Description

A kind of aluminium cell of embedded with stud bumps on upper surface of cathode block
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of aluminum electrolysis, particularly a kind of aluminium cell of embedded with stud bumps on upper surface of cathode block.
Background technology
At present, industrial fine aluminium is to produce with the method for sodium aluminum fluoride-aluminum oxide fused salt electrolysis, and the anode of used electrolyzer is to be combined by the anode block that after-smithing petroleum coke is produced.The negative electrode of electrolyzer also is that the carbon piece assembles, and each cathode block bottom of electrolyzer is equipped with rod iron, and the two ends of rod iron stretch out in two sides of electrolyzer, and are connected with negative busbar, bond with charcoal element paste between cathode block and the cathode block.
At present industrial used aluminium electrolysis cell cathode carbon block mostly is that hard coal after the high-temperature calcination makes, for electroconductibility and anti-sodium and the electrolytical corrosion function that increases cathode block, also in the batching of the electric calcined anthracite carbon piece that uses widely, add synthetic graphite.The content of synthetic graphite generally account for whole cathode block aggregate batching 30~50%, be referred to as the cathode block of semi-graphite; Also useful full graphite matter carbon piece, so-called full graphite cathode carbon block be exactly the skeletal grain material batching (comprising powder-granule material) of making cathode block be 100% synthetic graphite.In addition, for the function that makes cathode block have less resistance and better anti-sodium and electrolyte corrosion has less cathode drop and the cell life of Geng Gao with the negative electrode that can make electrolyzer, the electrolyzer of many comparatively large capacities is also brought into use graphitization cathode carbon block or the semi-graphited cathode block of being made by refinery coke fully.After but the cathode block of aluminium cell uses semi-graphite, graphite matter and graphited cathode block, along with the increase of synthetic graphite component concentration in the cathode block, in its intensity and the anti-electrolyzer aluminium liquid wash away and the abrasion ability also worse and worse.
2007, Northeastern University's Feng Naixiang was invented a kind of special-shaped cathode structure aluminum electrolysis bath, and the characteristics of this cathode construction aluminium cell are that the cathode block surface is with bulge-structure.This bulge-structure has and greatly reduces flow rate of aluminium liquid and reduce metal wave, increase the stable function of electrolyzer aluminium liquid, thereby so that the bath voltage of electrolyzer reduces greatly, current efficiency has also had further raising, has obtained the effect that greatly reduces the aluminium cell power consumption.
The special-shaped cathode structure aluminum electrolysis bath, it is the ability that the projection on the cathode block of electrolyzer must have reasonable antikathode aluminium liquid to wash away that important technology of its negative electrode is required, traditional calcined anthracite is that the cathode block of main raw has the ability that stronger antikathode aluminium liquid washes away, the practice of special-shaped cathode structure electrolysis groove produced in series shows, cathode surface has the smokeless coal piece that contains 30% synthetic graphite of bulge-structure, the consumption of projection can be reduced to 10mm/ on its cathode surface, and the height of cathode bulging has 110mm, so the bulge-structure that its cathode block surface take hard coal as main aggregate materials making has can satisfy the requirement of aluminium cell to the life-span of its cathode block projection.
Yet for the graphite cathode carbon block take synthetic graphite as main aggregate materials, or graphitization cathode carbon block, the ability that its anti-aluminium liquid washes away will can not show a candle to the cathode block take hard coal as main aggregate materials, the ability that its anti-aluminium liquid washes away, and the latter is the former several times.Therefore, the cathode block that its surface that turns to material with graphite matter or graphite has bulge-structure can not satisfy the requirement of special-shaped cathode structure electrolysis groove to its cathode surface projection life-span well.In addition, its surface has the aluminium electrolysis cell cathode carbon block with the perpendicular lateral projection structure of the longitudinal direction of cathode carbon block of electrolytic bath, and not only amount of finish is large, and the consumption of its material is large, therefore materials cost and cost process cost are increased, production cost is higher.
