The invention relates to non-ferrous metallurgy and can be used in the construction of electrolysis baths for the production of aluminum.
The purpose of the invention is to increase the service life of the electrolyzer and operation stability.
Figure 1 shows a known cathode for an aluminum electrolyzer vertical section; Figures 2-21 show embodiments of the proposed cathode.
Figure 1 shows the location of the carbon-cathode block. 1, in which the rod 2 is made with cast iron fill. In this case, the rod is flush with the base of the carbon block.
The rod 2 in the embodiment of FIG. 2 may more or less extend beyond the base plane of the carbon block 3. Serial cathode blocks are most often connected by a carbon paste strip 4. A lining 5 of mild steel sheets is bonded to the rod 2, connected to the base of the carbon cathode block by means of a layer 6 of electrically conductive material.
In the variant (FIG. 3), the backing 5 can be made in the form of a steel-copper compound, while the copper side can be in contact either directly with the carbon cathode block or by means of a layer 6 of elastic material. It is preferable that the thickness of the copper layer exceeds the minimum value, ( i.e. about 5% of the steel layer corresponds to the solubility of copper in steel at 900-950 ° C, however, the entire copper layer should not disappear as a result of diffusion in the solid state in the steel.
The ductility of copper in a heated condition facilitates the establishment of good contact with the cathode block and can, if necessary, partially compensate for the deformations of the steel backing.
In addition, since the electrical conductivity of copper is much higher than the electrical conductivity of steel, therefore, the voltage drop in the cathode collectors significantly decreases.
FIG. 4-7 show the four steps of the method.
The first stage (figure 4). The carbon cathode block 1 is rotated
3497022
Thus, the channel 7 is on top, and the cathode rod is made with cast iron.
g The second stage (figure 5). On the upper surface of the inverted carbon cathode block impose a layer 6 of electrically conductive elastic material - predominantly carbon 10, or graphite felt, or a rolled carbon graphite sheet, or a material formed by gluing a strip of carbon or graphite felt with a rolled grate strip.
The third stage (6). A lining 5 consisting of two thick steel sheets is put on the elastic material layer 6, which is strongly pressed by pressing the elastic material layer 6.
In this case, solid welded seams 8 can be made to join thick sheets with the cathode rod.
25 A lining electrically connected to the cathode rod is thus performed. the lining is 4 mm, preferably at least 10 mm or 10-15 mm. Section
The 30 cathode rod may, for example, be 160x120 mm.
7 shows the cathode carbon block in the normal position after the coup.
In Fig. 8, the lining is located between two cathode carbon blocks in electrical contact with two blocks.
Figure 9 shows that at
40 installation is necessary to provide for the gap between the lining 5
35
two adjacent blocks so that when the normal operating temperature is reached and the lining expands the most with respect to the carbon block, the edges of the two adjacent linings 5 are in contact with sufficient pressure to provide a hot junction of these edges,
without creating an overpressure which can lead to deformation of the linings, adversely affecting the electrical contact between the carbon blocks and the steel linings.
The opposite ends of two adjacent linings 5 can be perpendicular to the plane of the liner and parallel to each other (Figures 10 and 11).
While the sides of the lining 5 may be parallel or non-parallel.
In order to avoid the penetration of powdered materials from the bed into the gap 9 between the cushions 5, it is possible to install the additional cushion 10 in the form of a thin sheet strip. This prevents the carbon paste that fills the gasket 4 from penetrating into the gap 9 during the first heating.
The size of the gap 9 required for installation or installation depends on the exact type of carbon block: on the basis of anthracite, or semi-graphite, or graphite, and on the exact size of blocks and pads, as well as on the type and thickness of the gasket between carbon blocks: glued together or separated by a small gasket 4 of refractory heel. Typically, this gap is determined by the ratio e / t in the order of 1-2%.
In FIG. Figure 12 shows the installation detail — a layer of insulating strips 10. The upper strip, for example, is welded onto the lining 5, and the lower such that during the first heating both can slide freely and take up the final installation location.
In addition, gaskets 4 in the form of graphite parts with a small porosity can be installed in carbon cathode blocks 1, which increases leaktightness and reduces the risk of cryolite melt penetration during the start of the electrolysis bath.
On Fig shows the implementation of the strip between the lining of 5 adjacent cathode blocks. In this case, the direct adhesion between the cushions 5 is refused and the flexible 9 is installed in the gap 9. Preferably, an electrically conductive and compressible gasket, for example, a graphite rope or a metal fine-grained tube (less than half the thickness, thickness of the lining). In addition, during installation, it is possible to provide for coating and gluing sheets of elastic carbonaceous material, which increases the tightness of the gasket.
On Fig the gasket is replaced by a deformable pre-welded to one of the lining 5 tube
11, which absorbs the expansion effect and which can be filled with powdered inert material to limit internal oxidation in the heated state.
15-16, carbon cathode blocks are provided with two parallel cathode rods to increase the contact surface with the carbon block.
Figure 15 shows the simultaneous sealing of two rods by pouring 3, and the thickness (e) of the cast-iron plate between the two rods is less than or equal to the difference of the sides b dI h, (,).
Layer 6 can be made of a simple steel sheet or a mixed steel-copper sheet.
FIG. 16, two cat.odal rods are welded to a pre-deformed sheet 12 in the form of a vault in order to obtain contact with the central part of the carbon block by means of a layer 6 of elastic conductive material.
In all the variants (Figures 2-16), the lining is in contact with the base of the carbon cathode blocks (directly or through layer 6 onto 20% of the surface of the IT base.). 17, a screen 13 is installed under the carbon cathode block,
The electrical connection between the lining 5 and the screen 13 can be provided by welding, for example, in the form of a solid or intermittent weld between the lining and
solid screen. It can also be provided by fusible solder, previously placed between the lining and the solid screen at. appropriate choice of points soliDusa and liquidus.
In Fig. 18, the lining 5 of each rod 2 is installed directly on the screen 13, made of thick steel, with which it is connected by means of solder 14 or welding 15.
Advantage of this location
wounds of thick steel at all points have an electrical potential, cathode rods, which eliminates any effect of the electrochemical cell, causing rapid corrosion. The screen thickness is 5 mm.

