One place is in telecommunication racks, where AC power needs to be converted to DC to power the telecommunication equipment. And their are plenty of other applications as well.

What are the applications of precision rectifiers?
Precision rectifiers are used in the design of instrumentation systems.
Is fans used in rectifiers?
no
Why not stepup transformer is not used in rectifiers?
Rectifiers turn A/C into D/C, but transformers can only run on A/C.
Where can rectifiers be bought for a good price?
Maplin offer affordable rectifiers. Rectifiers are used to convert alternating current to direct current. The process is also known as rectification. Rectifiers are often found serving as components of DC power supplies.
What is semiconducting oxides?
copper oxide is a semiconductor. it used to be used for power rectifiers.
The purpose of 240V to 12V rectifiers?
The purpose of rectifiers is to change AC to DC.
Why germanium is not suitable for rectification?
Any semiconductor can be used for rectification, so germanium is suitable.However what you may be thinking of is power rectifiers. Germanium cannot operate with a junction temperature above about 60C, so this is a significant limitation on the power handling capability of germanium power rectifiers (even copper oxide or selenium power rectifiers can handle more power, so they were used for many years before quality silicon power rectifiers became available).
What is a polarization rectifier unit?
Chemical Processes often have large power rectifiers as their primary source of DC Power. If these rectifiers are turned off, either for maintenance or a malfunction, there is a danger to the hardware of the chemical process. To solve this problem, standby rectifiers are installed in parallel with the main rectifiers. These rectifiers, known as Polarisation Rectifiers, pass electric current through the process and prevent damage....NEOWATT ENERGY
What are the applications of rectifiers in use?
A bridge rectifier, is a group of rectifiers (4 in a single phase) wired so that each half of an AC current is passed to respective positive and negative lines of a DC output. It provides full wave rectification of AC into DC.
Rectifiers used for most larger alternator systems are which ones?
a full-wave bridge rectifier
What is the purpose of rectifiers?
voltage
Are diodes rectifiers?
No. Diodes are diodes. One diode can be USED as a half-wave rectifier. Four diodes can be used to build a bridge rectifier.
