Abstract
A three-dimensional current feeder has been introduced for fluidized bed electrodes (FBE) to improve the current distribution in the bed and to reduce the maldistribution of potential. Experimental results using this feeder show a five-fold increase in yield and a smaller increase in current efficiency.
