Electrolyzing sodium chloride to produce sodium chlorate – is it necessary to keep chlorine under pressure in a sealed environment? . Sodium chlorate can be produced only in this way
Thread Content
If no pressure is applied. . Will the chlorine gas escape? It will not dissolve in the solution. It will not react with sodium hydroxide. To form sodium chlorate. . Apply pressure. How much pressure is appropriate
Pressuring the electrolyzer is an extremely difficult task
Why has it become so difficult? . . It’s easy to apply pressure
No pressure is required; chlorine can react directly with sodium hydroxide. If you use sodium chlorate, just control the temperature properly
Your description is too vague. Are you referring to the production of sodium chlorate in an electrolyzer? That won’t work; the method of electrolyzing saltwater is not used for producing sodium chlorate.
By maintaining an appropriate acidity in the sodium chloride solution, sodium chlorate can be produced directly in an electrolyzer; the concentration can reach 600 g/l. However, sodium aluminate must be added as a catalyst. Ion-exchange membrane electrolyzers are not suitable for this process, as the formation of trace amounts of sodium chlorate is a side reaction
How much wastewater is generated from the electrolysis of sodium chloride? I don’t know the production volume; I only know that the area occupied by the electrolysis units is 3,440 square meters
Bro, can we discuss the process issues related to the electrolytic production of sodium chlorate?
