The invention relates to the technical field of
aluminum electrolysis, in particular to a comprehensive utilization method of aluminum electrolytic carbon residue. According to the comprehensive utilization method, the aluminum electrolytic waste carbon residue is crushed, screened and ball-milled, then floatation is conducted, water glass is treated as a depressor,
kerosene is treated as a capture agent, and carbon is obtained; an
electrolyte discharged from the bottom of a floatation tank is filtered, and a filter-out material is obtained; a
mixed solution containing HNO3 and Al(NO3)3 is added in the filter-out material, a reaction is conducted under 60-65 DEG C for 1-1.5 h, and a
solid-liquid mixture is obtained; and
solid-liquid separation is conducted on the
solid-liquid mixture, filter residue is obtained, the filter residue is leached with a
high concentration hydrofluoric acid solution, solid-liquid separation is conducted, and AlF3 is obtained. According to the comprehensive utilization method, carbon
powder and the
electrolyte in the aluminum electrolytic wasted carbon residue are effectively separated, and environment
pollution caused by
fluorine emission is avoided. Therecycled carbon
powder and aluminum
fluorine can be returned to be used for
aluminum electrolysis,
raw material consumption of
aluminum electrolysis is lowered, and the environmental benefits and theeconomic benefits are remarkable.
