Abstract

An electrolysis device includes an electrolytic cell stack, an electrolytic solution supply unit for supplying an electrolytic solution to the electrolytic cell stack, and a power supply unit for applying a voltage to the electrolytic cell stack. The electrolytic cell stack includes: a plurality of separators arranged side by side at intervals in a first direction; a plurality of electrolytic cells disposed one by one between two separators adjacent to each other; an electrolytic solution flow path part provided to each of the separators and through which the electrolytic solution flows; a first flow path part which causes the electrolyte supplied from the electrolytic solution supply unit to flow into the electrolytic solution flow path parts; and a structure part which uniformizes a pressure loss between the electrolytic solution flow path parts when the electrolytic solution flows into the electrolyte flow path parts from the first flow path part.

An electrolysis device comprising:

an electrolytic cell stack;
an electrolytic solution supply unit configured to supply an electrolytic solution to the electrolytic cell stack;
and
a power supply unit configured to apply a voltage to the electrolytic cell stack, wherein
the electrolytic cell stack includes:
a plurality of separators arranged side by side at intervals in a first direction;
a plurality of electrolytic cells disposed one by one between two of the separators adjacent to each other;
an electrolytic solation flow path part provided to each of the plurality of separators and through which the electrolytic solution flows;
a first flow path part configured to cause the electrolytic solution supplied from the electrolytic solution supply unit to flow into the electrolytic solution flow path part;
and
a structure part configured to uniformize, between the electrolytic solution flow path parts, a pressure loss when the electrolytic solution flows from the first flow path part into the electrolytic solution flow path part.
