Abstract
In order to develop an energy saving process for electrowinning of liq uid aluminum from chloride melts, a design principle for a bipolar ele ctrode cell was developed and the design parameters suitable for its o peration were determined on the basis of experiments in 25 mol %MgCl2- 75mol%NaCl melts containing several mol% AlCl3 at 750 degrees C.
