Abstract
The cell voltage balance components of monopolar and bipolar electrolyzers were analyzed on the basis of calculations in terms of a mathematical model of the potential and current distributions along the cell height and tests of a laboratory electrolyzer of industrial height. Ways to diminish energy expenditure and to intensify diaphragm electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride solutions were substantiated theoretically and experimentally.
