VERFAHREN ZUR MESSUNG DER VERUNREINIGUNGSKONZENTRATION UND ENTFERNUNG VON VERUNREINIGUNGEN AUS EINER ELEKTROLYTLOESUNG FUER DIE ELEKTROLYTISCHE EXTRAKTION VON ZINK

摘要

Concentrations of cobalt and copper of electrolysis solution for electrowinning of zinc can be measured any time during electrowinning operation by continuously sampling the solution, diluting it, adding coloring reagent to the flow of the solution and spectrophotometrically analyzing the solution. The cobalt and copper as deleterious impurities can be removed continuously and automatically by measuring their concentrations by the above method and adding precipitation reagents for them in an amount calculated by a microcomputer on the basis of said analysis.
