“In addition, with this technology we will also produce silica, which among other applications is also used as a filler material in the production of car tires. This would improve the economy of this project in addition to the environmental improvements we will achieve with this technology,” says Brandtzaeg.
他强调说，Hydro使用大量的纯镁作为铝中的合金元素。因此，以合适的价格的安全和长期镁供应对公司很重要。
新合资伙伴关系：Silmag
新技术将通过合资企业Silmag开发，其中Hydro和AMG各自持有50％的份额。
在荷兰成立的AMG是生产高度工程特种金属产品和先进的真空炉系统的全球领导者。该公司通过冶金工程专业知识和生产专业知识的结合，为全球不断发展的行业提供服务。AMG是其许多产品和系统的市场领导者，这对于生产航空航天，能源，电子，光学，化学，化学，建筑和运输行业的关键组成部分至关重要。
In this partnership, Hydro will provide the magnesium technology, which is a further development of the production technology previously used in Porsgrunn and Becancour.
Olivine is a magnesium iron silicate, and one of the most common minerals.
