The hydrometallurgy of copper . Fig. 51.—Coffin revolving cathode apparatus. Another method of accomplishing the same purpose is to force air intothe tank and electrolyte while the electrolysis is in progress. Careshould be used if the electrolyte is agitated with air, that the agitation isquite uniform, in all parts of the electrolyzer. Sometimes stirrers,working reciprocally between the electrodes are used to better advantagethan air, and the agitation is likely to be more uniform. The electrolyte,impinging against the cathodes in jets has given good results, but is now ELECTROLYTIC PROCESSE
