Abstract

Electrolysis of a dilute (0.89%) NaCl solution is studied in flow-through conditions. Accelerating the flow dramatically decreases the chlorate yield and increases the efficiency and stability of the electrolyzing-cell operation. The best results are obtained in a cell with titanium electrodes that have a disperse platinum coating with a roughness factor of 200, with the anodes periodically subjected to cathodic activation.
