Description of the Related Art When seawater is electrolyzed, hydrogen and sodium hydroxide are usually generated at the anode, chlorine is generated at the anode, and sodium hypochlorite is generated from the sodium hydroxide and chlorine. As the anode in this case, an electrode obtained by coating the surface of titanium, which is a corrosion-resistant metal, with an oxide of a platinum group metal is used as a high-performance electrode.

なわれない。Hypochlorous acid has the effect of preventing organisms in the seawater from growing on the underwater structures, so that such electrolysis of seawater has been performed intentionally. Seawater pollution due to storms is rarely done.

In this case, since hydrogen must be generated at the cathode and only oxygen must be generated at the anode, an electrode that enables this is required.

まい、所望の結果が得られない。In seawater, the equilibrium potential for oxygen generation is about 0.6 V lower than the equilibrium potential for chlorine generation, and thermodynamically oxygen should be easily generated. However, since the generation of chlorine is a simple electrode reaction 2Cl → Cl 2 + 2e, and the electrolytic potential is close to the equilibrium potential, the generation of oxygen occurs through a complicated reaction consisting of a number of elementary reactions. The electrolytic potential easily exceeds the equilibrium potential for chlorine generation. Therefore, when observing the generation of oxygen, a large amount of chlorine is also generated, and a desired result cannot be obtained.
