Popis: A new technique for the automatically controlled removal of residual electrodeposits from the cathode is presented. The discussion is based on theoretical electrode processes and laboratory experiments. The technique essentially consists of an industrial process potential controller which maintains the cathode in a noncorroding state while forcing the removal of the more electroactive residual metal deposits. The technique is both time and labor saving, and eliminates the additional need for cathode treating chemicals.
