Electrolysis device

Abstract

An electrolysis apparatus includes a reaction tank, at least one first electrode assembly, and at least one second electrode assembly. The reaction tank is adapted to contain an electrolyte. At least one first electrode assembly is disposed within the reaction tank, each first electrode assembly including a first electrode, a first electrode basket, and a pressure cover plate, wherein the first electrode is disposed within the first electrode basket, and the pressure cover plate covers the opening of the first electrode basket and presses against the first electrode. At least one second electrode assembly is disposed within the reaction tank, and a gap is formed between the at least one first electrode assembly and the at least one second electrode assembly. Because this electrolysis apparatus uses a pressure cover plate that presses against the first electrode, it can reduce contact resistance and thus improve electrolysis efficiency.
