Abstract

The invention relates to a method for volatilizing and removing fluoride from an aluminum electrolytic cell waste carbon material and belongs to the technical field of proposal and utilization of hazardous substances produced in the aluminum electrolytic process. The aluminum electrolytic cell waste carbon material containing fluorinated salt is crushed to 0.3-5mm, and an asphalt adhesive occupying one percent by mass of a powder material is added into the powder material which is smaller than 0.3mm so as to prepare 0.5-1mm pellets. The obtained material is introduced into wet air containing water, and is volatilized at 750-1100 DEG C for 1-2h so as to obtain volatile smoke containing fluorinated salt. The volatile smoke containing the fluorinated salt is blown into the air and burnt at 700-1050 DEG C, CO and HCN are thoroughly burnt, the burnt volatile smoke containing the fluorinated salt is cooled to a room temperature and then connected with a purifying device so as to obtain fluorinated alumina, the fluorinated alumina is used for aluminum electrolysis production, and the purified gas meets national GB28661-2012 emission requirements. The method for volatilizing and removing the fluorinated salt through utilizing the wet air containing water as carrying gas, provided by the invention, realizes the purpose of removing the fluorinated salt from a spent potliner carbon block containing the fluorinated salt.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for volatilization and defluorination of waste carbon materials in an aluminum electrolysis cell, and belongs to the technical field of disposal and utilization of hazardous substances produced in the aluminum electrolysis process. Background technique [0002] The initial main materials for the lining of aluminum electrolytic cells are carbonaceous materials, alumina and mullite. During the production process of aluminum electrolysis, due to the penetration and corrosion of the lining material by the electrolyte at high temperature, the lining structure of the electrolytic cell will be deformed or broken, and the aluminum liquid and electrolyte in the electrolytic cell will leak from the cracks. In severe cases, production must be stopped and carried out overhaul. Generally, the electrolyzer needs to be overhauled after 3 to 6 years of use. Overhaul is to take out all the lining material, that is, the waste tank lin...
