Ruthenium Anode Introduction: Titanium electrodes with metal oxide coatings are classified according to the gas evolved at the anode in electrochemical reactions. Those used for chlorine evolution at the anode are called chlorine-evolving anodes, such as ruthenium-based coated titanium electrodes.
Advantages:
1. High corrosion resistance and good reversing performance.
2. High current efficiency, with extremely low energy consumption compared to graphite anodes.
3. Long service life; in the chlor-alkali industry, the service life can reach over 8 years.
4. The substrate can be reused after the electrode loses activity.
Applications: Chlor-alkali industry, diaphragm process for alkali production, electrolytic production of chlorine dioxide, acidic water electrolysis, seawater electrolysis for chlorination, sterilization and algae removal in power plant circulating water, electrowinning of metals in chloride systems, electrolysis of deionized water, electrodialysis, etc.
