Abstract
An anode of a mixture of reducing agent and metal oxide particulates is inserted into an electrolytic solvent bath under compression. In forming the particulate anode, the materials of construction are selected such that there is a minimum number of particle contacts. In such a selection, the contact surface area is important and is determined primarily by particle size. The compression of the anode is maintained to deform the particles during electrolysis.
