    摘要: The present description relates to an anode arrangement for use in an electrolysis production of metals comprising an anode having a hollow body comprising a cavity, the body having at least one gas outlet connected in flow communication with the cavity. A gas inlet is connected in fluid flow communication with the cavity of the anode, the gas inlet being connectable to a source of hydrogen gas for feeding hydrogen gas into the cavity of the anode. The anode arrangement also comprises an electrical connector and a hydrogen chloride (HCl) recuperator surrounding at least a portion of the anode for recovering HCl gas released through the at least one gas outlet at an outer surface of the anode during electrolysis.

    摘要: It is provided a process of producing amorphous silica from a raw material, such as serpentine, containing silica comprising the steps of mixing the raw material with a hydrochloric acid solution; leaching the raw material obtaining a slurry comprising a liquid fraction and a solid fraction containing silica and minerals; separating the liquid fraction and the solid fraction; removing the minerals from the solid fraction by magnetic separation producing a purified solid silica; drying the purified solid silica; and heating the purified solid silica to remove hydroxyl groups from the silica surface and reducing specific surface area of the resulting amorphous silica.
