ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for producing hydrogen peroxide in caustic solution utilizing an electrolytic cell having electrolytes, preferably, alkaline in both anode and cathode compartments separated by a bipolar membrane which splits water into hydrogen ions and hydroxyl ions. Electrolysis of oxygen which diffuses through a gas-diffusion cathode forms peroxide in catholyte while hydrogen ions generated within the bipolar membrane migrate into the catholyte. Peroxide can be produced in the catholyte as a cell product having a caustic to peroxide ratio of less than 1.0 at five percent peroxide, by weight.
