Title:
ELECTROLYTIC SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR SCREENING CATALYTIC MATERIAL S
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002012593
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A system for screening and measuring the effectiveness of catalysts, comprising an electrolytic cell having a counter electrode comprising a plurality of segmented anodes, each of the anodes electrically isolated from each other, and a catalyst support adapted for holding an associated plurality of cathodes, where each cathode is operatively arranged to function as a working electrode when a discrete catalyst is deposited thereon, wherein the catalyst support positioned between the counter electrode and the working electrodes, and, means for measuring current in each of the plurality of segmented anodes, where the current is an indication of effectiveness of each discrete catalyst.
