Abstract

The invention relates to an ultrasonic-assisted alkaline pickling treatment method of aluminum electrolysis spent cathode carbon blocks. The ultrasonic-assisted alkaline pickling treatment method of the aluminum electrolysis spent cathode carbon blocks belongs to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis solid waste resource recovery, and comprises the following steps of smashing the aluminum electrolysis spent cathode carbon blocks, adding the aluminum electrolysis spent cathode carbon blocks into alkaline liquor for leaching, and filtering to obtain carbon powder and first filter liquor; carrying out alkaline pickling under the ultrasonic environment; leading CO2 into the first filter liquor, crystallizing out, filtering to obtain cryolite, an aluminum hydroxide mixture and second filter liquor, and recycling the second filter liquor. The ultrasonic-assisted alkaline pickling treatment method of the aluminum electrolysis spent cathode carbon blocks is simple in process, and convenient to operate; and through the synergistic effect of ultrasonic wave and alkaline pickling, the reaction rate is accelerated, the purity of the product carbon powder is improved, the maximum purity of the carbon powder is 97.92 percent, and the production cycle is 70min.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for treating waste and old cathode carbon blocks of aluminum electrolysis by ultrasonic-assisted alkali leaching, and belongs to the technical field of aluminum electrolysis solid waste resource recovery. Background technique [0002] The lining of the aluminum electrolytic cell is constructed in a steel frame and is composed of materials such as carbon, silicon carbide, refractory bricks, insulation bricks, and calcium silicate boards. During the production process, the lining of the tank is inevitably corroded by high-temperature electrolytes, liquid aluminum, sodium metal and other substances, resulting in deformation and rupture of the lining structure, and the liquid aluminum and electrolyte in the tank leaking from the cracks. Generally, a new electrolytic cell needs to be shut down for overhaul after 3 to 6 years of use, and the waste cell lining produced is the most important solid waste in the aluminum electro...
