Separation of Aluminum from More Noble Elements in an Electrolysis Cell with Side-by-Side Geometry
https://www.sintef.no/en/publications/publication/1901455/
Silicon-nitride bonded SiC sidelining materials are today the state of the art in modern prebake aluminium cells. SINTEF started in early1990's procedures for performing relevant test methods and quality evaluations of the different commercial materials available on the market. The test methods...
Overview of refractory materials used in Al electrolysis is given. Laboratory test methods. ...
The current efficiency (CE) in aluminium cells is governed by transport of dissolved metal (mainly sodium) across the boundary layer at the cathode. The transport takes place by ordinary mass transfer, but since solutions of alkali metals and their salts show electronic conductivity, the CE is also...
