The technology involves using standard electroplating process to create tin nanoneedles that do not shortciruit when the tin expands by one third during charging.

The electroplating process involved solutions of cyanide of silver and potassium cyanide.

The disposal of toxic waste from the electroplating process is never easy and always expensive.

As the electroplating process continues, the metal salts in the bath are used up.

Removed from the carbon, the gold undergoes an electroplating process, and is then melted and poured into 60-pound ingots.

So Bell conducted tests and found that it could pump the sludge back into its electroplating process three or four times before it needed to be dumped.

He patented the first commercial electroplating process.

"Women do the same jobs as men," she said, with one exception: Only the men load the heavy bars of tin needed in the electroplating process.

Other electroplating processes may use a non-consumable anode such as lead or carbon.

This test does not detect hydrophilic contaminants, but the electroplating process can displace these easily since the solutions are water-based.
