Magnesium Anodes

Magnesium anodes find limited application in seawater but are extensively used in onshore projects for the protection of tanks containing fresh water and buried pipelines where the electrolyte is soil or sand. Magnesium anodes for buried pipelines, casings and similar structures are prepacked either in cotton bags or cardboard cartons.
