Description

Verfahren zur Gewinnung von Aluminium durch Schmelzflußelektrolyse Bei der elektrolytischen Verarbeitung von calcinierter Tonerde auf metallisches Aluminium in den bekannten Schmelzflußbädern werden nicht nur an die chemischen, sondern auch an die physikalischen Eigenschaften des Ausgangsmaterials bestimmte Anforderungen gestellt. Die Tonerde soll vor allem nicht zu leicht sein, d. h. sie soll ein Litergewicht von nicht unter etwa x,o haben, sie soll wenig stauben und beim Eintragen in das Bad, ohne harte Krusten zu bilden, stets locker auf der Schmelze aufliegen und sich ohne besonderes Zutun allmählich auflösen. Eine zu feine und spezifisch zu leichte Tonerde dagegen legt sich fest auf die Badoberfläche auf unter Bildung von harten Krusten, die häufig aufgemeißelt werden müssen, hierbei zu Boden sinken und sich schlecht in dem Bade auflösen.Process for the production of aluminum by molten electrolysis In the electrolytic processing of calcined alumina on metallic Aluminum in the well-known melt flow baths are not only affected by the chemical, but also to the physical properties of the starting material Requirements. Above all, the clay should not be too light; H. she should have a liter weight of not less than about x, o, it should generate little dust and when entering the bath, without forming hard crusts, always loosely on the melt and gradually dissolve without any special intervention. One too fine and Specifically too light alumina, on the other hand, lays firmly on the bath surface Formation of hard crusts, which often have to be chiseled up, on the ground sink and badly dissolve in the bath.

Es ist bekannt, daß bei den bisherigen Tonerdegewinnungsverfahren stets nur ein Teil des calciniertenErzeugnisses das gewünschte Schüttgewicht aufweist und daß der Verbraucher der Tonerde nie Ursache hat, sich über die Lieferung zu schwerer Tonerde zu beklagen.It is known that in the previous alumina recovery process always only a part of the calcined product has the desired bulk density and that the consumer of the clay never has any reason to worry about the delivery heavy clay to complain about.

Es wurde nun durch Versuche gefunden, daß solche für den Bäderbetrieb unmittelbar nicht brauchbare, in ihrer Struktur zu lockere oder zu poröse Tonerde das vom Verbraucher gesuchte höhere Schüttgewicht besitzt, nachdem sie einem besonderen Verdichtungsverfahren unterworfen worden ist. Dieses Verfahren besteht darin, daß man die bei der Calcinierung pseudomorph-kristallin anfallende Tonerde unter Wahrung der Pulverform starker Pressung aussetzt, indem man sie mit Hilfe von geeigneten Vorrichtungen, in denen die Ausübung von Druck mit einem Mahlvorgang verbunden ist, wie Quetschwalzen, Kollergänge, Pressen u. dgl., behandelt. So konnte z. B. calcinierte Tonerde von Schüttgewichten zwischen 0,50 und o,7o auf jedes beliebige Schüttgewicht bis etwa 1,3 gebracht werden.It has now been found through experiments that such alumina which is not directly usable for bathing, is too loose or too porous in its structure has the higher bulk density sought by the consumer after it has been subjected to a special compaction process. This process consists in subjecting the pseudomorphic-crystalline alumina resulting from the calcination to strong pressure while maintaining the powder form by using suitable devices in which the application of pressure is combined with a grinding process, such as nip rolls, pan mills, Presses and the like. So could z. B. calcined alumina of bulk weights between 0.50 and o.7o can be brought to any bulk weight up to about 1.3.
