The strategy of paired electrochemical synthesis for the production of organic chemicals can result in as much as a 50% reduction in energy consumption, as compared to conventional electroorganic synthesis. A continuation of the research in paired synthesis, presently being conducted in this laboratory, is proposed. The future proposed work includes: (1) A continuing investigation into the chemistry of paired electroorganic reactions; (2) The engineering analysis and design of the electrochemical flow cell and separation equipment required for a synthesis; and (3) A bench scale pilot plant study and economic analysis of a synthesis.
