Abstract A large amount of spent pot lining (SPL) is produced by cryolite-alumina melting electrolysis process, and the fluoride content in leaching solution up to 6000 mg/L, which belongs hazardous waste. If SPL not handled effectively, it will cause great harm environment. Because NaF rich an important raw material for synthesis cryolite carbonation, this paper uses as extract NaF. On basis e...

This paper presents a novel method for determination of insulator contamination (IC) level. ICs caused some problems in electric networks. Some faults occur in electric system due to ICs. These faults sometimes log to a sudden and serious damages to the systems. So ICs reduce power quality and reliability indexes. Usually insulator washing is a solution for this problem and its events. Insulato...
