Technical field
The present invention relates to the recovery of proton exchange film fuel battery performance, specifically a kind of method that proton exchange film fuel battery performance that the hydrogen that cures poisons is restored, thus promoted the development of fuel cell.
Background technology
At present fuel cell is because its high energy conversion efficiency, characteristics such as environmentally friendly are subjected to extensive attention, and characteristics such as Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells also has that room temperature starts fast, no electrolyte loss, life-span are long are considered to the optimal candidate power supply of removable power supply.Yet trace amount of foreign gas may cause eelctro-catalyst to poison in fuel (hydrogen or purification reformation gas) and the oxidant (air or oxygen), battery performance is descended, and these foreign gases is difficult to avoid sometimes.At present, in order to improve the life-span of PEMFC, just improve proton exchange membrane electrode performance and durability, many research institutions are doing a large amount of work aspect the influence of anti-foreign gas.Wherein studying more is that carbon monoxide (CO) causes electrode poisoning problem as at document 1 US Patent 4,910, oxygen by inject 2%~6% continuously in the anode fuel porch is proposed in 099, thus under the effect of eelctro-catalyst with the less carbon dioxide (CO of carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation paired electrode influence of 100~500ppm 2).Adopted an impurity removal means of being made up of porous material and selective absorbing film in document 2 WO 2005/071785, this device can be removed foreign gas in the oxidant (air) such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S), oxysulfide (SO X) and nitrogen oxide (NO X).How to improve the fuel cell anti-H 2 S, do not have good solution at present, the method for the proton exchange film fuel battery performance that therefore a kind of hydrogen that can recover rapidly, effectively to cure poisons is necessary.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method that can make proton exchange film fuel battery performance that the hydrogen that cures poisons obtain fast quick-recovery, this method simple possible.
For achieving the above object, the technical solution used in the present invention is:
1) by to poisoning battery applying high voltage, can hydrogen sulfide or other sulfide oxidations catalyst surface, that cause battery to poison will be adsorbed on; The value of high potential can be 1.0V-1.5V;
2) because part Pt catalyst is also oxidized at high potential,, with oxidized catalyst reduction, recovers its electro-chemical activity, thereby battery performance is restored again by adding low-voltage; The value of electronegative potential can be 0V-0.5V.
The described high potential duration can be 10s-5min, and the duration of electronegative potential can be 10s-5min.
Its specific operation process is as follows,
1) battery that hydrogen poisons that will cure earlier quits work, and feeds inert gas (as nitrogen, helium etc.) in the electrode side of poisoning, and feeds hydrogen at opposite side;
2) add high voltage for the battery of poisoning by external circuit, and the high voltage end of the electrode side joint external circuit of poisoning, will be adsorbed on hydrogen sulfide or other sulfide oxidations catalyst surface, that cause battery to poison;
3) with after-applied low-voltage, make oxidized Pt catalyst reduction, recover its activity.
The present invention has following advantage:
1, the present invention passes through to poisoning battery applying high voltage, can hydrogen sulfide or other sulfide oxidations catalyst surface, that cause battery to poison will be adsorbed on, because part Pt catalyst is also oxidized at high potential, again by adding low-voltage, with oxidized catalyst reduction, recover its electro-chemical activity, thereby the proton exchange film fuel battery performance that the hydrogen that cures poisons is restored, thereby promoted the development of fuel cell industrialization.
2, the present invention is simple, and is applied widely.The fuel cell that hydrogen sulfide in the fuel gas or in the oxidant causes is poisoned and can be recovered by the method.The method is not only applicable to the performance recovery of fuel-cell single-cell, is applicable to the performance recovery of fuel battery (heap) yet.

Embodiment 1
Adopt monocell, the battery effective area is 5cm 2, under the open-circuit condition, the galvanic anode side feeds 1%H 2S/N 2, cathode side feeds hydrogen.Behind the 10min at hydrogen | measure the polarization curve after battery is poisoned under the air system.Afterwards, anode-side feeds nitrogen, and cathode side feeds hydrogen, adds a high voltage by external circuit, and magnitude of voltage is 1.2V, and the duration is 5min, and wherein the external circuit high voltage end links to each other with battery poisoning side (being anode in this example).Subsequently, reduce magnitude of voltage, continue 5min to 0.4V.After battery recovery finishes, again at hydrogen | the polarization curve under the air system behind the measurement battery recovery.
As shown in Figure 1, feed 1% hydrogen sulfide 10min after, and do not compared by the initial performance before being poisoned, the battery performance decay obviously.500mA/cm 2The time, cell voltage has decayed to 0.35V, is 50% of initial voltage value (0.7V).After adding a 1.2V high potential pulse 5min and 0.4V low voltage pulse 5min, battery performance is recovered fully.
