Claim:
1. An electrolyzer device comprising: a container configured to receive liquid to be electrolyzed; a separator positioned in the container so as to define a first chamber and a second chamber positioned lower in a vertical direction than the first chamber, a volume of the first chamber being smaller than a volume of the second chamber; a fluid outlet pipe extending into an internal region of the second chamber of the container, the fluid outlet pipe having an intake opening at the internal region of the second chamber; a cathode positioned in the first chamber and operatively coupled to a power supply; and an anode positioned in the second chamber and operatively coupled to the power supply, wherein the liquid is an aqueous salt solution; the container has one or more internal walls that are non-conductive; the cathode extends across the first chamber so as to contact the one or more non-conductive internal walls of the container; the anode is on a non-conductive support; and the anode is dimensioned to provide a gap between the anode and non-conductive internal walls of the container.
