Abstract
Disclosed are electrode assemblies which can be used to build a monoplanar membrane electrolytic cell suitable for the production of chlorine, alkali metal hydroxides and hydrogen having at least one central electrode assembly sandwiched between two end electrode assemblies with membranes therebetween to form a closed cell. Several of these resulting electrolytic cells can be connected in series or parallel to form electrolyzers very suitable for the electrolysis of a solution of sodium chloride or potassium chloride.
