Bureau of Mines Collection - C-827-BC Control Laboratory, ElectroReduction unit, Titanium Research Section ["In this laboratory, salt mixtures are prepared and analyzed in connection with the electrowinning of titanium. Many very reactive metals can be prepared most satisfactorily by electrowinning which consists of passing an electric current through a melted compound of the element. The current acts to decompose the compound and deposit the pure metal. Other small laboratories are available in this section."]
