Even though the development of technology for aluminium chloride electrolysis is being carried out in a big way by ALCOA and a few other multinational companies for the past several years, many of the data and information are lacking in published literature and the answers to various critical questions have to be found only through inferences from the meagre information available in patents. It was therefore thought fit to undertake a thorough review of all the basic applied and R&Dwork that are reported in this field and critically assess the various problems to be tackled to evolve a viable technology. This review confines itself to the electrolytic aspect and those relating to the material preparation will be taken up separately later. Key words : Production of aluminium. Molten salt electrolysis, chlorination of alumina INTRODUCTION The most obvious advantages of the aluminium chloride smelting are 131 : he need to develop a new technology for aluminium metal production 1.

The chloride cells can survive power interruptions more easily than the Hall-Heroult cells. This is possible because the chloride cell with its high Prominent alternate proceuer efficiency causes little excess heat generation and hence the cell is well insulated. In addition the chloride cell has a much lower temperature liquid Of the various processes thought of, the following are considered to be the range for the electrolyte than the fluoride cells. most significant and leading producers of aluminium metal like the ALCOA, ALCAN, Nippon Light Metal etc. have shown considerable interest. 9.

Details of these processes have been dealt with elsewhere in literature by various authors [l-41. There are certain disadvantages also in the chloride electrolysis.

INTRODUCTION Although a considerable number of precipitants have been pro- posed for the determination of aluminium, direct precipitation of aluminium hydroxide by means of ammonium hydroxide, fol- lowed by ignition to oxide, is most commonly used, especially if no separation from iron is desired, in which latter case special methods must be employed. While the general principles involved in this determination are extremely simple, it has long been recog- nized that certain precautions in the precipitation, washing, and ignition are necessary if accurate results are to be obtained. While, however, most of these details have been studied and dis- cussed by numerous authors, it is noteworthy that few publica- tions or textbooks have taken account of all the factors. In the 515 ; 516 Bulletin of the Bureau of Standards [Voi.i3 present paper it seems desirable, therefore, to assemble the various recommendations and to consider their basis and their accuracy.

The effective catalysts were aluminium bromide, aluminium chloride, gallium chloride and zirconium chloride. Other Lewis acids examined were inactive. The conversion of 1,2-dichloroethane was completed above 50°C and 40% at 25°C with aluminium chloride. Polycondensationproducts were mainly formed via disproportionation of ditolylethanes. Relationship between the isomer distribution and the conver- sion or the reaction time was clarified.

  • Secondary Aluminium-Iron (III) Chloride Batteries with a Low Temperature Molten Salt Electrolyte
    JOURNAL OF APPLIED ELECTROCHEMISTRY 22 (1992) 230-234 Secondary aluminium-iron (III) chloride batteries with a low temperature molten salt electrolyte F. M. DONAHUE*, S. E. MANCINI, L. SIMONSEN Minotaur Technologies, Ann Arbor, MI 48103-4115, USA Received 11 January 1991; revised 7 May 1991 Secondary aluminium-iron (III) chloride batteries using a low temperature molten salt electrolyte were constructed and tested. Discharge current densities were in the range 5 to 100mA (~ 1 to 20mAcm-2; ~ C/4 to 5C); charging currents were 5mA (C/4 toC/2). Utilization of the positive electrode reactant was low due to the discharge rates and loading procedure. The mode for self discharge was dissolution of the positive electrode reactant and transport to the aluminium negative electrode where it reacted. 1. Introduction Primary A1/WC16 and A1/Br2 cells were studied in basic MEIC melts [2]. Secondary batteries with Low temperature molten salts based on mixtures MEIC-containing electrolytes were studied which also of organic salts (e.g. butylpyridinium chloride, incorporated the characteristics of concentration cells 1-methyl-3-ethylimidazolium chloride (MEIC), and [2]. A1/C12 primary and secondary configurations were 1,2-dimethyl-3-propylimidazolium chloride (DMPIC)) tested in basic and acidic melts, respectively; solubility and aluminium chloride have been proposed as bat- of chlorine in the electrolyte caused significant self- tery electrolytes [1-6]. Binary solutions of these types discharge at the negative electrode in both electrolytes are normally called basic (organic salt-rich), neutral and, in the case of the acidic melts, resulted in chlori- (equimolar), and acidic (AIC13-rich). nation of the organic cation [4, 11].

    O1_11 Recovery of Actinides from Actinide-Aluminium Alloys: Chlorination Route E. Mendes1, L. Cassayre2, R. Malmbeck1, P. Souček1, R. Jardin1, J.-P. Glatz1 1European Commission, JRC, Institute for Transuranium Elements, Postfach 2340, 76125 Karlsruhe, Germany 2Laboratoire de Génie Chimique (LGC), Université Paul Sabatier, UMR CNRS 5503, 118 route de Narbonne, 31062 Toulouse Cedex 04, France A method for recovery of actinides (An) from An-Al alloys formed by electrochemical separation of metallic spent nuclear fuel on solid aluminium electrodes in molten chloride salts is described. The proposed route consists of three main steps: Vacuum distillation of salt adhered on the electrodes, chlorination of An-Al alloy by pure chlorine gas and sublimation of formed AlCl3. A thermochemical study of the route was performed to determine important chemical reactions and to find optimum experimental conditions for all process steps. Vacuum distillation of the electrode is efficient for complete removal of remaining salt and most fission products (FP), full chlorination of the An-Al alloys is possible at any working temperature and evaporation of AlCl3 is achieved by heating under argon.. Experiments have been carried out using U-Al alloy in order to define parameters providing full alloy chlorination without formation of volatile UCl5 and UCl6. It was shown that full chlorination of An-Al alloys without An losses should be possible at a temperature approx. 150°C. INTRODUCTION to obtain the desired output product, e.g. An alloy.
