Soderberg Electrode Paste also known as Anode Paste, Self-baking Electrodes Paste or Electrode Carbon Paste is produced from calcined petroleum coke, calcined anthracite, coal tar pitch and other additional materials. It is used as a conductor in submerged arc furnace under a self-baking process.

The Soderberg Electrode Paste is fed into smelting furnaces column in different forms: cylinders, eggs, briquettes and polygonal blocks. The different forms of the paste are moulded together to form different sized electrodes.
