ABSTRACT:
Device or apparatus for electrolyzing natural and synthetic brines for producing hypochlorite includes an improved chassis structure supporting and cooperating with electrode plates to form a series of electrolytic cells which are easily assembled into a cylindrical casing member to form an electrolyzer. The invention and/or apparatus is characterized by (a) rapid gas removal; (b) improved electrode plate configuration through which the electrolyte is caused to flow in a vigorous and turbulent manner to eliminate fouling of electrode arrays by precipitates and scales formed during electrolysis of natural brines; (c) novel dilution water distribution means for synthetic brine electrolysis; and (d) a series-parallel electrical conductor arrangement which is electrically balanced against changes in electrolyte temperature and salinity; all of which result in a highly efficient, economical, energy-saving, rugged, modular-type device.
