Electrolytic reduction is a type of electrolysis in which an electric current is passed through a molten or dissolved ionic substance, generating chemical reactions between the electrodes and the decomposition of the components. Electrolytic reduction is used to produce certain metals such as K , Na, and Al . The electrolytic reduction can be made in a molten state only. Alumina melts at higher temperature, so it is not easy to collect it. This difficulty was removed by adding cryolite to alumina as a solvent to obtain the globules of aluminium.
