ELECTROLYSIS CELL

Abstract: an electrolysis cell for chlor-alkali or alkaline water electrolysis comprises two cell elements each defining an electrode chamber by providing a back wall and sidewalls of the electrode chambers, an electrode accommodated in each of the electrode chambers, and a sheet-like separator extending in a height direction and a width direction of the electrolysis cell, the separator being interposed in a joint between the two cell elements and providing a separating wall between the electrode chambers, wherein at least one of the electrodes is made from a sheet of metallic mesh, which is supported by a plurality of webs attached to the back wall of the respective electrode chamber, the webs extending in the height direction of the electrolysis cell, and wherein a plurality of ribs extending in the width direction of the electrolysis cell is carried by the webs, wherein the electrode is disposed on the plurality of ribs.
