Abstract
An electrolytic process for producing hydrogen peroxide in an aqueous alkaline solution includes simultaneously passing an aqueous alkaline electrolyte and oxygen through a fluid permeable conductive cathode comprising reticulated vitreous carbon foam, separating the fluid permeable conductive cathode from an anode by a barrier and connecting the fluid permeable conductive electrode and the anode with an external power source to cause generation of hydrogen peroxide ion within the aqueous alkaline solution.
