Disclosed are a process and an apparatus for electrolytically producing a metal from a liquid electrolyte containing a compound of the metal. The apparatus comprises a rotatable cathode drum and an anode inside the cathode. The cathode drum contains therein the electrolyte and a particulate material which is insoluble in the electrolyte under conditions of the electrolysis and is freely movable in the rotatable drum. By this way, the produced metal deposits inside the rotatable drum, typically on the particulate material, not on an inner surface of the drum. The particulate material is preferably a metal, especially the same metal as the metal produced by the electrolysis.
