“Everyone involved in the revamp did a splendid job”

摘要

Beginning of 2016, as part of a comprehensive modernization project Riedhammer GmbH in Nuremberg, Germany, reconstructed the Anode Baking Furnace No. 3 at Aluminium Bahrain (Alba). The reconstruction took place between March and June, in only 100 days, which for an anode furnace with 68 sections was a very demanding task. In a talk with this journal Thomas Janousch, head of the Carbon business at Riedhammer, explains the jobs and challenges entailed in order to implement this turnkey project, which included engineering, delivery of materials, the execution of the construction work, the adaptation of the existing firing system and the supervision of construction including HSE management procedures.
