Question:

Are you aware of any publications or literature that describe industrial circuits that can produce electrolytic iron? It was a common practice in the first half of the 20th century but as such have had difficulty locating information on the subject.

Answer:

I am not aware of any literature on the manufacturing of electrolytic iron powder.
Before import restrictions were lifted in India, a number of companies made iron powder by the electrolytic route for the powder metallurgy and other industries. One such company is Industrial Metal Powders India Pvt. Ltd, in Pune, India (www.imp.net.in).
