Application Number: JP,2022-096842

Category (FI): C25C7/00,302,C25C7/02,308@Z,C22B5/00

Stage: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an anode arrangement structure, a molten salt electrolysis tank, and a production method of metal, in which oxidative consumption of an anode is well suppressed.SOLUTION: An anode arrangement structure of the present invention has structure in which an anode 3a is arranged in a lid 4 of a molten salt electrolysis tank 1 for performing an electrolysis in a molten salt bath inside, being used for covering the open part of a tank body 2 provided in the molten salt electrolysis tank 1. The anode arrangement structure includes the lid 4 having an open hole 4a, and the anode 3a arranged inside and outside the molten salt electrolysis tank 1 while penetrating through the open hole 4a of the lid 4. A gas supply part 6 is provided so as to supply an inert gas to the periphery of an anode boundary part 3d situated inside the open hole 4a that is on the boundary between the inside and the outside of the molten salt electrolysis tank 1 to lower the concentration of oxygen around the anode boundary part 3d.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 (Grant)
