Capenhurst cell

CEER process — (Capenhurst electrolytic etchant regeneration process) Electrochemical process for continuous copper removal from printed circuit board etching solutions employing either cupric chloride or ammoniacal etchant. In a cell divided by a cation exchange membrane the etching process is essentially reversed. In case of the cupric chloride etchant the etchant solution is pumped to the anode, the processes are at the...
