Model and Mechanism of Anode Effect of an Electrochemical Cell for Nd or (Nd, Pr) Reduction
The anode effect can occur during neodymium and didymium oxide electrowinning, causing a surge in the electrochemical cell voltage, interrupting the process, and increasing the greenhouse gas emissions. In this work, we develop a mathematical model, based on the mass balance of gas bubbles evolving...
