Industrial Application of Pb–Ag–Ca Anode with Surface Passivation for Zinc Electrowinning

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Pb–Ag–Ca alloy anode with surface passivation was applied in industrial production of zinc electrowinning. The application situation was investigated by detection and tracking more than 3 months. The results were analyzed by comparison with the data acquired from the production using the reference anodes without surface treatment. The results showed that using the anode with surface passivation can increase zinc yield, reduce Pb content in zinc product, prolong the anode life by improving the corrosion resistance, and then reduce the production costs.
