Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of electrolysis and particularly relates to a method for preparing aluminum oxide by electrolyzing aluminum chloride. The method aims to obtain metallurgical grade aluminum oxide or chemical aluminum oxide products through extensive aluminum chloride with a short process and low energy consumption. An aluminum chloride solution is electrolyzed through a cation membrane electrolytic cell, and mechncial stirring is conducted on an electrolytic cell cathode zone; an electrolyte and aluminum hydroxide are subjected to solid-liquid separation through a filter device, and a filtrate circularly returns to the cathode zone; aluminum hydroxide is obtained by drying filtration products and roasted to obtain metallurgical grade aluminum oxide or chemical aluminum oxide; and anode gas and cathode gas are collected, and by-products of hydrogen and chlorine are obtained. The electrolysis method is adopted for directly converting aluminum chloride into aluminum hydroxide, the electrolysis process is high in automation degree and short in process, the production cost is reduced advantageously, and the production efficiency is improved advantageously.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrolysis, and in particular relates to a method for preparing alumina by electrolyzing aluminum chloride. Background technique [0002] Alumina is a white amorphous powder, insoluble in water, soluble in inorganic acids and alkaline solutions, with a melting point of 2050°C and a boiling point of 2980°C. At present, it is generally believed that alumina mainly has two variants, α-type and γ-type, and γ-Al 2 o 3 It is made by dehydrating aluminum hydroxide at a low temperature of 140-150°C. It is also called activated alumina and aluminum glue in industry. γ-type alumina is insoluble in water, but soluble in strong acid or strong alkali solution, and it will be completely transformed into α-type alumina when heated to 1200°C. [0003] According to different uses, alumina is divided into two categories: one is alumina used as raw material for electrolytic aluminum, called metallurgical grade alumina;...
