摘要 |
An apparatus is disclosed for electrolytic desilvering of photographic processing solutions, more particularly fixing solutions or bleach-fixing solutions, comprising an electrolysis unit equiped with a monitoring system comprising a cathode, an anode and a reference electrode, characterized in that said reference electrode is a pH sensitive electrode. The desilvering is preferably performed under potentiostatic conditions. Whe using a pH sensitive reference electrode the cathodic plating potential is automatically corrected for pH changes. A preferred pH sensitive electrode is a glass electrode.
