Problems solved by technology

[0007] (1) Someone once used evaporation method to recover sodium fluoride, but the cost was too high to be applied in industry, and only a single substance was recovered, and other substances were not processed;
[0008] (2) Alkali is used to treat waste cathodes and reuse the combustion method to process carbon, the electrolyte recovery efficiency is low, and the cost is high;
[0010] All the above-mentioned methods have the problem of high cost without exception. It can be seen that only by adopting a simultaneous recovery of multiple substances and harmless process can the average cost be reduced and industrial application possible.

Abstract

A method for treating aluminum electrolytic waste cathode carbon blocks by an acid and alkali combination method is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1) aluminum electrolytic waste cathode is added to concentrated basic solution for reaction; a filtered solid phase is obtained by filtering and is added to concentrated acid for reaction; and carbon powder is obtained after filtration; (2) filtrates are mixed and dropwise added with the concentrated basic solution, the pH value thereof is adjusted to 9, the obtained mixture is kept standing and filtered to obtain cryolite; (3) the filtrate is added with saturated bleach solution, kept standing and filtered to obtain calcium fluoride; (4) the fourth filtrates is heated, evaporated and crystallized to obtain sodium chloride solid. With the purposes of waste utilization and environmental protection, the method successfully provides the process for treating aluminum electrolytic waste cathode by the acid and alkali method, which causes the waste cathode to not be the conventional waste and pollutant and to become artificial mineral resources. The method solves the problem of waste utilization in aluminum electrolysis industry, improves benefit, and improves the comprehensive level of the aluminum electrolysis industry of China.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic chemistry, and in particular relates to a method for treating waste cathode carbon blocks of aluminum electrolysis by an acid-base combined method. Background technique [0002] At present, the aluminum electrolysis industry uses large prebaked tanks. The carbon cathodes of aluminum electrolytic cells are usually made of anthracite and pitch binder, and their service life is generally 3 to 5 years. When the damaged cathode of the electrolytic cell was dug out, it was found that the carbon cathode had undergone obvious changes. The carbon block has many cracks, holes and erosion pits filled with electrolyte. In each part of the cathode, the infiltration amount of electrolyte is different: near the edge of the tank, the amount of electrolyte generally accounts for about 40%; in the carbon seam, the infiltration amount is as high as 70%; and in the middle of the tank, the content is about 25%.
