Patent number: 11946149Abstract: Apparatus for producing alkali hydroxide and method for operating apparatus for producing alkali hydroxide are provided. A cooling chamber through which a coolant can pass is constructed by placing a separation wall in a cathode chamber on a side opposite to an ion-exchange membrane, and a flow rate adjuster, such as manual valves, which can adjust the supply flow rate of the coolant is placed in each unit cell. The electrolytic temperature of each unit cell is regulated at an optimum operating temperature depending on the current density by adjusting the flow rate of the coolant without individually adjusting the flow rate of salt water supplied to the unit cell or the concentration of the salt water.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2021Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignees: TOAGOSEI CO., LTD., KANEKA CORPORATIONInventors: Tsutomu Ohnishi, Tsugiyoshi Osakabe, Tatsurou Yamashita, Takuya Shimura, Mikihito Sugiyama, Yukinori Iguchi
