FIELD: metallurgy.
SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for electrochemical isolation of metal chosen from the group consisting of copper, tin, manganese, zinc, nickel, chrome and cobalt, from solutions, containing metal ions. Cell contains anode chamber, cathode chamber allowing falling cathode layer in the form of growing metal balls and separated from the anode chamber by means of electrically isolating diaphragm and vertical external pipeline for passing of upstream of metal balls and electrolyte, directed for feeding of cathode layer. At least one ejector located inside external pipeline nearby its foundation or nearby the bottom of cathode chamber or on the outside of the cell in hydraulic communication with the bottom of cathode chamber is provided for installation of metallic balls and electrolyte upstream. Cell is described by process continuity of metal extraction, more simple for control and operation.
EFFECT: providing of process continuity of metal extraction.
