Abstract
In accordance with the present invention an electrochemical cell unit is comprised of: an anolyte compartment, catholyte compartment separated from each other by a pair of close spaced ionic (cationic/or anionic) membranes which together with a foraminous non-structural spacer therebetween form an intermediate compartment between the anolyte and catholyte compartments, respectively, which upon application of hydraulic pressure to the anolyte and/or the catholyte compartments reduce the cross membrane distance of the intermediate compartment to a minimum distance.
