Embodiment 1

[0024] In this embodiment, pulse current treatment is performed on the Al-2.2% Fe melt in the crucible. Specific steps are as follows:

[0025] Step 1: Put the configured Al-2.2% Fe alloy material into a crucible and heat it in a resistance furnace to 1200°C for 60 minutes. To ensure that the acicular iron-rich phase in the master alloy Al-20%Fe is completely dissolved and the melt is homogenized. The size of the crucible is Φ50mm (inner diameter)×60mm.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for separating impurities of iron element by pulse current in recycled aluminum melt, which belongs to the technical field of purification of recycled aluminum melt. Place the secondary aluminum alloy melt with excessive iron content in the crucible, connect the two electrodes with the pulse power supply and insert them into the aluminum melt in parallel, continue to apply the pulse current until the corresponding time, and select the corresponding pulse according to the volume and temperature of the melt parameter. Pulse current processing parameter range: frequency 20~50kHz, voltage 1~100V, current density 0.1~700A / cm 2 , Action time 1min ~ 10h. The method utilizes the electromigration of Al elements and Fe elements in the melt in different directions under the action of a pulse current to enrich them at the positive electrode and the negative electrode respectively, so as to achieve the purpose of purifying the aluminum melt. The invention can carry out pulse current treatment on the aluminum melt without adding any neutralizing element to pollute the melt, so as to realize the separation of iron impurity elements in the aluminum melt and purify the melt. The method is simple, efficient, and pollution-free, greatly improves the efficiency of iron removal, and meets the requirements of the current industrial green development plan.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of purification of recycled aluminum melts, and in particular relates to a method for realizing the separation of Al-Fe in aluminum melts by pulse current, thereby removing iron impurity elements in recycled aluminum melts. Background technique [0002] Aluminum alloy has been widely used in automobile, aviation, electronics, construction and other fields due to its excellent performance. Moreover, aluminum and its aluminum alloys are highly recyclable and are the metal materials with the most recycling value. The recycling of aluminum and its alloys has significant environmental and economic benefits. Compared with the production of primary aluminum, the comprehensive energy consumption of producing secondary aluminum is only 5% of that of electrolytic aluminum, but CO 2 emissions can be reduced by more than 90%. Therefore, while rationally developing and utilizing energy and bauxite resources, attention ...
