An electrochemistry method to produce a reaction gas of a lesser molar mass than that of an initial constituent of gas or vapor, according to which the gas or vapor of the initial constituent is made to flow, and the reaction gas is recovered in the path in which the initial constituent is made to flow. At least one vortex is created in a zone upstream from the reaction gas recovery zone, wherein the vortex can separate the produced reaction gas from the initial constituent still present to subject the initial constituent to an electrochemical process in the upstream zone. In a high-temperature water electrolysis application according to the method, by the vortex, the produced hydrogen is separated from the surplus steam to subject the surplus stream to an electrolytic process within the electrolyser itself. |
