The electrochemical behaviors of the molybdenum, graphite, and glassy carbon anode have been observed during the electrolysis of uranium chloride in an UCl3–LiCl–KCl molten salt. The cyclic voltammogram data of the molybdenum anode showed that Mo anode could be corroded by the formation of Mo compounds or its dissolution. However, the experimental data of the graphite and the glassy carbon anode showed that the chlorine evolution started from 1.2 V and the anode potential remained stable during uranium electrolysis. Therefore, the graphite and glassy carbon may be used as an inert anode in the electro-winning process of pyroprocessing.
