Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of carbon powder recovery equipment in aluminum electrolysis carbon slag, and in particular relates to a device for extracting carbon powder from aluminum electrolysis carbon slag. Background Art
[0002] In the process of electrolytic production of metallic aluminum, the generation of carbon slag is inevitable. The reasons for the generation of carbon slag are: (1) uneven combustion and selective oxidation of the carbon anode lead to the shedding of carbon particles; (2) carbon cathode produces carbon particles peeling off under the erosion and scouring of aluminum liquid and electrolyte; (3) secondary reactions in the electrolysis process generate free solid carbon; (4) mechanical losses caused by improper operation. Among them, (1) is the main reason for the generation of carbon slag.
[0003] According to statistics, about 5 kg to 15 kg of carbon slag is discharged for every ton of primary aluminum produced. Due to the immersion and penetration of electrolytes, the electrolyte content in carbon slag is very high, accounting for about 60% to 70% of the weight of carbon slag. Its main components are cryolite, sub-cryolite, a small amount of aluminum oxide and calcium fluoride.
[0004] Since fluoride salts need to be added during the aluminum electrolysis production process, part of the fluoride enters the atmosphere in gaseous form, and the other part remains in the electrolytic cell. Therefore, the concentration of fluoride in the electrolytic cell carbon slag after leaching is very high and highly alkaline. This waste slag is very harmful to the environment. If it is not properly disposed of, it will pollute the soil and groundwater.
[0005] Moreover, in the existing treatment methods for carbon slag produced by aluminum electrolysis, the fixed carbon content of carbon powder is low and the ash content is high, which makes it difficult to meet more usage requirements. Summary of the invention
