Abstract: A method for the dry production of a membrane-electrode unit includes assembling a layered configuration including a centrally positioned membrane produced by extrusion and pre-dried at a temperature between 80° C. and 100° C. for 15 min to 30 min, a substrate-electrode unit on each side of the membrane having an electrode layer applied to a substrate, an optional frame around each substrate-electrode unit for fixing the substrate-electrode unit, and two separating films on outer sides. The configuration is pressed together between two laminating rollers so that a pressure connection is produced at least between the membrane and the electrode layers. A short production time is achieved because it is not necessary to keep the membrane moist at high temperatures under pressure. A membrane electrode unit and a roller configuration are also provided.

Abstract: An electrolytic cell, a method for manufacturing the cell, and a method of operating same. The electrolytic cell has at least two bipolar plates, at least one fluid inflow and outflow, as well as at least one laminated core arranged between the at least two bipolar plates. The laminated core is constructed from laminations which are stacked one on top of the other. At least two laminations have recesses which are designed to extend through the entire thickness of the respective lamination. The at least two laminations are arranged one on top of the other in such a way that recesses in adjacent laminations overlap partially, but not completely, as a result of which ducts, which are continuous in the direction of the plane of the lamination, are formed.
