Abstract

This paper presents a new, improved technological procedure of copper electrolytic refining by using non – standard plate electrodes where the electrodes bottom lines are designed along the ellipse line. The aim of electrolytic refining was to get as more as possible, cathode copper of the high purity and anode slime from which precious metals - gold and silver are obtained by its further processing.Three sets of experimental investigations of electrolytic refining of anode copper were carried out in semi-industrial plant under different conditions. The original results are presented in this paper..

Keywords
