Water electrolysis is a known process to produce hydrogen and oxygen from water. The electrolysis efficiency depends on the voltage needed to pass the desired current for desired time through the electrolysis cell to achieve the desired electrochemical reactions. Motivation of present invention is to increase the electrical efficiency of electrolysis by reducing energy losses in the cell. This invention reduces energy losses by increasing ion density of the desired ions near to the respective reducing and oxidizing electrodes, which is accomplished in a hollow polyhedron, pyramid like, electrolysis cell by collecting ions from larger volume of the electrolyte solution with controlled electric fields, guided convection currents of the electrolyte solution with low grade thermal energy feed and steering the gathered ions close to the respective electrodes situated near to the top in the electrolysis cell. |
