I feel this is very applicable to HI production as is.
Nice one Sam.
Orgy,
Seems to negate the need for sonification also.(good thing as degredation seems to be of concern)
I feel the properties/quality of your membrane is only a factor in regards to the purity of you HI(e.g exchange selectivity)and the cell fouling potential of the halogen used.
I am now of the belief that this will work with clay,porcelain,condoms,asbestos batten ect.as well as VPVC,teflon and all.Another bonus
Seems to raise hope of an iodide salt such as KI to be used as a starter.
Do you believe a liquid cathode is called for and if so hows about a slurry,say from semi evaporated tincture of iodine/potassium iodide?Minimal alchohol of course,or hows about an acetic acid/iodine/KI slurry.
(Feels like Ive heard all this before somewhere)
If not what would be the ideal equivalent for liquid bromine when talking iodine do you think?
I take it H2S04/phosphoric,would have the same properties in relation to oxidisation ect of bromine in this environment,as they would on Iodine?So this would not be of importance.
But if it is:-
Hows about a finely ground carbon used as a semi solid/slurry catholyte?
Bang! get rid of Iodine,and phosphorus in one foul swoop.
Not to mention a fair bit of glassware.
Soon me thinks.
Always aiming for a one pot,and out of shear curiosity,
could anyone extrapolate toward the effect current would have on the ephedrine molecule.Doesnt realy matter I spose`as the two pot seems nearly doneable.
Rhodium,
I hope you remember my PM to you.In it you mentioned temperature as being the main hurdle.Does it go any further than that?
My only concern at this stage is the effect of current on the reducing ability/mechanisms of the evolved HIacid/gas mix.
Hope Ive made myself a little easier to understand this time.
Its getting better all the time.
Oh the JOy.
Fuck Yeah.
