ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a cell for producing a metal by electrolyzing halides in a molten salt bath. It consists of using one cathode in the form of a basket, simultaneously passing a current I.sub.1 between this cathode and an anode in such a manner as to carry out a first deposit of crude metal in the basket and a current I.sub.2 between the said basket and complimentary cathodes for depositing the final metal thereon. The cell consists of a central anodic system, a tubular cathodic basket surrounding the anode and a series of cathodes surrounding this basket, a positioning which cathodes can be reversed in relation to the basket.
