Introduction to electrolyzer

The electrolytic cell consists of a cell body, an anode and a cathode. Most of them use a diaphragm to separate the anode chamber and cathode chamber. According to the different electrolytes, they are divided into three categories: aqueous solution electrolyzers, molten salt electrolyzers and non-aqueous solution electrolyzers. When direct current passes through the electrolytic cell, an oxidation reaction occurs at the interface between the anode and the solution, and a reduction reaction occurs at the interface between the cathode and the solution to produce the desired product. Optimizing the design of the electrolytic cell structure and rationally selecting electrode and diaphragm materials are the keys to improving current efficiency, reducing cell voltage, and saving energy consumption.
