Photo-assisted electrochemical copper removal from cyanide solutions using porous TiO2 thin film photo-anodes

TiO2 porous films were prepared on ITO coated glass slides by the sol-gel dip-coating method assisted with Polyethylene glycol (PEG). The films were used as photo-anodes in the photo-assisted electrolytic removal of cuprous ions in cyanide media. These were characterized by SEM, UV-Visible spectrosc...
