Abstract
A bipolar-electrode type electrolytic cell for production of ozone is disclosed, including a plurality of solid electrolyte electrodes comprising a solid electrolyte ion exchange membrane having provided on opposing sides thereof an anode and a cathode, said electrodes positioned to form a plurality of electrode compartments between adjacent solid electrolyte electrodes, such that the anodes face each other to form anode compartments and the cathodes face each other to form cathode compartments, and between the side walls of the electrolytic cell and the solid electrolyte electrodes positioned closest to the cell side walls, wherein each of the anodes and the cathodes provided on the solid electrolyte electrodes are electrically connected to a different-polar electrode, respectively, which face the same direction and are present on adjacent solid electrolyte electrodes.
