German term or phrase: Reduktion
Translation except for lasst word REDUKT.
3.2 Diaphragmalysis Process
This process causes the electrochemical activation of water and common salt. The technology's core element is a special electrolysis reactor made of titanium with different precious metal coatings, a zirconium-oxide diaphragm and a special ceramic. Electrolytic processes separate the water and salt input material into two, temporarily decomposed/degraded anode and cathode chambersm producing two different concentrates:
• An anode fraction (oxidate)
• A cathode fraction (Redukt)

Explanation:
Reduction
<Back to Last Page> <Full Glossary>
Definition: A half-reaction in which a chemical species decreases its oxidation number, usually by gaining electrons.

Example: The H+ ions, with an oxidation number of +1, are reduced to H2, with an oxidation number of 0, in the reaction Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) --> Zn2+(aq) + H2(g).
