Definitions

  • Figure 1 depicts a cross-sectional view of one configuration of an electrolysis cell of the present invention.
  • the anodes useful in these cells are formed of conventional materials such as platinum, ruthenium or iridium. In addition, mixtures or alloys of these and other materials dispersed on a high surface area support may also be used. Conventional anodes which are particularly useful are described in commonly assigned U.S. Patent 4,294,608, as well as the aforementioned U.S. Patent 3,992,271.
  • the catalyst on the anode should be capable of high reactivity for the half cell reaction. 2H 2 O ⁇ 4H + 4e - + O 2 or H 2 ⁇ 2H + + 2e -
