The electrochemical production of boric acid
Journal of Chemical Technology & Biotechnology, 2014 AbstractBACKGROUNDBoric acid (H3BO3) was electrochemically produced from borax pentahydrate (Na2B4O7.5H2O) using membrane electrolysis, and a flow diagram of the production process was developed. The effect of different catholyte concentrations (10, 20 and 30% aqueous NaOH) and current densities (1.2, 1.8 and 2.9 kA m−2) on current efficiency was ...
