The dore contains about 980 silver to 3 to 8 gold, and the anodes cast are 15 x 3½ x ½ inch. The cathode belt runs either within half an inch of the muslin, and is 31 feet long by 15 inches wide. At first the belts were made of silver-coated rubber, but owing to the buckling of the rubber silver belt sheets, 1-32 inch thick, were introduced.
The gold, silver, and metals of the platinum group are insoluble in the sulphate electrolyte, and drop to the bottom of the cells as slimes when the anodes are dissolved. The electrolyte is copper sulphate and contains 3 per cent, of copper as …
The twin anodes caused a more uniform cathode deposit than a single anode. Anode material was either 4-mm thick by 25-mm wide graphite or 2-mm thick by 25-mm wide stainless steel perforated with 2.3-mm diam holes. Both were immersed 40 mm in the electrolyte solution. Cathode materials tested were lead sheet, lead wool, and steel wool.
generate gold sludge easily and to transfer it to the EWEF cell. A thermostatically controlled heater provides for temperature control of the circulating solution. The primary EW cell essentially consists of two coaxial stainless steel cylinders, where the outer one is the anode and the polished inner one is the cathode. The latter may be

The anode rectifier complex, robust and easy to operate unit having calculated plates are fabricated from stainless steel. The anodes are connected to an insulated bus reaction that occurs at the cathode results in the Page 2 Electrowinning cell ELECTROWINNING

Generally used with gold and silver-bearing cyanide solutions, our cells have also been used successfully with non-cyanide metal-bearing solutions. We offer cell sizes from 50 to 150ft of cathode equivalent volume, normally ranging from 500 to 2000 applied amps per cell, as shown in the table below.
An electrowinning cell of novel design has been described by Treasure (2000).Named as EMEW R cell, it consists of a cylindrical in place of planar electrodes. The outer tube is the cathode and the inner one is anode. The diameters of the electrode tubes are sized according to the particular application to minimize cell voltage for a given solution chemistry.
position is occupied by silver electrowinning using insoluble anodes to produce cathode deposits [1, 2]. During silver electrowinning from nitric acid solu tions, dark grey needlelike substances are deposited onto the surface of platinized titanium anodes (PTAs); their formation is accompanied by a change of electro lyte color.
