Chlor–alkali electrolysis
During electrolysis of brine (NaCl solution), Cl 2 is generated at the anode and NaOH is produced at the cathode. At the initial stage of chlor–alkali electrolysis, the main technical difficulty is the continuous separation of Cl 2 and NaOH. The concept of a current-permeable separator, which allows electric current to pass but keeps the anode and cathode …

Salt, Chlor-Alkali, and Related Heavy Chemicals
There are hundreds of inorganic salts, but only one of them, sodium chloride, is commonly referred to by the simple name "salt." Sodium chloride is ubiquitous, and the Salt Institute lists more than 14,000 uses [].Salt is a raw material in the production of many chemicals, including chlorine, caustic soda (sodium hydroxide), synthetic soda ash (sodium carbonate), …
The chlor-alkali process: Work in Progress
The chlor-alkali process has come a long way from the days of the diaphragm and mercury cell process to the present membrane cell process, with huge reduction in power consumption and hence its carbon footprint. Although there is reduction in the release of highly toxic mercury to the environment, there is increased release of less harmful substances such …
