Industrial molten magnesium processes primarily utilize sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6) as a cover gas to inhibit surface oxidation, which can result in fires if not controlled. Recent concerns with global warming and subsequent research has determined SF6 to be a potent and long lived greenhouse gas. Current Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Good Practice Guidance for estimating the emissions of SF6 from industrial magnesium processes assumes that 100 percent of the gas utilized for a given process is emitted directly to the atmosphere. This study examined the SF6 utilization for a magnesium die-casting process and determined that, for the specific operating conditions, the level of SF6 destruction was process dependent. Maximum ...
