Question
Identify the process given below and accordingly draw neat labelled diagram:
A molten mixture of alumina (melting point > 2000°C) is done in a steel tank. The tank has a graphite lining on the inner side. The lining does the work of cathode. A set of graphite rods dipped in the molten electrolyte works as anode. Cryolite (Na3AlF6) and flurospar (CaF2) are added in the mixture to lower its melting point upto 1000°C.
