It is essential to illustrate an analytical method to predict the start of passivation in copper electrorefining. CP diagrams could provide useful information such as the range of active dissolution, pre-passive, and passive zones of samples. In this study, wavelet series were employed to estimate passivation tendency from real-time domain …

Abstract Electrolytic copper refining allows one to obtain high-purity copper, so analyzing the main ways impurities transition into electrolysis products is a relevant problem. Solving it makes it possible to control the process when changing the composition of raw materials and, as a result, the content of impurities in the anodes. In this work, on …

The first patents for metal electrorefining, were for copper and were granted to James Elkington in England in 1865. The first copper refinery was built in Newark by Balbach Smelting and Refining Company in 1883. Early electrorefineries had difficulty producing firm cathode deposits of high purity copper.

Electrolytic refining is a process used to purify metals like copper. It involves using electricity to remove impurities from the metal. In the case of copper, impure copper is dissolved in an electrolyte solution, and when an electric current is applied, pure copper is deposited on the cathode. This process helps create high-quality, pure ...

The method used to extract copper from its ores depends on the nature of the ore. Sulfide ores such as chalcopyrite ( CuFeS2 C u F e S 2) are converted to copper by a different method from silicate, carbonate or sulfate ores.
