A reactivation method for an electrolyzer for the production of sodium hydrochlorite and chlorate, equipped with interleaved plates acting as anodes and cathodes, wherein at least the anode plates are provided with foraminous sheets having an electrocatalytic coating and a planar profile, said sheets being applied to the anode plates by means of a multiplicity of connection points.

Method of reactivating an electrolyzer

The present invention relates to an improved electrolyzer for the production of sodium hydrochlorite and chlorate, equipped with interleaved plates acting as anodes and cathodes, wherein at least the anode plates are provided with foraminous sheets having an electrocatalytic coating and a planar profile, said sheets being applied to the anode plates by means of a multiplicity of connection points. The invention further discloses a reactivation method for electrolyzers fabricated according to the prior art teachings.

Electrolyzer for the production of sodium hypochlorite and chlorate

A dimensionally stable anode for high-speed galvanizing processes comprising a plurality of substantially parallel, foraminous layers, in electrical contact with each other, each layer comprising an inert, electroconductive substrate with an oxygen evolving electrocatalytic coating, characterized in that the current density of each individual layer is substantially the same and does not exceed the value corresponding to the minimum desired lifetime of the anode. The number of layers is sufficient to provide the total current density required for the high-speed galvanizing. The anode further comprises spacers suitable for preventing short-circuits.
