Product features

The EnvirAnode® is the world's first molecular bonded tertiary energy transfer technology developed expressly for cathodic protection applications, and is behind its stunning performance as a fully operational, environmentally neutral cathodic protection anode. Notable features include:

• The conductive Conducrete® backfill sets up to form a solid, impermeable column that stops water migration and aquifer cross-contamination, a major issue with coke breeze type anode beds.
• The combined volume of the three energy transfer materials, with their inherent protection against water penetration and corrosion give the EnvirAnode® its phenomenal operational lifespan of 2 to 3 times that of traditional CP anode beds.
• Two carbon and one mixed metal oxide (MMO) energy transfer materials, molecularly bonded together into a single CP anodic column.
• The molecular bonding process that ties the active energy materials together results in a highly efficient electronic energy transfer to the soil that provides a stable and predictable electrical performance throughout its operational life.
• The large surface area of the EnvirAnode® lowers the surface energy density, and efficiently manages the normal gas byproducts produced that out-gassing vent pipes are not required.
• The EnvirAnode® even ages differently. The "shelving off" and "end effect" phenomenon associated with traditional anode beds is effectively eliminated, as the CP process slowly depletes carbon from within the energy transfer materials, leaving the column itself intact and impermeable, thus eliminating abandonment costs and environmental pollution risks.

These features add up to unparalleled operational and environmental performance, which creates a compelling business case for EnvirAnode® CP solution even before considering the significantly lower total cost of ownership.
