Abstract
Industrial application of infrared techniques to monitor the electrolytic processing of copper in refineries located in Europe is described. The recent implementation of this approach allows us to detect incipient electrical shorts in the refinery tanks, thus making it possible to achieve substantial savings in electrical power, time, and product yield.
