Abstract
Experimental data relating to the performance of a fast flow parallel plate electrochemical reactor are reported, using very dilute reactant solutions. The results are shown to conform to the Chilton-Colburn analogy. The significance of such reactors, in terms of both electrochemical processing and treatment of dilute aqueous effluents, is discussed.
