Principles of Electrometallurgy by Teererai Kagura is a document available to read on EtoBox.

1) Electrorefining is a process that refines impure metal into a pure form using electrolysis. Silver is commonly electrorefined using an anode of impure silver and a cathode of pure silver in a solution of silver nitrate and nitric acid. 2) Factors like current density, electrolyte composition, and temperature affect the electrolysis process. A sufficient concentration of silver ions is needed for preferential deposition of silver at the cathode. 3) During silver electrorefining, impurities dissolve fr
