Yesan Plant 2

Yesan Electrolysis Plant refines the anode plate that is made in the Dry Refinery through electrolysis to recover high-purity cathode copper.
The oxides of valuable metals recovered from the electrolysis process and the active materials are transferred to our Anseong Plant to produce high-purity gold, silver, and palladium through the wet refinery process.

Electrolysis process to produce cathode copper and other valuable metals

In this process, the atomized metallic ingots are put through electrolysis.
The anode plate and cathode plant (Ti or SUS) prepared from the metal ingots are put into a tank
of electrolytes, where the anode plates are melted by applying an electric current, and the electrolytes are precipitated on the mobile cathode plate to produce high-purity copper.

The production process for cathode copper is a slurry containing valuable metals and recovery of Au, CU, Pd, Li, etc.

Separated metallic ions are utilized electrically to produce cathode copper.
The production of cathode copper accompanies the production of other valuable metals. The valuable metals that are extracted from cathode copper are refined once again before they can be used as raw materials.
