eletrólise para a recuperação de prata a partir de soluções lixiviantes de tiossulfato ou tiouréia

摘要

The present invention is related to the mining and mineral or materials treatment industries that deal with gold and silver. Specifically, it is related to the process to recover gold and silver from thiosulfate or thiourea solutions, with an electrolysis that occurs simultaneously on both the anode and cathode. The advantages of the present invention, relative to the current state of technology, reside in the increased velocity and greatly reduced energy consumption in relation to those found in conventional electrolytic cells.
