Electrolytic recovery of metals from aqueous solutions containing complexing chelating agents such as EDTA, NTA, and citrate was studied in a two-chamber cell separating with a commercial cation-exchange membrane (CEM). Equimolar solutions of metal and a chelating agent as a catholyte and NaNO3 as an anolyte were used; the effect of current densities, initial catholyte and anolyte pH, metal concentration and the type of the CEM, chelating agent and metal on the recovery of metals was determined. The recovery of metal increased with higher initial anolyte pH, concentration and current density, whereas it decreased with lower initial catholyte pH. The results show that electrodeposition seems to be an applicable method for the recovery of metals under appropriate conditions.
