The hydrogen halide is produced by reacting a halogen with water in the presence of graphitised carbon, ruthenised and/or platinised titanium, or (preferably) ungraphitised carbon. The halogen is preferably generated by electrolysis of a hydrogen halide (in gaseous form or, preferably, in aqueous solution) and the resulting hydrogen halide used to replenish hydrogen halide being electrolysed. The electrolytic process is used for the production of hydrogen, with net consumption of water and, in the preferred case, carbon. |
