Tag: Electrolysis Technology

Electrolysis technology refers to the process that uses electrical energy to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction, typically involving the breakdown of compounds into their constituent elements or simpler substances. In this process, an electric current is passed through an electrolyte solution, which can be a liquid or molten ionic compound, causing the migration of ions towards electrodes where oxidation and reduction reactions occur.

Common applications of electrolysis technology include the production of hydrogen gas from water (water electrolysis), the extraction of metals from ores, and the electroplating of surfaces for corrosion resistance and aesthetic purposes. This technology plays a significant role in various industries, such as energy, metallurgy, and chemical manufacturing, and is important for advancing sustainable practices, especially in the production of clean hydrogen fuel.
