Abstract
Hydrometallurgical methods have been developed for recycling anode slime from the electrolysis of copper. The methods eliminate the need for the production and electrolytic refining of Dorr alloys and the use of costly systems for cleaning the process gases and processing large quantities of by-products. The commercial products of the new methods are metallic gold and silver (99.99%) and concentrates of nonferrous metals.
