Global Chlor-Alkali Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025
Research SummaryThe chlor-alkali process is an industrial chemical process used to produce chlorine, sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), and hydrogen gas from brine (sodium chloride solution). The process involves the electrolysis of brine in an electrolytic cell, typically using a diaphragm, membrane, or mercury cell configuration. In the electrolytic cell, an electric current is passed through the brine solution, causing the chloride ions (Cl-) to migrate to the anode, where they undergo oxidation to form chlorine gas (Cl2). At the cathode, water molecules (H2O) are reduced to form hydrogen gas (H2) and hydroxide ions (OH-), which combine to form sodium hydroxide (NaOH) through reaction with sodium ions (Na+) migrating through the electrolyte membrane. The chlor-alkali process is a key industrial method for producing chlorine and sodium hydroxide, which are essential chemicals used in various industries including water treatment, chemical manufacturing, pulp and paper production, textiles, and more.
