Seawater Electrolysis Switch Mode Rectifier for Producing Sodium Hydroxide Chlorine Gas Hydrogen Gas
1. IGBT switch mode electrolysis rectifier's application range
The switch mode electrolysis rectifiers as AC-DC power supply to provide dc source, for various electrolysis process where it needs relatively lower power below 500kw, such as Electrolysis ofion-exchange membrane Caustic soda (NaOH), sodium hydroxide,potassium hydroxide, copper foil, salt solution,seawater desalination Electrodialysis(ED), DC power supply for nonferrous metals electrowinning from melts (aluminum, magnesium) and solutions (zinc, copper, nickel, sodium, cadmium, lead, manganese, water, etc.);power supply of electrolysis units for gas production Chloro, Fluoro,Hydrogen fluoride, producing chlorine (Cl2) by electrolysis of brinein the process of Chlor-Alkali (CA), and caustic soda and hydrogen are generated together, Chlorine (Cl2) is used as a raw material for the PVC process, isopropyl cyanide process and phenol process and rectifier for electrolysis of fused salt.
For 500kw above power demand for electrolysis, it's recommended to use SCR based rectifier.

3. Block diagram of the dc rectifiers
The switch-mode rectifier is working at the following diagram:
The mains rectifier bridge converts the voltage into DC voltage. The IGBT modules power electronicsthen convert the DC voltage pulse width modulated into a alternating voltage. The internal transformerrealizesisolation and voltage adjustment on the secondary side. On the output side rectification is achieved by fast power diodes. Aconstant smoothed and fully controllable DC voltage is generatedatthe output side.
