Abstract
An improved alumina reduction cell is described in which the carbonaceous cathode includes refractory hard metal tiles projecting upwardly from the cell surface thereof, forming the true cathode surface, and a solid layer of alumina and cryolite beneath the molten aluminum produced within the cell and the alumina-cryolite bath from which the molten aluminum is obtained. This bottom alumina-cryolite layer protects the refractory hard metal-carbonaceous interface from attack by the molten aluminum, increasing the useful life of the cell.
