Electrolytic cell

Abstract

My electrolytic cell is uniquely designed to improve the ionic flow of the dissociated ions present in the electrolytic bath when a direct current is present. The cell consists of an outer cylinder made of palladium, a middle cylinder made of platinum, and a center electrode also made of palladium. The middle platinum cylinder is perforated with holes, allowing for the electrolyte and dissociated ions to flow from the outer interior cell chamber to the inner interior cell chamber and vice versa. A dual polarity, direct current power supply is connected to the cell by either a double pole, double throw switch or by an integrated switching circuit. The purpose of the switch is to periodically reverse the polarities of the cell's palladium electrodes creating a fluctuating and alternating ion flow.

1 . A uniquely designed electrolytic cell which consists of an outer cylinder composed of palladium, a middle perforated cylinder made of platinum, and a central rod made of palladium, whereby these metal electrodes are connected to a dual polarity direct current power supply  20  by a double throw double pole switch  21 , whereas said cell is filled with an electrolytic solution which may consist of water, heavy water, lithium deuterium oxide, diluted hydrochloric acid, and added tritium ions which will dissociate into Li + , O − , D + , H + , Cl − , and  3 H +  ions when said power supply is connected . to the electrodes of the cell, such that when said switch is in position A ( FIG. 1 ) the negative ions in said electrolytic solution will migrate to the outer positive palladium electrode lining  25  while the positive ions will flow toward the center negative palladium rod  24 , and conversely when said switch  21  is toggled to position B ( FIG. 2 ) and the polarities of the palladium electrodes are reversed, said negative ions change direction and move toward the center positive palladium rod  24  while the positive ions move now to the negative outer palladium cylindrical lining  25 , such that in both cases the ions will pass through the center perforated platinum cylinder  26 . 
     
     
         2 . The perforated platinum cylinder  26 , described in  claim 1 , is placed in the cell between the outer palladium lining  25  and the center palladium rod  24 , and is connected to the ground lead of the dual polarity power supply  20 . 
     
     
         3 . The perforated platinum cylinder  26 , described in  claim 2 , has a more positive charge than said negative center rod  24  when said double pole double throw switch  21  is in position A ( FIG. 1 ), but at the same time, is more negative in charge relative to the positive cylindrical palladium electrode  25 , such that said platinum electrode assists and maintains the positive ions in flowing from the outer chamber  27  to the inner chamber  28  and the negative ions in flowing from the inner chamber  28  to the outer chamber  27 . 
     
     
         4 . The perforated platinum cylinder  26 , described in  claim 2 , has a more negative charge than said positive center rod  24  when said double pole double throw switch  21  is in position B ( FIG. 2 ), but at the same time, is more positive in charge relative to the outer negative palladium electrode  25 , such that said platinum electrode assists and maintains the negative ions in flowing from the outer chamber  27  to the inner chamber  28  and the positive ions in flowing from said inner interior chamber  28  to said outer interior chamber  27 .
