Abstract
A process and an apparatus for producing alkali metal hypohalite by passing an alkali metal brine solution through the anode compartment of an electrolytic cell in which the anode compartment and the cathode compartment are separated by a fluid impervious, anion-permeable membrane, providing an aqueous support catholyte into the cathode compartment, impressing an electric potential across the anode and cathode to evolve halogen at the anode and hydrogen at the cathode and recovering alkali metal hypohalite from the anode compartment.
