what do you know about Industrial redox reaction?

Cathodic protection is a method of controlling corrosion on a metal surface by converting it into the cathode of an electrochemical cell. A straightforward method of protection involves connecting protected metal to a more easily corroded "sacrificial anode" to serve as the anode. The sacrificial metal, rather than the protected metal, corrodes. Galvanized steel is a common application of cathodic protection, in which a sacrificial zinc coating on steel parts protects them from rust. 

Oxidation is used in a wide range of industries, including the manufacture of cleaning products and the oxidation of ammonia to produce nitric acid.
