PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrolytic bath which continuously produces a new material by electrolysis, and can reduce a ratio of a remaining unelectrolyzed substance while suppressing the production of by-product, without sacrificing production efficiency. SOLUTION: In continuous electrolysis with the use of one unit of an electrolytic bath, only one type of the combination of voltage and current can be set in the electrolytic bath, and accordingly a substance to be electrolyzed can be electrolyzed only on an electrolytic condition corresponding to the average of the compositions of the substance to be electrolyzed in the inlet and outlet of the electrolytic bath at the most. Accordingly, in order to obtain an electrolytic condition which has further progressed than the outlet composition, there is no other method than that of using a plurality of electrolytic units in combination, in which an electrolytic condition can be set independently. Accordingly, an electrolytic bath which can reduce the ratio of the unelectrolyzed substance in the continuous electrolysis is the composite electrolytic bath that includes two or more of the electrolytic bathes 1 and 2, which are arranged so as to constitute flow channels 8 and 9 in a fixed direction of the substance to be electrolyzed, and in which at least voltages between counter electrodes in the respective electrolytic bathes are independently set.
