ELECTROLYTIC CELL AND CIRCULATING METHOD FOR ELECTROLYTE

摘要

An electrolytic cell of high capacity and circulation for the electrolytic refining and recovery of copper at a high current density is described, comprising a pair of supply ports and a single discharge port for supply and discharge of an electrolyte. The electrolyte which is first divided into two portions and supplied from the supply ports is circulated through individual zones of the internal space of the cell uniformly along the longest path at a low linear velocity and is finally discharged from a common discharge port.
