surface area of the working electrode can be
increased.
For scaling up for commercialization a filter
press type flow cell is recommended, as shown
in Figure 3.4 . In this case, the volume of the
electrolytic solution has no limit since the
solution is circulated by pump, and mass
transport from the bulk to the surface of the
working electrode is promoted to increase the
efficiency of the electrolytic reaction.

3.2 Constant Current Electrolysis
and Constant Potential
Electrolysis
It is recommended that organic electrosynthesis
be carried out at a constant current at first
because the setup of the electrolytic system and
the operation of the power supply are simple.
The product selectivity and yield can be
