Abstract
This study assesses the likelihood of new process technology and new practices being introduced by energy intensive industries and explores the environmental impacts of such changes. Volume 12 examines options in the chlor-alkali industry relating to diaphragm and mercury cell technology, including dimensionally stable anodes, ion-exchange membranes and stabilized asbestos diaphragms in terms of relative process economics and environmental/energy consequences.
