In fact, industrial electrolytic production needs to consider many factors.
The first aspect is the electrode.Platinum or graphite electrodes are not universal.Although their chemical stability is high.We need to change different electrodes for different recipes.
For example,GT5u added the recipe of electrolytic refined copper.We need to use blister copper as the anode, fine copper as the cathode, and copper sulphate as the electrolyte.Electroplating also requires electrode replacement.In most cases, the electrode is inserted from the top.So we can change the electrode at the top of electrolyzers by a kind of block which named “electrode fixing groove”.EU access from them.These four 8x platinum wires can be removed.They represent electrodes that may seem confusing in some cases.
Second,we need space for ion exchange membranes or partition.They are important in many industrial electrolysis processes,especially aqueous solutions.It blocks the indiscriminate reaction between ions and gases,which can improve product purity or ensure safety(H2 and F2,you know).They can also be placed in the GUI of a kind of block that are called “Separate Room”.They can be mounted in the middle of the side to simulate their insertion.
Third,feeding port and take-up port are critical.We can design input ports at the top of electrolyzer for solid and in the middle of the side for fluid.Also at the top,it is the gases’ exit.The fluid’s exit is close to the fluid entrance.Because these settings,a little larger electrolyzer is needed.
Finally,the electrode should be set to a certain degree of durability,just like IE.Membranes should also have durability.If the durability of the electrode is exhausted, it will become waste.But the membrane can be eluted by chemicals in the reactor to restore durability.Also,according to the generation state of the product on the electrode.If they are gas or fluid,they can be output directly from the output ports.But if they are solid in some cases,they can(or should) be output together with the electrode,just like electrolytic copper.
