The thermoelectrochemistry (TEC), a novel cross discipline, is presented, i
ncluding the basic equations for a cell and a half-cell reaction, the treat
ment of experimental data and its application to electro-generative leachin
g of mineral and to measuring thermodynamic and kinetic data of an electrod
e reaction. The TEC technology will play an important part in the research
on the metallurgical process under various fields.
