Title: Electrorefining Process for Lunar Free Metal: Space & Terrestrial Applications and Implications
Summary / Review : Electrorefining is an electrolytic process whereby the anodes are the unrefined metal, in this case made from lunar free metal with many impurities, which corrodes when current is passed thru the acidic electrolytic fluid, whereby pure metal electroplates to the cathodes. It is similar to another process called electrowinning.
