ABSTRACT:
An electrochemical cell and the method to operate same are described. The cell comprises at least two compartments, first and second, separated by a semipermeable membrane, said compartments containing first and second solvent, electrolyte and electrode.
The first compartment is subdivided by a membrane which behaves as a bipolar electrode during the passage of electric current. The bipolar character of the membrane arises due to the evolution of certain atomic or molecular species on one side of the membrane and the ionization of said atomic or molecular species on the opposite side of the membrane. Said electrode also allows recharging of the second electrode. Means of protecting the second electrode from corrosion due to the presence of the first solvent in the second solvent are also described.
