摘要:
Metallic pieces of predetermined shape, e.g., anodes, are continuously manufactured from molten metal, e.g., impure molten copper, by continuously casting the molten metal in an inclined mold cavity (13) formed by two endless moving belts (14( and (15) and by two moving side dams (20) and (21) so as to produce a hot metallic strip (4), and by cutting the hot strip, when it has left the mold cavity, with at least one plasma torch (10) along a profile (27) such that anodes (11) with a low waste coefficient are obtained. In this way, flat copper anodes with a thickness of between 40 and 50 mm can be produced.

A zinc base powder for alkaline batteries consists of 0.05 to 3% of mercury, 0.003 to 0.2% of bismuth, 0.01 to 0.08% of lead, the rest being zinc. This powder has an excellent resistance to corrosion in alkaline medium.

In a process for producing sulphuric acid from roasting gas containing SO.sub.2, H.sub.2 O and Hg, comprising the steps of(a) drying the gas with H.sub.2 SO.sub.4(b) subjecting the gas to a catalytic oxidation treatment so as to produce a SO.sub.3 rich gas, and(c) absorbing the SO.sub.3 in concentrated sulphuric acid, while maintaining the concentration of this acid at its initial value by addition of diluted sulphuric acid, the gas from step (b) is scrubbed with oleum, thereby producing in step(c) H.sub.2 SO.sub.4 with less than 0.1 mg/l of Hg.

In an apparatus for conveying dripping electrodes, a drop collector having a plurality of parallel gutters is coupled to the conveying apparatus by a frame. The gutters are coupled together in one or more series of parallel gutters and are displaced by a motor driven endless chain system between a work position underneath the suspended dripping electrodes and a rest position which permits the electrodes to be inserted into or extracted from electrolysis cells by the conveying apparatus. The gutters include outlet orifices which communicate electrolyte from the dripping electrodes to a reservoir formed in the frame which couples the drop collector to the conveying apparatus.

摘要:
A process and apparatus for removing from an electrolytic cell cathodes having an electrolytic deposit thereon and replacing them with cathodes from which said electrolytic deposit has been removed, comprising: (a) simultaneously lifting a first subgroup comprising the even-numbered cathodes from a first cell and a second subgroup comprising the odd-numbered cathodes from a second, adjacent cell while maintaining the orientation and disposition of said cathodes; (b) conveying said subgroups to a stripping installation while moving said subgroups perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of said cells until a collinear unstripped set of cathodes is formed; (c) placing said collinear unstripped set of cathodes at the entry to said stripping installation; (d) lifting a collinear stripped set of cathodes from the exit of said stripping installation, said collinear stripped set having sequentially numbered stripped cathodes equal in number, orientation and disposition to said collinear unstripped set; (e) conveying said collinear stripped set of cathodes to two adjacent cells while separating said collinear stripped set into a third subgroup comprising the even-numbered cathodes and a fourth subgroup comprising the odd-numbered cathodes of said collinear stripped set, said separating achieved by moving said third and fourth subgroup perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of said cells; and (f) simultaneously placing the cathodes of said third and fourth subgroups in two adjacent cells in the positions from which a first and a second subgroup have been removed.
摘要:
In a process for treating a metal bearing material containing arsenic and antimony by leaching in an acid solution with an oxygen-containing gas under pressure at a temperature of between 20.degree. and 200.degree. C, the improvement which consists in adding at least one element chosen from the group consisting of arsenic and phosphorus in such an amount to the leach mixture that the molar ratio (As + 4P) : Sb therein shall be at least equal to 8, thus dissolving at least the major part of the arsenic and antimony contained in the starting material.

A process for separating cobalt from nickel in an aqueous acid solution containing the above metals, which comprises contacting said solution with an organic phase comprising (a) 65-98% by volume of a concentrated alpha-hydroxyoxime extractant, a 1% by volume solution of which in xylene has per liter a maximum loading capacity of about 0.864 g. of copper, and (b) 2-35% by volume of an organophosphoric acid of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents an alkyl, aryl or aralkyl radical, while maintaining the pH of said solution between 1 and 6, whereby cobalt is extracted from the aqueous phase to the organic phase and separating the resultant cobalt pregnant organic phase from the aqueous phase.
摘要:
A process for separating an electrolytic deposit of metal from a cathode, in which the bath-level edge of the said electrolytic deposit is locally heated at a plurality of spots to form local gaps between the said edge and the cathode, then the local gaps are enlarged by means of knives so as to unite them together and to form a large gap along the said edge, and then a wedge is operated from the said large gap to separate the entire deposit.

Removing the crust of oxide formed on the surface of a continuously casted copper bar by projecting a liquid (water or a rolling emulsion) under pressure of between 20 and 60 atmospheres against the periphery of the bar, the flow of the liquid under pressure being less than 50 liters/minute.
