Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of electrolysis, particularly relates to a method for electrically converting aluminum chloride into aluminum oxide, and aims at obtaining metallurgy-level aluminum oxide or chemical aluminum oxide products in short process at low energy consumption by means of wide aluminum chloride resources so as to avoid or solve the problems that in the prior art, energy consumption is high, the cost is high, and pollution is severe. According to the electrolysis method, aluminum chloride can be directly converted into aluminum compound precipitates, and an electrolysis technology is high in automation degree and short in process. Compared with a traditional aluminum oxide preparation method, the method has the advantages that the evaporation and concentration process and equipment thereof are omitted, therefore, the production cost can be reduced, and the production efficiency can be improved; aluminum oxide is produced through the electrolysis technology, the purity of by-products including chlorine and hydrogen in the production process is high, the by-products can be directly dried and utilized, electrolyte is recycled after being filtered, no pollution product is generated in the process, and environmental friendliness and harmlessness are achieved; metallurgy-level aluminum oxide or chemical aluminum oxide is obtained by roasting the aluminum compounds obtained through electrolysis, and the obtained product is high in purity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrolysis, and in particular relates to a method for electroconverting aluminum chloride into alumina. 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; the...
