Abstract

An aqueous solution of alkane sulfonic acid and inorganic nitrate used to strip metals from substrate surfaces, such as in stripping tin or tin-lead from copper surfaces, is regenerated by subjecting it to electrolysis to case dissolved stripped metals therein to deposit in metallic form on the surfaces of a cathode.
