Industrial Ru-Ir MMO Titanium Anode for Efficient Brine Electrolysis Systems
Titanium Anode for Brine Chlorination is a high-performance mixed metal oxide (MMO) coated titanium electrode specially designed for brine electrolysis and chlorine generation systems. The anode uses high-purity Grade 1 titanium as the substrate and is coated with ruthenium-iridium precious metal oxides, providing excellent electrocatalytic activity, low chlorine evolution potential, outstanding corrosion resistance, and long service life in chloride-containing environments.
This type of titanium anode is widely used in sodium hypochlorite generators, seawater electrolysis systems, industrial chlorination equipment, ballast water treatment systems, cooling water disinfection systems, swimming pool chlorination equipment, and various electrochemical water treatment applications.
Compared with traditional graphite anodes and lead-based electrodes, the Titanium Anode for Brine Chlorination offers lower operating voltage, higher current efficiency, dimensional stability, lower maintenance costs, and significantly longer service life.
What Is Brine Chlorination?
Brine chlorination is an electrochemical process that converts sodium chloride solution (brine) into chlorine, sodium hypochlorite, and other oxidizing agents through electrolysis.
In the electrolysis process:
- The titanium anode generates chlorine gas
- The cathode produces hydrogen
- Sodium hypochlorite is formed in the solution
Because the anode continuously works under highly corrosive chloride conditions, the electrode material must have:
- Excellent chlorine evolution capability
- Strong corrosion resistance
- High conductivity
- Stable coating adhesion
- Long-term dimensional stability
Ru-Ir coated titanium anodes are considered one of the best solutions for brine chlorination systems.
Advantages of Titanium Anode for Brine Chlorination
Excellent Chlorine Evolution Efficiency
The Ru-Ir MMO coating provides very low chlorine evolution overpotential, allowing the system to generate chlorine efficiently while reducing energy consumption.
This improves:
- Electrolysis efficiency
- Chlorine output
- System stability
- Operating economy
Outstanding Corrosion Resistance
The titanium substrate has excellent resistance to chloride corrosion, seawater corrosion, and acidic environments.
The precious metal oxide coating protects the electrode surface from rapid degradation and ensures stable electrochemical performance.
Long Service Life
Compared with graphite electrodes, the Titanium Anode for Brine Chlorination can operate for several years under proper current density and electrolyte conditions.
Typical service life:
- 3–5 years
- 5–7 years
- Even longer for optimized systems
depending on operating conditions.
Dimensionally Stable Electrode
The MMO coated titanium anode is also called DSA (Dimensionally Stable Anode).
Unlike graphite anodes:
- the electrode does not dissolve rapidly,
- the electrode gap remains stable,
- the electrolysis voltage stays consistent.
This helps reduce energy consumption and maintenance frequency.
Lower Operating Voltage
The Ru-Ir coating significantly reduces cell voltage during electrolysis.
Benefits include:
- lower DC power consumption,
- reduced heat generation,
- improved system efficiency,
- lower operational costs.
