Electrowinning 101

Electrowinning is a widely used technology in modern metal recovery, mining, refining and wastewater treatment applications. But before we dive deeper into understanding electrowinning let us look more generally at what an electrolytic process is, since electrowinning is an electrolytic process.

Too many people take videos like this for granted. It took time, energy, planning, and money to make this video, not to mention you are sharing valuable information, that prior to social media would have required months (if not years) to learn. I myself cannot put a price on such a thing. I know it's taken a lot to make this video, and your others, and share them with the world, I appreciate it more than you will ever know.

I had watched several videos, but only this one helped me to understand the process, thank u.

Thanks for the feedback Elana. We will keep producing educational videos to help engineers worldwide.

[@lavernekayombo6944]

Thank you for your video. Really educative.

How about selectivity towards different metals? I’m trying to recycle vanadium from a mixed solution with V(V) and Fe(III) in order for it to be reused as a flow cell reagent, but they seem to either come out as solid together or both stay in the solution.

Chelates in solvent extraction. Can't explain more but I worked at a refinery where we were selectively extracting Cu from a solution with other dissolved metals. We used an organic extractant that selectively extracted Cu . The selectivity was 2000 Cu: 1 Fe..

Can I plug battery charger to supply dc current to the electrolyte mixture of sulfuric acid solution attaching two metal plates on both terminals to serve as cathode and anode

[@emewCorporation]

Hello, it is possible but you should be careful not to exceed the current.

[@safreedinternational6461]

Pls, what exactly will I do to prevent exceeding current.

Not useful What is Electrowinning ? You never answered the question or defined it.

[@aidenmarsh1044]

i thought they did i basically got that from the explanation that its running a electrical current through a cathode and anode placed into a liquid solution of particular metal concentrations to attract the desired metal to the cathode.
