Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to find a solution for saving energy in the cell room. Another purpose of the paper is to find materials suitable for stable side and bottom ledge formation, research the properties of such materials, and study their behavior in cryolite-alumina melts, including selection of the most suitable material. Moreover, the paper is concerned with energy consumption reduction by forming stable side and bottom ledges. Furthermore, as mentioned earlier, several materials have been selected to form stable side and bottom ledges during the post-start-up period. The properties of the selected materials have been analyzed
