An electrolytic cell comprising a pair of electrodes connected to a source of electrical current an electrolyte in fluid communication with the electrodes; a first gas, formed at the first electrode; a second gas formed at the second electrode; a separator, and first and second gas collection vessels. The separator includes a first inclined surface to direct flow of the electrolyte and the first gas in a direction distal the second electrode and towards the first gas collection vessel due to a difference between density of the electrolyte and combined density of the electrolyte and the first gas. The separator includes an second inclined surface to direct flow of the electrolyte and the second gas in a direction distal the first electrode and towards the second gas collection vessel due to a difference between density of the electrolyte and combined density of the electrolyte and the second gas. |
