METHOD FOR RECOVERING METALLIC MATERIAL TO BE RECOVERED OF FUSED SALT ELECTROLYTIC DEVICE AND DEVICE THEREFOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain the improvement in recovery efficiency by simplification of recovery operation with the improvement in the precipitation rate of metal uranium. SOLUTION: An anode basket 3 and cathode drums 4 are arranged in the fused salt 2 injected into an electrolytic cell 1. Nearly the lower half parts of the cathode drums 4 are held immersed in the fused salt 2 and the drums have revolving shafts in a horizontal direction. The metal uranium precipitated on the outer peripheral surfaces of the cathode drums 4 by an electrolysis is scraped by scrapers 6 existing above the liquid surface of the fused salt 2.
