Opis

Performance of any electrolytic cell should be improved to minimize the operating costs. This objective can be achieved by incorporating any augmentation technique technique in the electrolytic cell. The presence of an augmentation technique enhances convective mass transfer and hence the performance of the cell. Investigations are continuing to identify an appropriate augmentation technique suitable to a given electrolytic cell. The various augmentation techniques in use are fast flow of electrolyte, the rotation or vibration of fluid, the rotation or vibration of the transfer surface, the use of fluidized solids, the use of packed solids, insertion of turbulence promoters of various geometries etc. Recirculation flow patterns are developed in the fluid by employing these augmentation techniques and the turbulence is increased in the cell
