Over the past several years, many aluminum processors in North America have used unique, inherently non-wetting, non-reactive, micro-porous refractory products from Westmoreland Advanced Materials, Inc. to line their melting and holding furnaces, as well as their molten metal transport systems. These manufacturers have experienced significant energy and maintenance cost savings through the use of this unique refractory technology. A review of the technology that was used to develop these unique refractory products, along with specific examples of the energy and maintenance cost savings from several customers are presented.
