PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve electrode life in a diaphragmless electrolytic cell for electrolyzing water. SOLUTION: Both sides of a pair of electrodes for performing electrolysis are provided with openings for electrolytic water intake and either of the water emerging from the two openings is selected by a three-way valve. When the opening is disposed only on one side of the electrodes, the segment corresponding to downstream of the opening of one electrode is cut and the opening electrode is used as an anode. Elastic bodies are arranged behind the electrodes and when spacers are held in and pressed by the electrodes, the bending of the electrodes is absorbed by the elastic bodies. A cation exchange resin or organic acid adding means is installed before the electrolytic cell. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
