Electrolytic cell with reduced inter-electrode gap

Improved electrolytic cell performance is obtained by modifying a standard box anode by increasing the width thereof by permanently deforming the anode mesh within the immediate vicinity of the anode post. Increases in anode width of from about 3 mm to about 12 mm, resulting in reduction of interele...

Zusammenfassung:Improved electrolytic cell performance is obtained by modifying a standard box anode by increasing the width thereof by permanently deforming the anode mesh within the immediate vicinity of the anode post. Increases in anode width of from about 3 mm to about 12 mm, resulting in reduction of interelectrode gap of about 1.5 mm to about 6 mm, have been found advantageous. Improvement is enhanced by the use of a polymer bonded asbestos diaphragm.
