TREE NEWS update: Baimahu Laboratory’s energy and chemical environmental protection team has completed a 72-hour continuous stable operation test of its fully domestic bipolar membrane electrodialysis unit, producing 10% sulfuric acid and 8% sodium hydroxide solutions with purity above 99%. Energy consumption was 1,217 kWh per tonne of salt, and the lab said the result shows it has mastered independent development of bipolar membrane stacks and full system design.
Baimahu Lab’s all-domestic bipolar membrane electrodialysis unit passes 72-hour continuous test
The significance here lies less in the chemistry than in the supply chain: a fully domestic bipolar membrane stack and system design addresses a component category where import dependence has been a quiet constraint on cost and deployment pace. The 72-hour run and stated purity levels are the kind of operating data that matter to industrial users evaluating whether lab results translate to plant conditions. Whether endurance beyond 72 hours holds, and how the per-tonne energy figure compares with incumbent routes, is the open question worth watching.
