What is it about?
Electrochemical reduction of solid metal oxides in MgCl2 based molten salts in which carbon anode remains stable.

Why is it important?
This is potentially a low energy and low emission process for metal extraction.
Perspectives
Porosity of the metal oxide precursor on the cathode is the key technical parameter.
