    摘要: The electrolytic cell 1 for producing alkali hydroxide or hydrogen peroxide is divided into the anode compartment 3 and the cathode compartment 4 by the cation exchange membrane 2. The cathode compartment 4 is further divided by the anion exchange membrane 6 into the solution compartment 7 containing a concentrated aqueous solution of alkali hydroxide and the gas compartment accommodating the gas cathode 8. The anion exchange membrane 6 prevents the gas cathode 8 from coming into direct or indirect contact with the aqueous solution of alkali hydroxide. This leads to the extended life of the gas cathode. The above-mentioned arrangement is effective in large-sized electrolytic cells. Thus, the present invention can be applied to industrial electrolysis which has never been achieved with the conventional gas electrode.

    摘要: A method for brine electrolysis using a gas electrode and an electrolytic cell therefor, in which gas electrode 31 permeable to gas and liquid is arranged in cathode chamber 24 in contact with ion-exchange membrane 22. Sodium hydroxide produced on electrode substance 30 of gas electrode 31 easily penetrates the gas electrode and is recovered from the cathode chamber. No sodium hydroxide is produced within the ion-exchange membrane so that penetration of sodium hydroxide into the anode chamber is thereby prevented.

Plural vertical concave grooves may also be provided in an interval on the surface of the cathode crossing the horizontal grooves and/or convex portions.
