Huomei Hongjun Achieves Breakthrough in Ground Insulation Fault Detection for Aluminum Electrolytic Cells, Wins Italian Patent

Published: May 25, 2025 21:58
Huomei Hongjun Aluminum & Power Co., Ltd. recently achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of ground insulation fault detection for aluminum electrolytic cells. Its "Detection Method for Ground Insulation Fault of Aluminum Electrolytic Cell" was authorized by the Italian Patent and Trademark Office. This method detects the alternating current (AC) voltage component to ground for each electrolytic cell in the series of aluminum electrolytic cells and analyzes and calculates the variation patterns of their AC ground potential amplitudes and phases. When a sudden change occurs in the curve of the AC potential amplitude or phase, it can be determined that a ground fault exists. By calculating the modulus maxima of the derivative function of the variation curve, the location of the faulty cell can be accurately identified. This technology boasts notable advantages such as real-time monitoring and precise positioning, high accuracy and low misjudgment, and strong applicability. This innovative achievement fills a technological gap in the industry and provides strong support for the intelligent and efficient development of the aluminum industry.

On March 27, 2026, the European Commission announced that, in response to an application submitted by the EU industry association European Aluminium on December 19, 2025, it had initiated the first sunset review investigation into anti-dumping duties on aluminum extrusions originating from China. The investigation will examine whether dumping of the products in question and the injury to the domestic industry caused by the removal of the existing anti-dumping measures will continue or recur. The dumping investigation period for this review is from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025, and the injury investigation period is from January 1, 2022 to the end of the dumping investigation period. Unless otherwise extended, the final determination will be made within 12 months.
