| Polyramix provides many benefits in diaphragm cells and a key
feature is the product carries reduced liability since it is not
hazardous. In addition, disposal costs can be saved which can run
$60-115 per diaphragm annually. The PMX™ diaphragm lasts up to 5
times longer than an asbestos-containing diaphragm. |
Diaphragm depositing utilizes the same equipment as conventional
polymer modified diaphragms
|
|
| |
With it’s reduced power consumption; PMX™ diaphragms
can extend the life of diaphragm cell plants. Removal is
easy and disposal of the material poses no environmental
hazards.
De Nora is also working on several modifications that could
dramatically extend the life of the diaphragm that would
improve the economics for diaphragm plants.
|
|
Polyramix diaphragms last three times longer than polymer modified
diaphragms and use less power.
|
| De Nora is constantly evaluating new formulations
that could provide significant economic benefit to many of the
diaphragm plants using asbestos containing separators. This becomes
more beneficial as energy prices become higher which assist plants
in cash margin. |
