Abstract
An electrolytic process using a horizontal electrolytic cell partitioned by a cation exchange membrane into an anode compartment and a cathode compartment is disclosed which is characterized by supplying into the cathode compartment catholyte liquor at a flow rate satisfying the equation; EQU Y.gtoreq.9 log.sub.10 X+11 wherein Y is initial linear velocity (cm/sec) of the catholyte liquor containing no cathode gas or containing cathode gas in an extremely small amount, and X is length (m) of a passageway of the catholyte liquor in the cathode compartment.
