Electrochemical cell and method

Description

A rotating cathode cell is provided with a lithium anode. An acid oxidizing agent and an aqueous electrolyte are supplied to the moving cathode surface such that they are carried to the electrochemical junction between the anode and the cathode. The acid oxidizer continuously dissolves the layer of reaction product (LiOH) forming on the anode, improving the power output per unit weight of the cell
