Abstract

This paper presents a theoretical and experimental study of the effectiveness of fixed flow-through electrodes working at very low local overpotentials. An analogy is established between such systems and gas-solid catalytic reactors; a generalisation which extends the treatment to high overpotential operating conditions is also presented. The study establishes the pertinent parameters of the electrode and outlines the conditions for its 3-dimensional behaviour.
