Due to its outstanding properties and wide range of applications, high-purity to ultra-high-purity aluminum represents a strategic material for meeting the future challenges of the 21st century. The purification of aluminum towards higher purity levels is usually performed via a combination of three-layer electrolytic refining and fractional crystallization using zone-melting processes. New methods and processes are being researched in the search for more time-saving and less costly options. Metal refining using static crystallization represents one of these new, alternative processes. This work investigated the feasibility of metal refining by means of a static crystallization furnace using aluminum as an example metal. In particular, the effects of the temperature gradient and the cooling rate on the reduction factor of the impurities iron (Fe), silicon (Si), and lead (Pb) were investigated. In addition, the effects of the process parameters on the grain structure formed were investigated, and correlations to the resulting purity level were made.
