2. Principle of electrochemical process development
Given the theoretical knowledge and corresponding data available today, the empiricism and trial-and-error of the early days are no longer appropriate in the design and development of a process using electrolysis, which is instead carried out in a reasoned and systematic way based on the characteristics of the physico-chemical processes involved in the electrolysis cell. These processes are of the same nature as those occurring in the minicells used in the characterization and analysis applications of electrochemistry, known as "analytical electrochemistry".
It follows that the procedure for designing and developing an electrolytic process — like that of a battery system — consists in predetermining, by means of an electroanalytical study (on the scale of the study laboratory), the characteristics of the processes involved in...
