Electrorefining of U-Pu-Zr alloy on solid Al electrodes in LiCl-KCl eutectic melt initially containing Zr ions [PDF]
, 2007 Electrorefining process in molten chloride salts using solid aluminium cathodes to recover actinides (An) is developed in ITU. Complete recovery of actinides in electrorefining of An-Zr alloy fuels can not be achieved without co-dissolution of Zr. It has

Effect of Thiourea on Copper Electrorefining
Journal of MMIJ, 2009 The effect of thiourea on copper electrodeposition has been investigated by measuring the cathodic polarization curves for aqueous H2SO4-CuSO4 solutions and observing the surface morphology of deposited Cu. The cathode potential for Cu deposition was depolarized by the addition of thiourea less than 0.1 mmol/L, whereas it was significantly polarized ...

A new electrorefining system for aluminium
, 1990 Super pure aluminium is at present produced on commercial scale by three layer electrorefining process which has several drawbacks. A new nonalloying refining system was hence developed and tried in laboratory scale cells.

DEVELOPMENT OF CHARACTERIZATION METHODS FOR ADHERENT ANODE SLIMES IN COPPER ELECTROREFINING
, 2016 Adherent anode slimes can cause anode passivation in copper electrorefining and lower the efficiency of copper electrorefining. Declining concentrate grades cause larger impurity levels in anodes, thus creating larger quantities of slimes in the refining
