    摘要: A method for producing metal by electrolysis in a molten salt bath containing superimposed electrodes, at least one of which is a bipolar electrode. The arrangement of the electrodes creates interelectrode spaces between them. Bath is swept through these interelectrode spaces. This method is improved by providing circulation of the bath from one interelectrode space to the next at a location inwards of the outer peripheries of the electrodes. This can be accomplished e.g. by boring holes through the electrodes. It can also be accomplished by breaking the electrodes into individual, mutually separated stacks of electrodes, the circulation of the improvement then occurring e.g. in the space between the stacks.

    摘要: A process for purifying impure aluminum comprises introducing the impure aluminum to the anode layer of an electrolytic cell of the type having a bottom layer of molten aluminum-copper alloy constituting the anode layer and having a top layer of molten aluminum constituting a cathode layer, the cathode and anode layers separated by an electrolyte layer. Aluminum is electrolytically transported from the anode to the cathode in a first purification step and then fractionally crystallized to remove further impurities therefrom by crystallizing pure aluminum and thereafter separating the molten remaining part, which is high in impurities, from the purified aluminum. The impure molten aluminum portion is then recycled back to the electrolytic cell or to another fractional crystallization step.

Aluminum is electrolytically transported from the anode to the cathode in a first purification step and then treated with a carbonaceous material to remove magnesium therefrom. Thereafter, the treated portion is fractionally crystallized to remove further impurities therefrom by crystallizing pure aluminum and separating the molten remaining part, which is high in impurities, from the purified aluminum. The impure molten aluminum portion is then recycled back to the electrolytic cell or to another fractional crystallization step.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for preparing for operation a cell, having an outer shell and an inner lining, which is employed to produce metal by electrolysis of a compound of the metal in a molten production bath. The method includes placing in the cell an initial bath having a solidus temperature higher than the solidus temperature of the production bath, and higher than the temperature maintained on the inside surface of the shell. Because of this higher solidus temperature, a freeze-line barrier for the initial bath is established within the lining of the cell. Subsequently, electrolysis is carried out in the production bath.
