ABSTRACT:
Zinc metal is deposited on mobile seed particles in an electrowinning process. Exceptionally favorable results in terms of production rate, current efficiency and energy consumption are achieved by using a unique combination of design parameters and operating conditions achieved by selected ranges for particle size, current density, particle bed thickness, and acid content of the electrolyte.
