In
chlorate industries Sodium Chlorate (NaClO3) and Potassium
Chlorate ( KClO3 ) are manufactured by means of electrolytic
process using chlorate electrolyzer.
Sodium chlorate (NaClO3) is manufactured by the electrolytic
oxidation of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) using chlorate
cells, where in TiTaN 's mixed metal oxide coated
titanium anodes are used.
Potassium chlorate (KClO3) is manufactured by the
electrolytic oxidation of Potassium Chloride (KCl)
using chlorate cells, where in TiTaN 's MMO coated
titanium substrate anodes are used.
These chlorates are further processed to produce chlorine
dioxide ( ClO2 ) and perchlorates, which are of in
high demand for bleaching and explosive manufacturing
purposes.
In the electrolytic process of chlorate manufacturing
three types of chlorate cells are being used :
: : tank type chlorate cell ( mmo plate anode, mmo
mesh anode )
: : modular type chlorate cell ( mixed metal oxide
plate anode )
: : hydrogen lifting type chlorate cell ( mmo coated
anode fins )
