A mixture model to take into account diluted gas in liquid flow: applications to aluminium electrolysis

Emile Tryphon Pierre Soutter

Aluminium is a metal sought in the industry because of its various physical properties. It is produced by an electrolysis reduction process in large cells. In these cells, a large electric current goes through the electrolytic bath and the liquid aluminium ...

Machine learning for metallurgy IV: A neural network potential for Al-Cu-Mg and Al-Cu-Mg-Zn

William Curtin, Daniel John Gilles Marchand

Most metallurgical properties, e.g., dislocation propagation, precipitate formation, can only be fully understood atomistically but most phenomena and quantities of interest cannot be measured experimentally. Accurate simulation methods are essential but f ...

Méthodes numériques liées à la distribution d'alumine dans une cuve d'électrolyse d'aluminium

Thomas Frédéric Hilke

Metallic aluminium plays a key role in our modern economy. Primary metallic aluminium is produced by the transformation of aluminium oxide using the Hall-Héroult industrial process. This process, which requires enormous quantities of energy, consists in pe ...

Field effect modulated nanofluidic diode membrane based on Al2O3/W heterogeneous nanopore arrays

Jürgen Brugger, Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Songmei Wu, Fabien Patrick Wildhaber

We developed Al2O3/W heterogeneous nanopore arrays for field effect modulated nanofluidic diodes. They are fabricated by transferring self-organized nanopores of anodic aluminium oxide into a W thin film. The nanopores are ∼20 nm in diameter and 400 nm in ...

Facile fabrication of nanofluidic diode membranes using anodic aluminium oxide

Jürgen Brugger, Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Oscar Vazquez Mena, Songmei Wu, Fabien Patrick Wildhaber

Active control of ion transport plays important roles in chemical and biological analytical processes. Nanofluidic systems hold the promise for such control through electrostatic interaction between ions and channel surfaces. Most existing experiments rely ...

Anode dusting during the electrolytic production of aluminium

Timea Tordai

The disintegration of the carbon anodes during the electrolysis of alumina produces dust particles contaminating the electrolytic bath. This phenomenon, called dusting, is one of the most deleterious Al electrolysis failures, as it leads to a significant d ...
