CONSTITUTION:The concn. of Zn ions in a galvanizing soln. used in galvanizing with an insoluble anode lowers in accordance with the progress of a galvanizing reaction. When the concn. lowers, the galvanizing soln. 2 is circulated in a Zn dissolution vessel 1 contg. metallic Zn powder or granules 5 and bars 6 of a metal having higher electric potential than Zn, e.g., Pt, Au, Ag, Pd, In, Nb, Fe, Cr, Mo, Ni, Cd, Co or Sn in a net 4 made of a metal having higher electric potential than Zn in the direction of arrows through filter cloth 3. The metallic Zn 5 is rapidly dissolved in the galvanizing soln. 2 by the presence of the bars 6 and the net 4 having higher electric potential to rapidly raise the concn. of Zn ions in the soln. 2 to a prescribed value.
