What is a carbon electrode? What's the use? What's the current situation in the industry? Try to be specific. Thank you
Tons of ferrosilicon smelting costs reduced by 300-400 yuan, tons of calcium carbide smelting costs reduced by more than 100 yuan.Carbon electrode is an energy saving and environmental friendly product. It can greatly reduce power consumption and reduce pollution in the use of calcium carbide and ferroalloy ore heating furnaces. It is the replacement product of electrode paste. In the submerged arc furnace with the same capacity, electrode paste self baking electrode compared with the following characteristics: improving smelting furnace production, reduce power consumption and reduce the labor intensity (15-20%; 1 tons of iron smelting alloy consumption of electrode paste carbon electrode about 60kg, consumption is only about 12kg, reduce the operating times of the electrode), simplified production process; to avoid or reduce the self baking electrode frequent "broken soft" and "hard" accidents, improve the working environment, reduce operating costs.
2, application:Compared with other carbon products, carbon electrode has the characteristics of wide application field, and can be used in the smelting furnace of industrial silicon, yellow phosphorus, calcium carbide, ferroalloy and so on. Carbon electrodes have been used all over the mine furnace in developed countries.At present, in the smelting furnace of industrial silicon and yellow phosphorus, the graphite electrode with higher price has been replaced. In the submerged arc furnace of the same capacity, compared with graphite electrode, carbon electrode diameter can be made larger (now the domestic production of carbon electrode, Phi 650- Phi 1200mm graphite electrode at home can do with 600mm) in the furnace, arc zone broadening, arc stability, ensure the hot efficiency, increase the output of products, reduce the power consumption of products.
According to the composition of the electrode material, the electrode can be divided into three categories.The first kind of electrode is metal electrode and gas electrode, such as zinc electrode and copper electrode in Daniel cell, and standard hydrogen electrode;The second kind of electrodes are metal metal insoluble salt electrode and metal metal refractory oxide electrode, such as Ag-AgCl electrode.Third kinds of electrode is redox electrode (oxidation of any electrode was as redox electrode, here said the reduction electrode is refers to taking part in the electrode reaction substances are in the same solution), such as Fe3+, Fe2+ electrode solution composition.An electrode is a conductor in which an electric current enters or leaves an electrolyte during electrolysis. Electrolysis is the oxidation reduction reaction at the electrode interface.The electrode is divided into a cathode and an anode, and the anode is connected with the anode of the power supply, and the anode is oxidized. The cathode is connected with the cathode of the power supply, and the reduction reaction is arranged on the cathode.There are many kinds of electrolytic materials. Carbon electrodes are commonly used. In addition, titanium and other metals can also be used as electrodes. In electroplating, the metal containing the coating metal is often used as an anode, and the plated product is used as the cathode.
