Abstract Scope |
This paper examines the issues encountered during the initial operation of a 500kA pre-baked aluminium reduction cell line. Through comprehensive physical field testing and analysis, specific operational problems within the cell were identified. The study focused on optimizing the cathode structure and cell lining, while improving thermal insulation design and process management. Post-optimization, the technical and economic performance of the reduction cell improved significantly, achieving energy conservation, emission reduction, and enhanced production efficiency. |
