Dielectrolysis is the process of decomposition of a substance by electricity. Some synonyms for this term include electrolytic decomposition, electrolytic dissociation, or electrochemical breakdown. Electrolysis is a broader term that refers to the use of electric current to drive chemical reactions, including dielectrolysis. Other related terms include electroplating, electrorefining, and electrowinning, which also involve the use of electrical energy to chemically transform substances. These processes have applications in various fields, including metallurgy, chemistry, and electronics. Advanced research in the field of dielectrolysis is continually finding new and innovative ways to harness electrical energy for chemical reactions.
