Abstract

A hypochlorite cell divided by an anionic membrane was examined. The results clearly show that it is possible to suppress cathodic reduction of hypochlorite and to achieve a higher degree of chloride to hypochlorite conversion, at relatively high current efficiencies, than in the case of an undivided cell, using seawater or untreated diluted brine electrolyte.
