    摘要: The present invention effectively recovers a scandium concentrate from an Al-Sc alloy. This scandium concentrate production method includes: a molten mixture production step (S1) in which an alloy that contains aluminum and scandium is brought into contact with chlorine and melted in order to produce a molten mixture of aluminum chloride and scandium chloride; a first electrolysis step (S2) in which the molten mixture is subjected to first electrolysis using a first cathode at a potential that is between the potential that causes aluminum to form a metal and the potential that causes scandium to form a metal and aluminum is produced around the first cathode; and a second electrolysis step (S3) in which, after a molten aluminum production step, the molten mixture is subjected to second electrolysis using a second electrode at a potential that makes it possible to recover scandium and a scandium concentrate is produced around a second cathode.

    摘要: An electrolytic cell for production of rare earth metals is disclosed. The electrolytic cell includes a cell housing provided with one or more inclined channels disposed in a floor of the cell housing along which channel(s) molten rare earth metals produced in the electrolytic cell can drain. One or more cathodes are suspended within the cell housing in substantially vertical alignment with the one or more channels. Respective opposing surfaces of the one or more cathodes are downwardly and outwardly inclined at an angle from the vertical. One or more pairs of anodes are suspended within the cell housing; each anode in the one or more pairs has a facing surface inclined from the vertical and spaced apart in parallel alignment with respective opposing inclined surfaces of the one or more cathodes to define a substantially constant anode-cathode distance therebetween. The electrolytic cell also includes a sump for receiving molten rare earth metals from the channel, wherein the sump is spaced apart and isolated from the one or more cathodes and the one or more anodes. Separation of the molten rare earth metals from the cathode(s) and the anode(s) prevents reaction and/or contamination with fugitive carbon arising from the anode(s) or back reaction with off gases.
