ABSTRACT:
The advanced pressure electrolysis cell-(APEC Project) combines a conventional electrolysis function with the applying of external pressure on the enclosed water/electrolyte for accelerated gas passage through the permeable tubular electrode walls.
The key feature of the P/E cell unit is in combining the usual electrolysis electrodes with porous permeable metal to allow controlled gas passage through the electrode tubes under a pressure differential between the electrolyte zone and the gas passage zone.
A hydrophobic plastic coating is required over the porous electrode tubes to prevent water seepage, and minimize pore clogging due to the pressurized electrolyte.
The electrodes may be made in the form of tubes, discs or plates to allow for the construction of various forms of cell configuration.
A low frequency vibratory input is provided for the cell/unit to give a "sieving effect" to the gas molecules, as they permeate through the electrode walls.
