Abstract

A new electrochemical process and apparatus for carrying it out characterized in that it comprises a mercury cathode-type electrolytic system for continuous electrolysis of a salt of a metal that forms an amalgam with mercury with continuous purification of the mercury cathode, which comprises, in combination, a electrolytic cell, a decomposition cell, a first conduit connecting the discharge end of the amalgam of the electrolytic cell with the inlet end of the decomposition cell amalgam, a second conduit connecting to the mercury discharge end of the cell of decomposition with the inlet end of the mercury of the electrolytic cell, a centrifuge connected to at least one of said ducts and a sedimentation unit connected to such a centrifuge.
