ABSTRACT:
An electrolyzer assembly has an outer, cylindrical dielectric electrolyzer housing member having a top, bottom, and cylindrical side wall. In one embodiment, the housing member has a sealed top, an open bottom for electrolyte entry, and apertures through the side wall near the sealed top permitting flow of electrolyte through the apertures. A cylindrical anode and cathode pair is situated inside the housing member. The cathode is positioned concentrically within the anode. Electrolyte flows in the space between anode and cathode. The anode is spaced apart from the side wall, providing an electrolyte flow path through the resulting cylindrically-shaped space. Electrical connections through the top of the housing member extend downwardly therein to electrical connection elements projecting upwardly from the electrode pair. The assembly provides for ease of cleaning, as well as ease of refurbishing, and operates efficiently and economically in both forced and unforced flow conditions.
