ELECTROCHEMICAL PROCESS TO RECYCLE AQUEOUS ALKALI CHEMICALS USING CERAMIC ION CONDUCTING SOLID MEMBRANES
摘要
<p>A method is provided to recycle and synthesize aqueous alkali chemicals from industrial and radioactively contaminated alkali salt based waste streams using a two-compartment electrolytic cell (10) having an alkali cation-conductive ceramic membrane (14). The processes and apparatus provide the capability of recycling and synthesizing value added chemicals, including but not limited to, alkali hydroxides.</p>
