Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of environmental protection, and in particular relates to a method for comprehensively utilizing waste cathode carbon blocks of aluminum electrolysis. Background technique [0002] Aluminum electrolytic cell waste cathode carbon block is the waste discharged in the aluminum electrolysis industry. According to statistics, about 30-50 kg of waste cathode carbon blocks are discharged for every 1 ton of primary aluminum produced. As the annual production of aluminum worldwide increases, the amount of waste carbon briquettes discharged continues to increase. The main components of the waste cathode carbon block of aluminum electrolytic cell are carbon and electrolyte, in which the carbon content is 45-85% (the degree of graphitization of carbon reaches 80-90%), and the electrolyte content is about 15-55% (the electrolyte is mainly composed of cryolite, Sodium fluoride, aluminum oxide and calcium fluoride, while...
