Abstract: Disclosed is an integrally combined electrical current carrier, circulation chamber and frame (CCF) formed as a single or double part (CCF) for use in unipolar electrochemical devices. The CCF is structured to define an internal circulation chamber for circulation of electrolyte, products, and reactants as well as apertures which form flow passageways when the filter press device is assembled. Affixed on opposed surfaces of the CCFs are electrically conductive planar electroactive structures which are in electrical contact with the CCF. The circulation chamber is formed by the depth of the CCF itself between opposing electroactive structures. Multiple CCFs are assembled and compressed together to form the filter press electrolyser apparatus. When power is applied to the CCFs and electroactive structures, the reactants, once they flow into the circulation chamber with the electrolyte, undergo redox reactions to produce products that are collected and exit the electrolyser in upper flow pathways.

Abstract: Disclosed is an end assembly for use in a unipolar filter press electrolyser, where the unipolar filter press electrolyser has a filter press stack. The end assembly of the unipolar filter press electrolyser includes an end plate component having two apertures, the two apertures being alignable with channels formed in the filter press stack. The two apertures include a first aperture configured to receive a stream of liquid electrolyte and gases from the filter press stack, and a second aperture configured to receive a stream of recirculated liquid electrolyte. In addition, the end assembly includes an end clamp configured to apply a clamping force on the end plate component to securely retain the filter press stack. The end clamp includes one gas offtake port to extract gases from the stream of liquid electrolyte and gases from the first aperture and discharge the gases out of the unipolar filter press electrolyser.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a high-power unipolar water electrolysis plant including a rectifier, a first U-bank, and a second U-bank electrically connected in series to the rectifier and to the first U-bank. Each U-bank is formed by a pair of adjacent, longitudinal cell arrays electrically connected to each other. The cell arrays are arranged in a spaced apart, side-by-side arrangement with a service corridor defined therebetween to allow sectional maintenance to be performed on each cell array. Each cell array has a plurality of unipolar water electrolyser cells. Each U-bank has input conduits for delivering water and cooling water to each cell array, output conduits for carrying hydrogen gas, oxygen gas and cooling water away from each cell array. The high-power unipolar water electrolysis plant includes a first jumper and a second jumper to isolate the U-bank, an electrical bypass busbar extension and a third jumper to bypass the U-bank.
