Rusal plans to install over 20 Dry Gas Cleaning Systems at its smelters by 2025

RUSAL is planning to install over 20 state-of-the-art dry gas cleaning systems (DGCS) at its smelters by 2025. These advanced systems developed by RUSAL own team will allow the Company to capture over 99.5 % of hydrogen fluoride and solid fluorides. 

The project was launched in 2016 by Rusal. Bratsk aluminium smelter installed another DGCS, developed by the design and scientific divisions of RUSAL-SibVAMI (Irkutsk) and RUSAL ITC (Krasnoyarsk) in October 2019. More DGCS’ are already in operation at the Company’s industrial sites in Shelekhov and Novokuznetsk.

"This project is truly unique thanks to our patented design solutions, enabling RUSAL to complete the switch to utilising our own dry gas cleaning systems as part of our "EcoSoderberg" technology implementation. This innovative new technology outperforms the existing foreign analogues and delivers a superior performance, both in terms of RUSAL's sustainability footprint and overall efficiency characteristics," said Victor Mann, RUSAL’s Technical director.

Rusal plans to install another 17 DGCS’ at the Bratsk, Novokuznetsk and Irkutsk aluminium smelters in a period between 2020 and 2024 as a part of its environmental goals.
