The silver electrolysis process is carefully monitored and controlled in order to avoid operational and environmental problems. Short circuits can be avoided by monitoring the voltage of each individual cell, for example.

The following parameters are included in Outotec’s Automation System

• Individual cell voltage
  
• Electrolyte flow rate
  
• Cu-concentration
  
• Ag-concentration
  
• Current density
  
• Temperature
  
• pH
