MANUFACTURE OF ALUMINUM-The 1e,o Mctnl-M
Dumas has announced to the French Academy that
the problem OF rendering the preparation of alumni
mum an industrial operation has now been solved
The methods have been devised by NM. Deville and
Norm, and differ bat little from those originally
Chord of aluminium, and decompose it by sodium
in order to obtain the aluminium The chlord is
now made by the direct of kaOlin, or even of
clay. But this is not all. The Chord was difficult
to manage in large way, because, after having
been formed in vapor, it was often condensed in
snowy crystals, rendering it necessary to collect it
in chambers, and detach it mechanically from the
surfaces it coated. There was, first a loss of the
Chord, the condensation being incomplete;
secnnd, danger for the workmen exposed to
the respiration of the yapors; third,
hanoement of cost from the interruptions of the
occupation, The Improvement consists in submit
ting to a current of chlorine-no longer mixture
OF alumina and charcoal, but-a mixture OF aumina,
charcoal and chlorid of sodium; this affords dou-
BILE Chord of aluminium and sodium, which is VIOLA
tile and iquidable running like water, and becom-
ing solid with cold. The preparation goes on unin-
,,erruptediy, proceeding with simplicity and regu-
iari'y, ana exacting other than what is ne
cesSary Tor the production of the chlorid the
al OF the preparation for decomposition, and the
suusuta.9h rs soon as cooled of earthern pots, in
%hcn cakes FORM from the double Chord, that
flows in o continued stream. The Chord i decom
posed in reverberatory furnace into which, mixed
with bits OF sodium, it is introduced The reaction
OF the two substances takes place after n few mo-
ments, but so quietly that it may be done ON large
scale without danger. 1t leaves the alumnnm In
plates, globules or powder; and Is separated from
the common salt either mechanically or by means of
water. NJ Dumas asserts that the cost of making
sodium is but slight, and that its manufacture is ca,
sier than that of phosphorus and also simple as
that of zinc.
