<p>An anode structure suitable for an electrochemical process is disclosed. The anode comprises a primary anode structure, also referred to as an anode frame, and a secondary metal substrate attached to the anode frame. The anode frame is a structural support and suitable electrical conductor. The metal substrate has an electrocatalytic coating and provides the anode with an anodic surface. The metal substrate is easily removable from the anode frame. Also disclosed is a method for refurbishing anodes according to the present invention. An anode comprising an anode frame and a metal substrate is refurbished by removing a depleted metal substrate from the frame and attaching a separate precoated metal substrate to the frame. The method of refurbishing optionally includes refurbishing the depleted metal substrate and using the refurbished substrate to refurbish the anode structure. A method for providing replacement anodes is also disclosed. The method includes supplying a user with an anode comprising an anode frame and a metal substrate attached thereto. The method also includes supplying one or more additional pre-coated substrates to the user I such that the user may refurbish the anode when necessary.</p> |
