Problems solved by technology

At present, the structure for reducing the horizontal current of molten aluminum is basically the improvement of the structure of the cathode steel rod itself or the tamping paste. For example, Chinese patent 200710158715. The design and construction of the lining structure of the tank put forward higher requirements, and the current industrial experiment results are not ideal; Chinese patent 200610200265.1 and Chinese patent 201110089796.9 both proposed to reduce the horizontal current by changing the structure of the cathode steel rod, but the change of the steel rod structure will It leads to changes in the stress and electrical conductivity between the steel rod and the carbon block, which brings certain safety and hidden dangers to the life of the tank

Abstract

The invention discloses an aluminum cell side conductive cathode structure for reducing a horizontal current of molten aluminum. The horizontal current in the molten aluminum can be greatly reduced through installing and using a horizontal or inclined conductive side cathode steel rod. A structure parameter of a cathode is determined according to an actual cell type design, the horizontal current in the molten aluminum can be remarkably reduced when the cathode is applied to the aluminum cell, the distribution of the horizontal current in the molten aluminum is optimized and the cathode voltage drop is reduced, thus the functions of weakening the vertical fluctuation of the molten aluminum and stabilizing the horizontal movement of the molten aluminum are achieved so that an electrolysis can be stably carried out at a low voltage, and the energy consumption is greatly reduced. The aluminum cell side conductive cathode structure is convenient and simple to process, easy to realize, low in cost and little in influence on service life of an inner linear of the cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an aluminum electrolytic cell, in particular to a conductive cathode structure at the side of the aluminum electrolytic cell for reducing the horizontal current of the aluminum liquid. Background technique [0002] The Hall-Héroult aluminum electrolysis process has been the only economically viable method for industrial aluminum smelting since its inception more than 100 years ago. In this process, the current flows through the aluminum guide rod, anode steel claw, anode, electrolyte, aluminum liquid, cathode carbon block, steel rod and busbar system in sequence. A 90-degree turn occurs in the block and the cathode steel rod, and since the resistance of the aluminum liquid is much smaller than that of the cathode carbon block, a large part of the deflection of the current occurs in the aluminum liquid layer, resulting in the horizontal current component in the aluminum liquid. produce. The horizontal current not only signific...
