## Abstract The removal of hexavalent chromium from a synthetic solution and from an industrial sample by electrolysis using stainless steel plate and titanium mesh cathodes is studied. It is found that the process proceeds in two steps: (1) electroreduction of hexavalent chromium to trivalent chro

โฆ Synopsis
Electrolysis of metal ions in dilute solutions using vertical planar electrodes results in low recovery . Therefore, an electrolytic cell arranged concentrically with extended cathode surface areas was designed to improve the rate of mass transfer. Three types of gold solutions obtained from industrial sites were used . Despite an initial gold level of 110 mg 1 -1 , the electrolytic cell was effective in reducing the gold concentration to as low as 0 .1 mg 1 -' .
