Installation and Maintenance of Magnesium Anodes


  The magnesium anode features a compact structure, low membrane resistance, low power consumption, high penetration rate, large membrane area per unit, long service life, and convenient maintenance and management. Due to its small size and light weight, it can be installed on the side, bottom, or top of the electrophoresis tank to meet the requirements of different coating processes. Conductive Magnesium anode It is primarily used as the anode assembly for wet electrostatic precipitators and electrostatic tar collectors. The magnesium rod anodes employed in wet electrostatic precipitators (for mist collection) are typically hexagonal, with a tangential diameter of 250 mm to 400 mm, a length of 6 meters, and a wall thickness of approximately 3 mm. Each magnesium rod anode consists of multiple hexagonal tubes that form the collecting electrode. The number of magnesium rod anodes can be customized according to customer requirements, and the complete module assembly process includes the fabrication of end flanges and external reinforcement, among other steps.

   Why is the magnesium anode rod easy to install?

  1. Magnesium anode Easy to install, ensuring stable interconnection and electrical conductivity among all modules.

  2. The inner wall of the magnesium anode rod is smooth and even, easy to clean, and free from defects such as cracks, delamination, and pinholes that could impair its performance.

  3. The magnesium anode rod features a flat end face, with no deviation in diameter or length; it exhibits high tensile strength, excellent wear resistance, superior corrosion resistance, dimensional stability at elevated temperatures, and a long service life. Moreover, the alloy steel material is recyclable for secondary use.

  4. The magnesium anode rod is easy to maintain and clean.

  Alloy steel pipes are assembled and manufactured using automated welding technology. The upper portion of the module features a double-layer alloy steel flange, while the midsection is reinforced with alloy steel stiffening plates to ensure that the welded joints never delaminate or fracture. The dimensions, thickness, and density of the ribbed flanges are designed and fabricated in strict accordance with the requirements specified in the purchaser’s drawings.

Due to their small size and light weight, they can be installed on the side, bottom, or top of electrophoresis tanks to meet the requirements of different coating processes. Magnesium rod anodes are more resistant to sulfide corrosion, allowing for a wider selection of metallic materials. The removal efficiency for particulate matter such as PM2.5 ranges from 85% to 95%; dust emissions at the chimney outlet can meet standards of 20 mg/Nm³ or lower; the removal rate for SO₃ acid mist is 85% to 99%, significantly reducing the corrosivity of wet flue gas emitted from the chimney. Droplet removal efficiency is 70% to 90%, and there is also induced reduction in pollutants such as heavy metals. This technology can enhance the cleanliness of flue gas emissions and effectively address gypsum rain and white smoke. When integrated with flue gas desulfurization systems, WESP offers simple construction and retrofitting processes, a compact design, and a small footprint.
