A hanger bar for use in electrolytic copper or zinc production cells comprising a steel reinforced bar with extra reinforcement at the contact points, the extra reinforcement being provided by a block of copper or a copper alloy having greater strength than the remainder of the bar.

Electrode suspension bars

An electrolytic cell, particularly one for use in the production of foil, in which the cathode comprises a rotating drum having a conforming anode spaced therefrom with a melded fibre interlayer. The interlayer remains stationary while the drum rotates over the fibrous surface, thereby breaking up the depleted barrier layer adjacent the cathode, avoiding arcing and reducing the tendency for the cathode deposit to grow in a modular manner.

Electrolytic cell

A method of electrowinning metals in which the anode comprises a foraminate container containing particulate material chosen from the group electrically conducting non-polarizing compound of a metal and a non-metallic element.

Electrowinning metals

Anodes of alloys, which may be fragmented and used in baskets, of passive film-forming metals and elements having atomic numbers 23-29 for use in electrowinning metals, methods of using such anodes, and electrowinning cells incorporating such anodes.
