Electrometallurgy involves metallurgical processes that take place in some form of electrolytic cell. This is also the case in an electrolytic cell. In 1996, NASA released a report describing experiments using a BLP electrolytic cell. The follicular probe is the cathode of an electrolytic cell. The mercury is recycled into the electrolytic cell. But, the cell with the smaller voltage charges, making it an electrolytic cell. An electrolytic cell is a kind of electrochemical cell. The Hofmann voltameter is often used as a small-scale electrolytic cell. The decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen can be performed in an electrolytic cell. Electroplating (e.g. of copper, silver, nickel or chromium) is done using an electrolytic cell. An electrolytic cell uses electrical energy to drive a non-spontaneous redox reaction. Electroplating (e.g., of copper, silver, nickel or chromium) is done using an electrolytic cell.
