Abstract

The present invention relates to electrochemical cells and electrochemical systems using a one piece or unitary electrode plate hereinafter also referred to as a double electrode plate (DEP) which serves to electrically connect two adjacent cell compartments and wherein the current flow in the electrodes is parallel to the working face of the electrode. In the cell designs disclosed, the cells are assembled as a contiguous stack of cells (cell stack) appearing similar to a filter press where the electrical connections between adjacent cells are made using the double electrode plate.

Description

field of invention [0001] The invention relates to the design of an electrochemical cell and an electrochemical system, and more specifically relates to an electrode support plate suitable for single-stack and multi-stack electrochemical systems. Background technique [0002] Electrosynthesis is a production method of a chemical reaction driven by passing an electric current, typically direct current (DC), through an electrolyte located between an anode electrode and a cathode electrode. Electrochemical cells are used for chemical reactions, which include a number of cathode and anode electrodes immersed in the electrolyte, and the current flowing between these electrodes is generated by an external power source. In the absence of parasitic reactions, the reaction yield will be proportional to the magnitude of the current. For example, in a liquid alkaline water electrolyzer, a direct current (DC) is passed between two electrodes located in the water electrolyte, splitting ...
