Abstract

AbstractSeawater desalination technology is important for solving water shortage problems. RO desalination is the most frequently used process for obtaining fresh water from salt water. Electrolysis is also one way of reusing the enriched brine. Alkali-activated products can be made by producing NaOH after electrolysis. There are three kinds of brine electrolysis methods including diaphragm, membrane, and mercury methods. This study was conducted using a 200 mL electrolysis diaphragm cell. Tedlar bags were used in order to gather gases such as Cl2, O2, and H2. The head was less than 10 mm when a diaphragm with a 10 μm pore size was used. The data in this study was collected to analyze the relationships between concentration, chloride removal, and current density (CD). Our results showed that pore size influenced the head at the anode. Chloride removal was not high even when a high CD was applied. When the CD was 200 mA/cm2, the maximum NaOH concentration was 1.85%. However, the NaOH concentration was just...
