Brit.

/ᵻˈlɛktrəlʌɪzə/, U.S.

/əˈlɛktrəˌlaɪzər/,

/iˈlɛktrəˌlaɪzər/

Forms: 1800s– electrolyser, 1800s– electrolyzer (now chiefly U.S.).

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: electrolyse v., -er suffix¹.

Etymology: < electrolyse v. + -er suffix¹. Compare French électrolyseur (1883).

An apparatus used to carry out electrolysis, esp. for the production of gases and other chemicals.

1890 U.S. Patent 420,710 1/1 The instrument which I have termed a ‘bipolar prostatic electrolyzer’ is intended for the application of the electric current to the prostate gland in the treatment of prostatitis and prostatorrhea.

1905 Jrnl. Physical Chem. 9 368 With this purer acid, and the glass electrolyzer, runs were made to find the effect of temperature.

1937 E. Rutherford Coll. Papers (1965) III. 426 The cells used were ordinary technical electrolysers for the production of hydrogen and oxygen, heavy water being regarded as a by-product.

2000 New Scientist 25 Nov. 40 Electricity from the solar panels feeds into two electrolysers. These generate hydrogen from water with no nasty carbon dioxide emissions.

This is a new entry (OED Third Edition, June 2008; most recently modified version published online March 2022).
