Abstract
► In non-divided cells, antimony did not deposit at cathode due to oxidation of Sb(III) at anode. ► Copper and graphite were found to be the most suitable electrode materials for antimony deposition. ► Sb species covering electrode lowers deposition efficiency with time. ► Thus, periodical renewal of cathode material is necessary. ► Calculated specific electroenergy consumption was relatively high. ► In contrast, absolute energy consumption was low due to small quantities of antimony removed.
