- Power supply1000A/12V high frequency pulse rectifier
What This Machine Does
This machine refines copper alloy of 80% purity or above to 99.9% or 99.99% copper.
Alloy copper is the anode and stainless steel the cathode; copper dissolves into the prepared electrolyte and deposits on the cathode as high purity metallic copper.
Metal that is insoluble in the solution stays in the anode bag, which is how copper is separated from the other metals.
What You Get
- Intelligent electrolysis technology uses only a small amount of electricity, improving efficiency and lowering environmental impact.
- Full anti-corrosion design gives long part life and stable operation.
- 9999 high purity copper is extracted more quickly and efficiently.
- Compared with traditional chemical copper refining only some electrolyte solution is used, which greatly reduces chemical cost and is safer to operate.
- Fully automatic operation saves labour and makes the process safer and more convenient.
Who Buys It
- Copper recyclers upgrading alloy scrap
- Refiners separating copper from mixed metal feeds
- Wire and rod producers needing high purity cathode copper
- Plants that need both basket and plate anode handling
What It Fixes
- 80% copper alloy sells at a discount that reflects the impurities, not the copper.
- Chemical copper refining uses a lot of reagent and is hazardous to operate.
- Manual operation at production scale is slow and labour heavy.
- Without an anode bag the insoluble metals contaminate the deposit.
How It Is Built
- 12mm A grade PP plate welded and reinforced cell
- 1000A/12V high frequency pulse rectifier
- 80% purity red copper anode with anode bag
- Copper sheet cathode
- Sulfuric acid electrolyte solution
- Exhaust outlet and water inlet and outlet piping supplied
- Anode handled as copper plate or in a hanging basket

Running The Machine
Step
Prepare the copper alloy anode with a copper content greater than 80%, as plates or in the hanging basket, and fit the anode bag.
Step
Install the cathode sheets and prepare the sulfuric acid electrolyte.
Step
Connect the 1000A/12V high frequency pulse rectifier.
Step
Run electrolysis so the copper alloy dissolves into the electrolyte and deposits on the cathode as high purity copper.
Step
Recover the insoluble metals left in the anode bag.
Step
Harvest the cathode copper at 99.9-99.99%.
Questions About The Copper Electrolysis Refining Machine For 80 Percent Copper To 99.9 Percent
What input copper does it need?
Copper alloy with a copper content greater than 80%.
What capacities are offered?
3KG/24H and 50KG/24H.
How is copper separated from the other metals?
Metals insoluble in the electrolyte stay behind in the anode bag while copper dissolves and deposits on the cathode.
What size is the cell?
1300 x 800 x 850 mm, and it can be customised.
What rectifier is supplied?
A 1000A/12V high frequency pulse rectifier.
How does it compare with chemical refining on cost?
It uses only some electrolyte solution rather than a full chemical process, which greatly reduces chemical cost and is safer to operate.