preferably 8-12 mm. The lining 5 has a thickness of at least 4 mm and preferably at least 10 mm.
Fig, 18 shows how the device can be installed during the construction of the bath. Rod 2 is installed in place using casting 3 in each carbon cathode block 1. Then, pad 16 is welded to location 16, the lining 5, the length of which does not exceed and is actually slightly less than the center distance of two adjacent rods. The block is then mounted on the screen 13, which lies on the insulating layer 17, and is welded in the gap 9, preferably with a solid weld to ensure good electrical contact. The device has layers 18 and 19, made of insulating refractory bricks and mounted on the bottom 20.
The table shows the optimum solder compositions for carrying out the invention, which contain at least 50% of the first metal selected among aluminum, copper, zinc, and the rest is at least the second metal selected among manganese, nickel, vanadium, beryllium, silicon, tin and titanium, as well as aluminum and copper, if the first metal is not copper or aluminum.
Among these alloys, for manufacturing, the preferred 11 and are compositions 1, 3, 6 and 7. The rest are brittle and can be crushed to the desired fineness, others should be processed in a known manner by spraying in a liquid state.
If the alloy composition allows this, the solder can be used in the form of a thin rolled sheet, inserted, when mounted between the lining and the screen. The presence of a metal reducing agent with respect to iron oxide (scale) among the main or auxiliary components, which most often covers steel plates used to make the lining or ;; screen (a metal such as A1 and / or Si), requires the use of a different composition for decaping for the purpose of favorably distributing the solder when it goes into a liquid state.

In a variant of the invention, it is possible to mix the lining 5 and the screen 13 in the form of a single piece 21 in the form of a thick steel sheet (Fig. 19 and 20).
Fig. 20 shows an assembly method in which the rods 2 are not aligned with the axis of the carbon cathode block 1., but are located between two adjacent blocks in line with the gasket between these two blocks. The advantage of this arrangement is that the gasket 4, which seals between the carbon cathode blocks 1 and the rods 2, can be supplied in a heated state to the space separating the two adjacent blocks.

Fig. 21 schematically shows a partial cross-section of an electrolysis bath containing an external metal caisson 22, carbon paste side insert 23, cathode carbon block 1 under a layer of liquid aluminum 24, electrolyte 25 and anode system 26, rod 2, fill 3 and steel lining 5.
The present invention provides the following advantages.
The metal lining on each cathode rod (there may be several tens in the bath) increases the throughput cross section of the cathode current and the steel – carbon contact surface with a relative decrease in the fall, the voltage at the steel – carbon contact.

The metal lining, connected to the screen, provides a very good current distribution over the entire surface of the cathode, as a result

The metal lining, connected to the screen, provides an excellent uniformity of the temperature of the entire cathode, which reduces the risk of leakage.

In case of rupture of the cathode rod (as a result of corrosion under the
five
by penetration of cryolite
lava and liquid aluminum in gaskets) the lining works in the unit as a spare manifold, which increases the time of stopping and dismantling the bath for repairing the cathode. In addition, the electrical imbalance of the bath is limited, which is beneficial for current output during the period separating the rupture of the rod and stopping the bath.
The presence of the screen provides additional benefits. In this case, blocking of all seepage of sodium fluoride products and cryolite melt in the direction of the thermal insulator installed on the bottom of the caisson, which are the main reason for decommissioning the electrolysis baths, occurs.
The simplified design of the cathode, for example, in the case shown in FIG. 3, requires only a simple additional weld, made by the method of bottom welding in an accessible place, or a simple powder solder.
The danger of electrochemical corrosion of the screen is eliminated due to the fact that in all points it has the potential of cathode rods. The invention contributes to an increase in the service life of the electrolysis baths and the improvement of the thermal insulation of the bottom.
The invention allows to significantly increase the service life of the electrolysis bath.
