Abstract
A bipolar electrolyzer is provided which includes a plurality of bipolar electrode sub-assemblies which position the electrodes in the cells in a manner such that improved electrical operating characteristics are achieved. Each bipolar electrode sub-assembly includes an alternating stack of electrically insulating spacer members and bipolar electrodes. Electrodes are horizontally received in a channel in the electrically insulating spacer members which fixes the spaced relationship between juxtapositioned anodes and cathodes.
