Electrolytic production of aluminum

Patent Pending The conversion of alumina to aluminum metal is achieved by the Hall-Héroult process. In this energy-intensive process, a solution of alumina in a molten (950 and 980 °C (1,740 and 1,800 °F)) mixture of cryolite (Na3AlF6) with calcium fluoride is electrolyzed to give the metal: Al3+ + 3 e− → Al At the anode, oxygen is formed: 2 O2− → O2 + 4 e−
