Solvent Extraction Electrowinning (SX/EW) Plant Design
Nov 08, 2015 · The operating philosophy is to maintain maximum flow to the SX while adjusting the tenor with changes in the rectifier amperage. Electrolyte flow to the cells is kept between to l/m/m 2 of the hode surface area. This represents a flow of m 3 /h per cell. This flow rate ensures a high concentration of copper at the boundary layer.
