An apparatus for the smelting of aluminum includes a melting furnace that is separate from and free of permanent interconnection with an electrolytic cell. The melting furnace is preferably an induction melting furnace that is designed for optimum heating and intermixing of a cryolite electrolyte and alumina, and the electrolytic cell is preferably designed for electrolysis of alumina without regard for heating, mixing or dissolving requirements. Methods for operating the apparatus are also described.
