Everyone, is electrolysis used in metal smelting? I pursued my master’s degree in electrochemistry, focusing on electrolysis and electroplating. I’m interested in working with copper electrolysis; I wonder if copper processing companies need expertise in electrochemistry? What are the copper enterprises in China?
Jiangxi Copper, Yunnan Copper, Tongling Nonferrous Metals, and others. There are still quite a few, but the metal market is not doing well at the moment. Wish you luck in finding the ideal job.
Shandong-Yanggu Xiangguang Copper Industry is the largest, right?
Guiyi, Yongping Copper Mine, and Dexing Copper Mine, which are under Jiangxi Copper – the latter also produces 6 tons of gold as a by-product each year
Copper electrolysis and electrowinning are based on electrochemical principles; those with a master’s degree in electrochemistry can work in copper electrolysis companies. One of my colleagues, for example, has a background in chemistry. 100 major copper enterprises in China: 1. Jiangxi Copper Group Co., Ltd. 2. Tongling Nonferrous Metals Group Holding Co., Ltd. 3.

Electrochemistry? You should go get batteries now!
The largest producers of electrolytic copper in terms of production capacity are Shandong Xiangguang, Tongling Erye, and Guangxi Jinchuan – all of them were designed to produce 400,000 tons of copper per year, but in reality they are able to produce 500,000 tons each. Electrolytic copper is already very mature; there’s no point in pursuing it.
No one wants lithium batteries; I’ve tried applying for them several times, but the approach isn’t right. My area of expertise is electroplating and electrolysis
Is there much research on the use of additives during the electrodeposition process?
