Instead of using filter bags hanging inside the electrolyte, i thought of a different system that should yield (in theory) cleaner crystals on the kathode.
I'm using a 5000ml beaker and inside it a 2000ml beaker
The impure Silver for example goes into the smaller beaker , and i position stainless steel bars or sheets along the walls of the 5000Ml beaker.
i did a drawing.. attached.
Like this electrons have to go Up instead of down with no risk of contamination of the electrolyte .
What do u guys think?
The electrolyte is just a few mm above the inner beaker to allow electron flow.
Anode is PT or pure Silver, Kathode Stainless steel sheets or bars, in case of a silver cell for example
