After studying the thermal-electric distribution, magnetic field of the 85kA three-layer electrolysis cell deeply and systematically, some influence regulations of the operating parameters to the cells have been disclosed. Based on these works, a series of 85kA three-layer electrolysis cells with the Gadeau process electrolyte system for capacity of 20,000t/y refined aluminum have been designed optimally; the operating parameters of the cells have been optimized; some improvements have been applied on the 85kA three-layer electrolysis cells in order to operate the aluminum refining course automatically. The aim of high current efficiency 98.5% and low DC power consumption 14000kWh/t has come true.
