What is the difference between the plating cell and the powder cell?
The plating cell produces a coherent solid metal cathode that “plates” to the starter sheet inside the cell. It has a cathode area of 0.5 m2 and is typically used for concentrations above 1 g/l The powder cell produces a powder deposit, which is harvested using a flushing process. It has a cathode area of 1.0 m2 and is typically used for concentrations below 1 g/l.
