Silver Refining Plants

Electrolysis is a technological process that utilise the electric energy generated from a current rectifier. The metal to be deposited (in this case pure Silver) is dissolved by an electrolytic bath called nitrate. The anodes to be refined are composed of basic scrap silver alloys. By means of a proper electromotive force and the characteristic of the electrolytic bath, discharged into the solution by the anodes, the silver migrate from anode to solution, then from solution to cathode.Once the operation is over, the silver deposited is melted and prepared for the following working phases.
