Аннотация: The effect of adding CaF(2), AlF(3), and KF into electrolyte on the consumption of fired anode during aluminum electrolysis is investigated. The CaF(2) content varied from 5 to 10 wt % in the electrolyte of the industrial composition. Correspondingly, the concentration of AlF(3) and KF varied from 4 to 10 and from 0 to 4.7 wt % in Показать полностьюthe modified electrolytes. Based on the procedure used, the total consumption of carbon and the amount of carbon transported into the gas phase (m(g)) and foam (m(f)) were determined. Electrolysis duration was 12 h, the distance between the poles was 40 mm, the temperature was 960 degrees C, and the current density was 0.85 and 1.2 A/cm(2). It is established that adding CaF(2) and AlF(3) increases the consumption of anode, while adding KF decreases it. For CaF(2), partial derivative m(f)/partial derivative[CaF(2)] is larger than partial derivative m(g)/partial derivative[CaF(2)], 15.4 and 6.6 kg/(t(A1) wt %) CaF(2), respectively. For AlF(3), partial derivative m(f)/partial derivative[AlF(3)] is also larger than partial derivative m(g)/partial derivative[AlF(3)] and equals 6.8 and 4.2 kg/(t(A1) wt %) AlF(3). For KF, partial derivative m(f)/partial derivative[KF] is smaller than partial derivative m(g)/partial derivative[KF], being -11.3 and -8.1 kg/(t(A1) wt %) KF.
