Abstract

En multimonopolar celle for elektrolytisk utvinning av aluminium ved elektrolyse av alumina oppløst i en saltsmelteelektrolytt omfatter elektrodemontasjer som hver har en ikke- forbrukbar anode og en ikke-forbrukbar katode som begge er motstandsdyktige mot angrep fra elektrolytten og fra det respektive elektrolyseprodukt. Anoden (2) har fortrinnsvis rørform med en aktiv anodeflate (7) på innsiden, og katoden er laget av en eller flere stenger (l) eller rør anbragt i midten av den rørformede anode eller mellom plateanoder, idet katoden strekker seg utenfor bunnen av anoden. Det aktive anodeoverflateareal er større enn det mot dette vendte aktive katodeoverflateareal. Under bruk blir elektrodemontasjen delvis neddykket vertikalt eller med en helling i elektrolytten (3) idet katoden dypper ned i et lag (4) av aluminium på cellebunnen. Flytende aluminium dannet under elektrolyse på katodeoverflaten drypper eller flyter nedad til cellens bunn, og oksygen utviklet på anodeoverflaten stiger opp gjennom elektrolytten og unnslipper ved toppen av den rørformede anode. Strømtilførsel til katodestengene foregår fortrinnsvis gjennom cellebunnen og laget (4) av aluminium.A multi-monopolar cell for electrolytic recovery of aluminum by electrolysis of alumina dissolved in a salt-melt electrolyte comprises electrode assemblies, each having a non-consumable anode and a non-consumable cathode, both resistant to attack by the electrolyte and from the respective electrolysis product. The anode (2) preferably has tubular shape with an active anode surface (7) on the inside, and the cathode is made of one or more rods (1) or tubes located in the middle of the tubular anode or between plate anodes, the cathode extending beyond the bottom of the anode . The active anode surface area is larger than that facing this active cathode surface area. In use, the electrode assembly is partially submerged vertically or with an inclination in the electrolyte (3) as the cathode dips into a layer (4) of aluminum on the cell bottom. Liquid aluminum formed during electrolysis on the cathode surface drips or flows down to the bottom of the cell, and oxygen developed on the anode surface rises through the electrolyte and escapes at the top of the tubular anode. Power supply to the cathode rods is preferably conducted through the cell bottom and the layer (4) of aluminum.
