The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Interest has grown in developing non-toxic electrolytes for gold electrodeposition to replace the conventional cyanide-based bath for long term sustainability of gold electroplating. One such alternative electrolyte is a solution containing thiosulphate and sulphite, which has been developed specially for microelectronics applications. However, at the end of the electrodeposition process, the spent electrolyte contains a significant amount of gold. This study has been initiated to investigate the feasibility of gold recovery from a spent thiosulphate-sulphite electrolyte. copyright The Electrochemical Society.
