ABSTRACT:
An electrolytic cell for the electrolysis of a sodium chloride solution includes a cathode compartment having therein a cathode for producing hydrogen during electrolysis and an anode compartment having therein an anode for producing chlorine gas during electrolysis. A single conduit is at the bottom of the cell for charging sodium chloride solution into the compartments and for discharging therefrom solutions resulting from electrolysis. A porous partition substantially separates the compartments and has a lower end terminating above the bottom of the cell at the single conduit, such that the lower ends of the compartments are in free communication. A mixing chamber is connected to the upper ends of the two compartments to mix the hydrogen and chlorine gas and to dynamically balance the pressures in the two compartments, thereby preventing mixing of the products of electrolysis from the two compartments.
