Electrolysis

The zinc is separated from the solution using an electric current. Metallic zinc is precipitated onto aluminium cathode plates where it is allowed to build up for about 36 hours.

The cathodes are then removed from the solution and replaced with new cathodes. The zinc is stripped from the aluminium plates using automatic stripping machines.
