Process for the preparation of a dry aggregate for the production of electrodes

Abstract From the Canadian patent

The preparation of carbonaceous dry aggregates for the production of electrodes requires, for electrode plants extensive and expensive silo installations in order for dry substances to be processed and stored in a discrete manner until they are mixed. For that purpose in relation to, known preparation processes it is difficult to maintain given granulometry lines. The invention proposes a preparation process which requires a small number of small silos and involves mixing and grading procedures with which granulometries are simple to adjust and can be kept within narrow tolerance ranges.
