Applications
A
Cathodic Protection
In modern ICCP-systems, Titanium and Niobium anodes are used. To realise a continuous current electrical conductivity and a long lifetime,
the anodes are applied with a thin layer of Platinum or Keramox® coating.
Frequently seen applications are:
◆ Internal protection of storage tanks, condensers, tank bottoms, pipes, pipelines, heat exchangers and boilers
◆ External protection of pipelines, ship hulls, platforms and other offshore constructions, piers, dams and cooling water inlet parts of power
stations.
Seawater Electrolysis (anti bio-fouling)
The invention of the Titanium anode has been of paramount importance for the electrolysis of seawater. Well known applications are the
prevention of algae growth on ship hulls and oil platforms and in cooling water installations of, for instance, power plants.
Electroplating
In the electroplating industry our oxygen evolving anodes are used for:
◆ Electro galvanising (zinc plating), including steel strip plating
◆ Precious metal plating (gold, silver, palladium, etc.)
◆ (Hard) chromium plating, nickel plating, tin plating
◆ Copper plating, copper foil production and copper foil treatment
◆ Reverse Pulse Plating
◆ Aluminium anodising in liquid-contact-cells.
The principle of metal plating is almost identical for all applications. The metal to be plated is dissolved in the electrolyte and the object to
be plated is cathodically polarised. With the anodically polarised anodes, the electrical loop is closed. The counter reaction in the plating bath
is oxygen evolution at the anode surface.
Water treatment
Our anodes are used in processes such as potable water treatment, treatment of process water and wastewater, but also for recovery and

Hypo chlorite & Disinfection
The availability of Titanium anodes has been a major break-through for the on-site production of hypo chlorite for potable water treatment
and for both private and public swimming pools. The use of Titanium anodes for on-site generation of hypo chlorite is both safer and more
environment friendly than the alternative storage and use of chlorine gas or bulk hypo chlorite. By using Titanium anodes, the use of highly
corrosive and dangerous chemicals, such as hydro chloric acid can be avoided.
Synthesis Reactions
MAGNETO special anodes B.V. started to do research years ago, to search for the possibilities of using special anodes for several
electrochemical synthesis reactions.
At present, anodes are available for several inorganic conversions and oxidation reactions. Some new applications are:
◆ The production of chromic acid
◆ The oxidation of Ce3+ in Ce4+
◆ Hydrogen production by water electrolysis.

Because of a very flexible production facility, we are able to manufacture anodes of all types: sheet, plate, mesh, wire, rod,
tubular or combinations and/or assemblies of these materials. Their size and number vary from several cm2 to 2 m2 and from
1 to 10,000 pieces. The process in which the anodes are used determines size, shape and coating specification of an anode.
Important parameters determining the anode design are:
