Abstract

Concentration of dissolved hydrogen in electrolyzed water using a solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) water electrolyzer was investigated using a DH-meter. A ratio of the dissolved hydrogen content to an amount of hydrogen concentration calculated from charge passed during electrolysis was estimated. The ratio increased from 10 to 20% with a decrease in current density from 3.0 to 0.3 A dm −2. The effect of the linear velocity of water on the ratio of dissolved hydrogen was studied. The cross-sectional area of the water channel was changed to change the linear velocity of water. The ratio of dissolved hydrogen increased with increasing the velocity. Due to the fast mass transport by high velocity, the small hydrogen bubbles are fast transferred by the diffusion into the bulk water and dissolved. The population density of the small hydrogen bubbles is found to have an effect on the ratio of the dissolving hydrogen.
