Notes:
Urea adsorbs on the ruthenium titanium oxide electrode, depressing the observed current. For artificial kidney dialysate concentrations of urea and NaCl (0.50 kg/m3 and 100 mol/m3, respectively), the major electrolysis products are N2, CO2, O2, and H2, and the reaction mechanism is solution oxidation of urea by anodically generated active chlorine. A nitrogen-yielding direct electrode reaction is observed at high urea concentration (30 kg/m3) and low NaCl concentration (10-100 mol/m3).
