The present invention relates to the application of high electrical conductivity electrodes in whatever type of the electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen to substantially reduce power consumption. The high electrical conductivity electrodes are selected from copper electrodes or graphene electrodes and are coated with a catalyst. Type of electrolysis may be conventional diaphragm or membrane type, diaphragm-less or Unipolar electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen.

Electrolytic liquid generation device includes stacked body in which conductive membrane is interposed between cathode and anode constituting electrodes, electrolytic part that electrolyzes a liquid, and housing in which electrolytic part is disposed. Housing includes flow path in which a liquid flowing direction intersects a stacking direction of stacked body. Electrolytic part includes slot open to flow path in which a part of interface between conductive membrane and the electrode is exposed. In housing, positioning member is disposed, and positioning member positions the electrode. This configuration provides electrolytic liquid generation device in which an electrode can be downsized and the electrode can be positioned in housing.

A hydrogen electrolyzer cell includes a shared reservoir, anode and cathode chambers, and a dividing wall. The shared reservoir holds an electrolytic solution. The anode chamber extends up from the shared reservoir and includes an anode electrode for producing oxygen gas during an electrolysis of the electrolytic solution. An oxygen degassing region is integrated into the anode chamber above the anode electrode. The cathode chamber extends up from the shared reservoir and includes a cathode electrode for producing hydrogen gas during the electrolysis. A hydrogen degassing region is integrated into the cathode chamber above the cathode electrode. The dividing wall extends up from the shared reservoir and separates the anode chamber from the cathode chamber. The dividing wall blocks transport of charged ions within the electrolytic solution across the dividing wall and blocks mixing of the hydrogen and oxygen gases released during the electrolysis.
