Electrode assembly with rotary permeable electrode

Abstract From the Canadian patent

The disclosure is directed to an electrode assembly for effecting electrochemical reaction between two fluid phases the first of which is liquid, which apparatus comprises: an electrically charged electrode permeable to the fluids, said electrode being rotatable about an axis thereof means for supplying the first fluid phase to the electrode and, means for removing a reaction product of the two phases from the electrode, characterised in that the apparatus comprises: means for containing the first fluid phase in contact with and permeated within the electrode and, means for charging the second phase to said containing means so as to allow the first and second fluid phases to mix within the …
