<p>A procedure for the cathodic electrowinning of metals, with the corresponding acid generation, from its salt solution, using a electrochemical cell where the anodic and cathodic comparments are physically separated by a cation permoselective membrane, in such a way that different electrolytes are used in each electrodic space. The cathode receives a solution of the corresponding metallic salt, (typically, its chloride), the metal being discharged at the cathode, and the electrical equilibrium being maintained by protons coming from the anolyte, across the cations permeating membrane.</p> |
