High-Pressure Electrolytic Carbonate Eluent Generation Devices and Their Applications in Ion Chromatography Systems

This application note develops new high-pressure electrolytic potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate eluent generation devices. The new electrolytic eluent generation devices utilize the electrochemical processes involving the electrolysis of water and charge selective transport of ions across ion exchange media to generate high-purity potassium carbonate and potassium bicarbonate solutions as eluents for use in ion chromatography systems.
