Electrowinning is a widely used technology in modern metal recovery, mining, refining, and wastewater treatment applications. Electrowinning is one of the oldest electrolytic processes known and was first introduced in 1807 by English chemist Humphry Davy. After 66 long years the first commercial refinery Balbach and Sons Refining and …
As an example, in a typical copper recovery cell, a copper to ferric ratio of greater than ten will ensure the efficient recovery of copper without excessive electricity consumption. The only way to reliably determine the effect that iron will have on an electrowinning circuit is to perform small-scale test work or to collect operational data.
