Abstract
The invention relates to the cooling and purification of exit gases from an electrolysis installation, such as an installation for electrolysis of water under pressure. Above each degasser (7) is placed a chamber (1) containing a volume (3) of pure water, cooled by a cooling circuit (2). The gas bubbles are led into the chamber (1) by conduit (5), traverse the volume of pure cooled water (3) and leave purified by way of upper outlet (4). The invention finds use in the industrial production of hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis of water.
