Performance & Working Principle
Primary Function

The Online Degassing Unit efficiently removes hydrogen (H₂) and non-metallic inclusions (slags) from molten aluminum, improving metal purity and final product integrity.

Gas Flotation Method

The system operates on the gas flotation principle. A high-speed rotor injects an inert gas (or a mixture of chlorine and inert gas) into the molten aluminum bath, dispersing it into a fine cloud of micro-bubbles that perform simultaneous purification processes:

  • Hydrogen Removal: Dissolved hydrogen diffuses into the bubbles and is evacuated to the atmosphere
  • Alkali Metal Removal: Chlorine reacts with alkali metals to form chloride compounds that are captured and removed
  • Slag/Inclusion Removal: Non-metallic inclusions adhere to bubble surfaces and are carried upward to the dross layer for skimming
Key Outcome

This process significantly reduces hydrogen content and inclusion levels, resulting in improved casting quality, reduced porosity, and enhanced mechanical properties of aluminum products.

System Components & Design Features
Degassing Efficiency

Average degassing efficiency is 60%. When using Ar with Mg content ≤1%, efficiency can reach 0.09cc/100g.

Lining Structure

The lining is made of high silicon molten material with an average working life of 2-3 years. Features include non-stick aluminum properties, no contamination, and an internal float stopper to prevent oxides from being drawn into molten aluminum while containing bubbles and slags.

Rotor Design Standards

Constructed from SiN with a working life of 2-5 years. Excellent performance in corrosion resistance, heat shock resistance, oxidative resistance, abrasive resistance, and mechanical strength. Shaft diameter 60mm, head diameter 200mm reduces stirring resistance. Speed design of 450-550 RPM crushes bubbles and disperses them evenly throughout the aluminum.

Heater Protection Thimble

Made from SiN with average service life of 1-2 years. Features high heating efficiency, oxidation and slagging prevention, and no contamination.

Gas Protection System

Compatible with Ar mixed with N2 and chlorine, with comprehensive protection methods designed.

Sealing Structure

Includes cover, lining, inlet, and outlet components to prevent slag leakage and improve degassing efficiency.

Operation Procedures
Safety & Preparation
  • Heating Completion: Switch off heater after degassing box heating is finished
  • Inert Gas Pre-heating: Guide inert gas into the rotor
  • Temperature Matching: Prepare to introduce molten aluminum when heater temperature approaches molten aluminum temperature
  • Seal Check: Inspect sealing between inlet/outlet and launder
  • Bottom Check: Verify correct positioning of cone (heat protection/draining plug) at bottom
  • Molten Aluminum Temperature: Ensure temperature is ≥ 720°C
  • Observation Height: Adjust molten aluminum level to approximately 3 cm from bottom of launder
  • Personal Protective Equipment: Operators must wear protective clothing
Operating Procedure
  • Close Cover & Deslagging: Wear PPE, close box cover, and skim surface slag through deslagging outlet
  • Heat-up & Start Production: Begin production when temperature reaches 780°C
  • Heat Preservation Stage: Retain molten aluminum at set temperature without processing; continuously introduce small inert gas flow to prevent blockage
  • Heating & Parameter Setting: Switch on heater immediately after molten aluminum flow completion and set heat preservation parameters
  • Transition to Processing Stage: Start heating system, change rotor speed from preservation to processing stage, and increase inert gas flow rate
  • Stable Operation: Set target temperature and maintain stable degassing operating conditions
