Abstract

The possibility of recovering cadmium deposited on fibrous carbon electrodes from ammonium washing solutions formed in cadmium plating via operation of a short-circuited electrochemical system or anodic dissolution was examined. A polarization study of electrode processes that occur on a renewable graphite microelectrode in ammonium solutions of varied composition was carried out. The change in the properties of fibrous carbon electrodes in their cyclic use in electrodeposition-recovery of cadmium and the possibility of their repeated use were analyzed.
