An electrolytic cell (1) and method for decreasing the power consumption of an electrolytic cell (1) having a fixed designed current capacity in one aspect comprises refitting an electrolytic cell (1) with additional cathodes and anodes to lower the overall current density of the cell. In order to accommodate the additional anodes, the cathode-to-cathode spacing (CS) can be reduced and the cathodes can also be reconfigured to provide a narrower cathode tube structure (11). This can be accomplished by decreasing the spacing between opposed cathode plates (12). This modification permits operation of the cell (1) at the original designed current capacity at a significantly reduced power consumption. New cell manufacture is also contemplated.

L'invention concerne dans un aspect une cellule électrolytique (1) et un procédé pour diminuer la consommation d'énergie d'une cellule électrolytique (1) présentant une capacité de courant nominale fixe. Ce procédé consiste à rééquiper une cellule électrolytique (1) de cathodes et d'anodes additionnelles pour diminuer la densité de courant global de la cellule. Dans le but de loger les anodes additionnelles, l'espacement entre cathodes (CS) peut être réduit et les cathodes peuvent également être reconfigurées pour constituer une structure tubulaire à cathodes (11) plus étroite, ce qui peut être réalisé par réduction de l'espacement entre les plaques cathodiques (12) opposées. Cette modification permet le fonctionnement de la cellule (1) à la capacité de courant nominale initiale avec une consommation d'énergie notablement réduite. Une nouvelle fabrication de cellule est également envisagée.
