2.3. Electrowinning cell geometry and boundary conditions for simulation Copper electrowinning is the process of winning copper from an electrolyte to solid form on a cathode by passing an electric current through the electrolyte to attract copper ions to the cathode. In this demonstration approach, a simple channel cell was selected.

Multiple elements can be recovered from e-waste, including base metals such as copper (Cu), precious metals such as gold and silver, and critical metals such as palladium and other REEs (Balde et al., 2017).Among them, Cu has accounted for 10–25% of the metal contents in e-waste, which was higher than the Cu content found in raw and …
Work is devoted to studying electrowinning of precious metals, in particular gold, in rich cyanide solutions on three-dimensional cathodes of electronegative metals. The object studied is production solution obtained during cyanide leaching of gravitation concentrates containing about 95 g/m3 of gold, 30 g/m3 of silver, and 6.5 g/dm3 CN–. …
Electrowinning is the electrolytic process of "winning" or recovering dissolved metal using an applied potential. An example of an electrowon copper plate is shown in Fig. 7.1. This process is practiced extensively in the metals industry. Copper, zinc, and gold, as well as other metals are produced by this process.

Electrowinning is most often used to recover gold and silver from eluates produced by the elution of activated carbon. Some of the practical considerations involved in the design and operation of gold electrowinning cells are described in this chapter, including cell types, bullion removal, and special applications such as electrowinning from gravity …
Over the past 40 years, the copper mining industry has undergone a dramatic shift toward hydrometallurgical extraction of copper at the mine site. This has increased the importance of recovering high-purity copper by electrowinning. High-purity cathode production was achieved by implementing numerous technologies including …
Abstract A laboratory investigation on nickel and cobalt electrowinning procedure from dilute synthetic sulfate-based electrolytes (with concentrations less than 40 gr/l) in a non-circulating apparatus has been carried out in the presence of boric acid as a buffering agent. By perusing previous studies on the same subject, five levels were …
