Abstract

A method and system for electrolysis. The system includes a system and method for separately collecting hydrogen and oxygen gases produced by a plurality of anode and cathode plates, one of the anode or cathode plates surrounded by an envelope penetrable by an electrolyte solution and impervious to hydrogen and oxygen gas. The system includes an electrolytic cell which has a front end and a back end. The front end has a cathode electrode coupled to a cathode screw, and an anode electrode coupled to an anode screw. The screws are coupled to a spacer, which is coupled to an insert. Each insert is further coupled to a second insert. The coupling results in the plate being conductive. The plates each have at least two holes, a large hole and a small hole. The small hole makes contact with a spacer and/or an insert.
