Electrorefining

Electrorefining is an electrochemical purification process in which impure non-ferrous metals are selectively oxidized at an anode and subsequently reduced in pure form at a cathode through controlled electrolysis, distinguishing it from alternative refining methods by its reliance on electrical current to separate metal from impurities in an aqueous electrolyte system.
