run off at intervals.  

Anode is also made of graphite.  This time the reaction is that at the anodes the oxygen ions give up electrons:

        6O2- → 3O2 +12e-

Oxygen gas bubbles are given off.  But unfortunately it attacks the graphite anodes and eats them away, so they must be replaced from t9ime to time.  

        C +O2 → CO2

There are many uses for aluminium like:

• Tin cans
• Ships
• Cooking foil
• Saucepans
• Racing bikes
• Electricity cables
• TV aerials
• Aeroplanes
• Space rockets

I have examined the three sites and the table below compares them and answers a few questions giving both advantages and disadvantages for each site to see which is the best site for the new processing plant.  

I have examined the three sites and illustrate my findings in the table below, which indicates the benefits and disadvantages for each to see which is the best site for the new processing plant.  and compared

As I said before I feel that site C is the best site for a new processing plant and I have considered both the advantages and disadvantages mentioned in the table above.  I feel Site C comes out best for this purpose providing that the information I included at the begging about how I thought you’d be running the new processing plant is correct.  

Site C has the most advantages and also the least disadvantages, infact there are hardly any disadvantages if any for site C.  

I hope this report has been helpful to you and that you find my advice of some use to the site of your new processing plant.  Good luck for the future of ALCO, and the new processing plant.  

Yours truly,
