In the present work modeling and design of packed bed electrochemical reactor operating under limiting current conditions has been accomplished. The conditions at which simulation model is made are: steady state, one-dimensional,flow-through operation.The considered reaction is copper deposition from an electrolyte solution containing copperic sulfate and sulfuric acid as a supporting electrolyte with the assumption of the absence of side reactions, the bed is packed with spherical particles.The effect of three parameters such that: electrolyte
