Electrolysis
In
chemistry
and
manufacturing
,
electrolysis
is a technique that uses a
direct
electric current
(DC) to drive an otherwise non-spontaneous chemical reaction. Electrolysis is commercially highly important as a stage in the separation of
elements
from naturally occurring sources such as
ores
using an
electrolytic cell
. The
voltage
that is needed for electrolysis to occur is called the
decomposition potential
.
