INFORMATION 12 The Electrolysis process and the real costs of production PUBLIC INFORMATION July 2018 As explained in our information sheet on its thermodynamics (Information Sheet 11), production of chlo- rine, caustic soda (KOH or NaOH) and hydrogen by the European chlor-alkali industry requires salt, water and a large amount of energy under the form of electricity and steam. There are real costs associated with this electricity which in turn influence the cost of the end chemicals. A schematic overview of the membrane production process (one of the main technologies to produce chlor-alkali), including the main material streams, is presented below. The membrane process is of particular interest because, by 2018, around 85% of chlorine produced in Europe will come from this technology. Based on the amounts of chlor-alkali produced and the current prices for electricity, steam and the required raw materials, it is possible to calculate the production costs of chlorine, caustic and hydro- gen. An overview of the chlor-alkali production process and the main material flows. Brine is a highly concentrated solution of salt in water.
