Can Biocoke Address the Anode CO2 Problem (Owing to Petroleum Coke) for Aluminum Production?

4. Your post had me looking up magnesium production, maybe as a way of avoiding the carbon issues.

Known aluminum alloys are generally stronger by weight than magnesium alloys, but that could be changing.

For example "Super-Magnesium" from this marketing site:

(I apologize for the lazy google research.)

Recycling various alloys of aluminum or magnesium is an issue, as I illustrated in my aluminum recycling post:

For recycling, it may be somewhat easier to recover elemental magnesium from alloys than aluminum.
