Principle and Outline of Sodium’s
            Extraction
   Down's Process is based on the electrolysis of fused NaCl
    ( sodium chloride).

   Down's cell consists of a rectangular container of steel.

   Inside of the tank is lined with firebricks.

   In the Down's Cell a circular iron cathode surrounds the
    carbon anode and the products of the electrolysis are
    separated by a steel mesh or gauze to prevent them
    coming into contact and reforming sodium chloride.
 At the carbon anode chloride ions
  are oxidized to form chlorine gas.
 At the iron cathode sodium ions
  are reduced to sodium atoms.
 Formula: Anode: (positive carbon
  electrode)
  2Cl-(l) → Cl2(g) + 2e
 Cathode: (negative iron electrode)
  Na+(l) + e → Na(l)
   2Cl-(l) + 2Na+(l) → Cl2(g) + 2Na(l)
Manufacture of Sodium
           Hydroxide
 Electrolysis of concentrated sodium
  chloride solutions (brine) produces chlorine
  gas, hydrogen gas and aqueous sodium
  hydroxide.
 2NaCl(aq) + 2H2O(l) -----> H2(g) + Cl2(g) +
  2NaOH(aq)

   The electrolysis of sodium chloride to
    produce sodium hydroxide and chlorine
    can be carried out in 3 types of electrolytic
    cells - mercury, diaphragm and
    membrane cells
Uses of sodium hydroxide
   domestic oven and drain cleaner

   Manufacture of Soap and detergent
    products

   removal of sulphur dioxide and
    hydrogen sulphide in petroleum refining

   pulp and paper production
Uses of Sodium
   Sodium vapour street lights

   manufacture of zirconium (Zr), titanium
    (Ti), sodium cyanide (NaCN), sodium
    peroxide (Na2O2), sodium hydride (NaH)
