摘要:
A method and apparatus for microencapsulating or electrodeposited coating of ferromagnetic and soft-magnetic sub-micron or nano sized powderized material comprising use of a rotary flow-through device assisted by an electromagnet within the electrode ring to alternately position the powder at the face of the cathode ring and electroplate the powder and reorient it prior to another repositioning. The invention is also of a process and apparatus for forming a strip, mesh, or film from magnetic powderized material in an organized bipolar arrangement, which is particularly useful for electroforming foils with the magnetic particles positioned in a monolayer within a multilayer metallic foil.

The present invention relates to a device and method for electrolytic deposition of metals on conducting particles. The conducting particles are completely immersed in a liquid and allowed to flow across a particle contacting surface of a cathode support. The particles flow across the surface and into a reservoir. Electrical contact is made between the negative pole of a DC power supply and the conducting particles. An anode mesh is placed above and parallel to the top face of the particle bed such that the mesh does not touch the particle bed but remains a controlled distance from it. The anode mesh is connected to the positive terminal of the DC power supply. A significant aspect of the present invention is that the device does not require a separator between the particle bed and the anode.

An electrolytic metal extraction cell (10) is disclosed for the electrowinning of metals from dilute solutions of their salts. A thin-walled tube (12) formed from the metal to be deposited extends between a pair of plastic end caps (13 and 14). The upper and lower end caps (13 and 14) include respective fluid outlet and inlet pipes (22 and 23) having their axes perpendicular to the axis of the tube (12) and tangential to the annular cavity (24) between the tube (12) and a central tubular electrode (21), inducing a spiral or turbulent fluid flow within the annular cavity (24) which promotes even deposition of electrowon material onto the tube (12).

Disclosed herein is a process for dissolving and recovering noble metals form used catalysts. Noble metal components are leached out from particles supporting or containing at least one noble metal or noble metal compound by subjecting particles them to electrolysis, with the electrolyte being an acid, in the anode compartment of an electrolytic cell which divided by a diaphragm into anode and cathode compartments, and the resulting solution containing noble metals is subjected to electrolysis in a fluidized bed electrolytic cell, thereby causing the noble metals to separate out on to the fluidizing cathode particles. The thus deposited noble metals are again leached out in an electrolytic cell.

An apparatus for recovering metals, such as gold and silver, dissolved in a solution, such as plating waste, rapidly and effectively, comprising a collector (electrolyzing device) for depositing metals in a solution on conductive particles, and a plating device (electrolysis recovering device) for recovering the metals in the form of plating.

A fluid bed electrolysis process is provided for the recovery of nickel from nickel-containing solution, e.g., leach solution, in which a fluid bed of substantially pure nickel particles or pellets of size ranging from about 150 to 2000 microns is employed, the fluid bed being preferably formed of reduced nickel oxide, such as hydrogen-reduced nickel oxide.
摘要:
A process and an apparatus for electrowinning metal from metal bearing solutions is disclosed. A support solution containing a predetermined metal concentration is continuously recirculated through a cell having a porous grid supporting a bed of particulate conducting particles at a sufficiently high flow rate so as to fluidize and expand the bed by 5 to 25%. A gas is continuously fed through the bed of conducting particles so as to strongly agitate the particles at low bed expansion to maintain good mixing and uniform fluidization of the bed of particles. The cell includes an electrode arrangement suspended from the top of the cell and immersed into the bed of fluidized conducting particles. Such electrode arrangement consists of at least one cathode feeder electrode in physical contact with the fluidized particles to make the particles cathodic and so cause the metal ions to deposit on the particles, and at least one anode electrode separated from the cathodic particles by a membrane which allows the free passage of ions while preventing physical contact with the particles. To make the process continuous or semi-continuous, the cell has an inlet for adding small seed particles and an outlet adjacent to the bottom for withdrawing large product particles.

摘要:
A process for the electrodeposition of metal onto the particles of a fluidised bed cathode is of particular use in the electro-winning of metals. Agglomeration of particles is substantially avoided by the elimination of sharp corners within the portion of the cell where there is electrodeposition and by the removal of particles from the fluidised bed cathode before they reach a size where they tend to lodge adjacent structural surfaces within the cathode compartment. Flow of electrolyte into the base of the cathode compartment may conveniently be distributed by a porous plate or a "V" shaped trough.
