An electrolytic cell may include a cathode half-cell having a cathode, an anode half-cell having an anode, and a separator that separates the two half-cells from one another and that is permeable to electrolyte present in the half-cells during operation. At least one inlet for electrolyte is provided in a first half-cell of the two half-cells, and at least one outlet for electrolyte and no inlet for electrolyte are provided in the second half-cell such that electrolyte supplied via the at least one inlet is dischargeable via the at least one outlet after passing through the separator. A method can also be utilized to operate such an electrolytic cell. And an electrolyzer may include multiple of such electrolytic cells.

Electrolytic cell, method for operating a cell of this type and electrolyser

Methods for providing at least one product stream, in particular hydrogen, by electrolysis by means of an electrolyzer having a multiplicity of electrolysis cells combined to form at least one framework; wherein electrolyte is discharged from the cells and separated into two phases. The electrolyte is collected upstream of a pump system. At least the functions of discharge and collection are carried out integrally together in a multifunctional collection container or in an integral method step, in particular by means of at least one multifunctional collection container with a regulatable filling level coupled to the cells. This extends the functionality and also provides an advantageous design construction. The invention furthermore relates to a corresponding electrolysis device and to a corresponding multifunctional collection container.

Method and device for providing at least one product stream by electrolysis and use

There is provided a solid-contact ion-selective electrode having a high potential stability and potential reproducibility. The ion-selective electrode includes an ion sensitive film having a Group-1 element ion, a Group-2 element ion, a hydronium ion or an ammonium ion as a target ion, an ion occluding material layer, and a conductive electrode, wherein the ion occluding material contained in the ion occludes material layer occluding the target ion, the ion occluding material being a Prussian blue analog represented by the structure formula AM[M'(CN)]&#x25a1;.kHO. Herein, A is one type or a plurality of types of Group-1 elements, Group-2 elements, hydronium, or ammonium; M and M&#x2032; are one type or a plurality of types of transition metals; M or M&#x2032; includes at least one of nickel, cobalt, copper, silver, and cadmium; &#x25a1; is a vacancy in a porous coordination polymer; x and y are greater than zero; and a, z, and k are numbers equal to or greater than zero.
