Abstract
The present invention relates to an electrolytic device. The electrolytic device comprises at least one porous stirring electrode associated with at least one counter-electrode, as well as a method for treating the effluents with this device. These electrolytic device and method can be applied, for example, to the recovery, the recycling and the purification, in concentrated or dilute solution, of compounds exhibiting redox properties. The efficiency of the electrolytic device is clear in FIG. 3, which shows the amount of silver recovered with the electrode of the invention (3b) and with a non-stirring electrode (3a).
