  • Abstract
    FMC of Canada Limited built a chlor-alkali plant at Squamish, BC, Canada in 1966. The plant design featured the use of DeNora mercury cells and an outdoor cell room. The plant management has implemented a number of changes over the years which increased production capacity by 25 percent, substantially reduced the emission of pollutants, improved power and energy efficiency, and increased the availability of the plant. Further improvements to plant operation are foreseen.
