ENVIRONMENTAL AND RESOURCE SAVING ASPECTS OF ELECTROPLATING
Electroplated coatings are widely used in machine-building, automotive engineering, instrument making, aerospace engineering, and others due to their high physico-mechanical and performance indicators. However, they are “environmentally dirty”. The paper demonstrates the methods to ensure environmental friendliness and resource saving of electroplating industries. Authors' developments allow to decrease the consumption of energy required for the process and reduce the emissions of toxic substances.
