Product Description

I. What Is a Titanium Electrolytic Cell?

A titanium electrolytic cell is an electrochemical reaction device constructed primarily of industrial-grade pure titanium or titanium alloys, combined with an MMO (mixed metal oxide) anode. It is primarily used to generate gas, sterilize and disinfect, or convert chemical substances during the electrolysis process.

Compared to traditional electrolytic cells, such as those with graphite or lead electrodes, titanium electrolytic cells offer superior corrosion resistance and a longer service life, making them particularly suitable for high-salt, high-chlorine, and highly corrosive environments.

Currently, titanium-based MMO electrolytic cells have become core equipment in the following fields:

1. Saltwater electrolysis for chlorine production

2. Seawater electrolysis systems

3 Sodium hypochlorite generators

4 Electrolytic disinfection equipment

5 Industrial water treatment systems

II. How Do Titanium Electrolysis Cells Work?

The core principle of titanium electrolysis cells is electrochemical reaction.

When energized:

1.Anode (MMO-coated titanium electrode): Oxidation reaction occurs

Chloride ions are converted into chlorine gas

Or water is converted into oxygen

2. At the cathode (typically made of titanium or stainless steel), a reduction reaction occurs:

Water is converted into hydrogen gas and hydroxide ions.

Taking saltwater electrolysis as an example:

Sodium chloride reacts with water to produce sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen gas.

By controlling the current density, voltage, and electrode spacing, a stable and efficient electrolysis process can be achieved.
