  • the other half amount of oxygen corresponding to 1/2 0 2 comes from the electrolysis of the anode (arrow pointing vertically upwards) and must also be brought to the cathode side in some way.
  • the new process does not bind to any liquid electrolytes in any way and that it can work completely free of salt concentrations or additional base or acid components.
  • the Na compound does not primarily serve as an electrolyte, although the Na + ions contribute to the conductivity.
  • the example according to FIG. 5 basically represents a combination of an electrolytic cell for generating H 2 0 2 with a chlorine / alkali cell.
  • the electrolytic cell used to carry out the method had, as solid electrolyte 1, a membrane made of a perfluorinated polymer with sulfonic acids with the trade name "Nafion 120" from Du Pont.
  • This Nafion film was provided on the positive side with a gas-permeable coating 2 made of a noble metal mixed oxide acting as an anode, in this case according to the formula (Ru 0.5 Ir 0.5 ) O 2 .
  • the negative side carried the gas-permeable coating 3 acting as a cathode in the form of a graphite coating.

  • the anode chamber 9 was connected via the water supply line 13 (feed) and the regulating valve 14 fed with deionized water at 80 ° C.
  • the cathode chamber 11 was supplied with a humidified 0 2 stream of approximately 1 l / h via the connector 12.
  • a cell designed according to Example I was installed in a gas-tight pressure vessel 7 closed at the bottom by a base plate 8.
  • the mounted on the lower end faces of the anode chamber 9 and the cathode chamber 11 openings were passed through the base plate 8 and to the water supply 13 or the H 2 0 2 19 Dissipation (Removal) connected.
  • the pressure vessel 7 was now filled by feeding water through the water supply line 13 and the regulating valve 14 up to the level control 16 mark.
  • the entire pressure vessel 7 was then placed under a pressure p of 10 MPa on both the gas and water side.
  • the valve 18 for keeping the pressure constant (p) ensured that this pressure was maintained. It goes without saying that the oxygen-containing gas supplied via the supply line 17 (in the present case compressed air N 2 + 0 2 ) and the water fed in via the supply line 13 must also be supplied to the device at least under this pressure. Then the device was put into operation by connecting a current source (see FIG. 5 in FIG. 1) to the current collectors 4 and switching on the circulation pump 15. With a DC voltage of 1.4 V and a regulated compressed air supply of 0.5 1 / h, a current density of 100 mA / cm 2 was achieved. The H 2 0 2 content of the aqueous solution removed was on average 3% by weight.
  • the invention is not restricted to the exemplary embodiments.
  • the method can also be carried out with starting materials other than pure water and oxygen or air. It is largely independent of the salt concentration of the starting solution.
  • the selection of the appropriate media, whether more or less pure water, aqueous salt solution or alkaline or otherwise basic solution, is determined solely by the end product to be aimed at or its suitability for use: e.g. Tap water to brackish water up to 5 g / 1 salinity.
