Abstract

Se define un proceso de electrólisis para la recuperación de metal de una solución acuosa. Al electrolizar la solución el metal se deposita sobre una superficie de deposición de un cátodo. El proceso incluye el paso de inducir una densidad de corriente no -uniforme a través de la superficie de deposición a fin de formar áreas de elevada densidad de corriente Inter.-espaciadas por áreas de baja densidad de corriente. La diferencia entre las áreas de elevada densidad de corriente y baja densidad de corriente resulta suficiente para causar que la deposición de metal se concentre sobre las áreas de elevada densidad de corriente a fin de promover una deposición no-uniforme de metal a través de la superficie de deposición. Se define asimismo una celda electrolítica para la electro-recuperación de metal de una solución acuosa. La celda incluye un cátodo el cual incluye una superficie de deposición sobre la cual el metal se deposita ante la electrolización de la solución acuosa. Con la celda en condiciones operativas, la superficie de deposición presenta un campo eléctrico n-uniforme que presenta áreas de campo eléctrico Inter.-espaciadas con áreas de campo eléctrico débil. La diferencia entre las áreas de campo eléctrico fuerte y las áreas de campo eléctrico débil resulta suficiente para causar que la deposición de metal se concentre sobre las áreas de campo eléctrico fuerte a fin de promover una deposición no-uniforme de metal sobre la superficie.An electrolysis process is defined for the recovery of metal from an aqueous solution. When the solution is electrolyzed, the metal is deposited on a deposition surface of a cathode. The process includes the step of inducing a non-uniform current density across the deposition surface in order to form areas of high current density Inter.-spaced by areas of low current density. The difference between the areas of high current density and low current density is sufficient to cause the metal deposition to concentrate on the areas of high current density in order to promote a non-uniform deposition of metal across the surface. deposition An electrolytic cell is also defined for the electro-recovery of metal from an aqueous solution. The cell includes a cathode which includes a deposition surface on which the metal is deposited before the electrolization of the aqueous solution. With the cell in operational conditions, the deposition surface has an n-uniform electric field that has inter-spaced electric field areas with weak electric field areas. The difference between the strong electric field areas and the weak electric field areas is sufficient to cause the metal deposition to concentrate on the strong electric field areas in order to promote a non-uniform deposition of metal on the surface.
