Electrowinning of platinum using a modified cyclone cell was performed. It shows the effect of flow rate, which is correlated in terms of linear velocity solutions at an applied potential of 2V and PH of 3. Here the linear velocity of the ratio of the flow rate to the cross sectional area of inlet in the cyclone cell. The concentration of platinum drops exponentially high rate, due to a turbulent nature while linear like shapes appear for the laminar flow case of 0.6 ms-1, and the rate of removal of platinum from the solution increases with the flow rate.

Platinum is the most effective metal for any electrowinning process due to its current conducting property. Platinum being the most expensive material rational utilization of Platinum for the greater value ensures economical solution. Platinum covered Anodes is none but a rational utilization of platinum by plating limited quantity on to titanium to achieve the same result as using platinum metal.

The platinized anode is characterized by its three outstanding effects as an electrode material:-

1. It is stable, corrosion resistant and can be used in various media.

2. For the oxygen evolution reaction, the over potential is very high

3. For the hydrogen evolution reaction, the over potential is very low.

What is the process of electrowinning?

Electrowinning (or electroextraction) is a process of whereby metals, such as gold, silver and copper,are recovered from a solution by means of electrolyticchemical reaction. This takes place when an electric current is passed through the solution.

Why is electrowinning used?

Electrowinning is most commonly used to recover gold, silver, copper, cadmium, and zinc. Gold and silver are the most successfully recovered metalsbecause of their high electropotential. Chromium is the only metal commonly used in electroplating that is not recoverable by electrowinning.

What is the Difference between Electrowinning and Electrorefining?

Electrowinning is defined as the process in which the metals from their ores are put in the solution that is they are electrodeposited to liquefy the metals.

Whereas in electrorefining, it is defined as the process in which the impurities from the metal are removed.

Platinum coated (Platinized) Titanium Anodes are highly conductive anodes used in electroplating and other electronic applications. Platinum coated Titanium Anodes are generally immediately available in most volumes and can be fabricated in forms such as sheet, mesh, perforated plate, rod, or wire. We can also produce materials to custom specifications by request and research applications and new proprietary technologies.

Operation:-

Platinized anodes can be operated at very high current densities greater than 75A / dm²are typical. All of the current flows from the platinum coated portion of the anode surface. However, if this coating is damaged, current may also flow from the substrate material resulting in its premature failure. The primary limitation of platinized anodes is that the oxide film on the substrate can break down if excessive anode-to-electrolyte voltages are encountered. The practical limit for platinized titanium is 12 volts. Platinized niobium can be used at potentials as high as 100 volts.

Features of Platinum Plated Titanium Expanded Mesh Anode:-

Various shapes and sizes are available, including plates, Tube, rods and mesh.

Platinised titanium anodes combine the excellent electrochemical characteristics of platinum with the good corrosion qualities of titanium.  This anode is designed for Electro Plating application.

The advantage that these Titanium Anodes have over the two previous anode types and lead anodes is that the risk of additional toxic or hazardous substances being introduced into the electroplating line is eliminated, eradicating costs that arise from the removal of hazardous substances. They are also environmentally friendly and the fact that the inter-electrode gap remains constant throughout the design life of the anode means that the Titanium Anodes maintain constant voltage and product quality. Oxygen-evolving Titanium Anodes have lower anodic operating potentials and use of these anodes yields the additional advantage of the ability to re-use the anodes. Once the anodes have reached the end of their design life the necessary repairs can be made, the anodes can be cleaned and then re-coated.

Platinum plated titanium anodes have been effectively utilized in hard-chrome plating. However long reasonable electrolytes are utilized, a totally without lead process is generally conceivable without over the top expenses by just supplanting lead anodes with Pt/Ti anodes. Plating anodes utilizing high-temperature electrolysis offers two extra environmental advantages: Considerably longer life expectancy in light of better sturdiness. Saving utilization of platinum (which is made impervious to erosion through high-temperature electrolysis). Re-platinization of the base substrate implies that any current platinum can be renovated and reused, saving expenses.

One more advantage of the Platinised anode is that they require no finishing up because of the layered strength and the high-temperature electrolysis that permits up to 99.99% virtue in platinum coatings, as well as phenomenal grip and flexibility.
