Description

Anode and the electroextraction that uses this anode for electrowinning
Technical field
Anode and the electroextraction that uses this anode for the electrowinning that the electrowinning of the metal that the present invention relates to expect by electrowinning is used, being particularly related to and using sulfuric acid is electrolytic solution, and anodic reaction produces anode and the electroextraction that uses this anode for electrowinning that the electrowinning of oxygen uses.
Background technology
The electrowinning of metal, by by the energising after the aqueous solution of the ion that contains the metal that wish extracts (below, be called electrolytic solution) of anode and cathode dipping, separates out this metal and carries out on negative electrode.Example as representational electrowinning, can enumerate following method: the use process will contain copper, zinc, nickel, cobalt, lead, platinum metals (platinum, iridium, ruthenium, palladium etc.), precious metal (silver, gold), other transition metal, rare earth metal or be generically and collectively referred to as any above ore grindings such as metallic element of essential metal, use suitable acid etc. that metal ion is dissolved, then extract the electrolytic solution of the preparations such as process of metal target ion, by the electrowinning metal.In addition, electrowinning also comprises: in order to be recovered in the mobile equipments such as primary cell, secondary cell, fuel cell, mobile phone and other electronics, electrical and electronic parts, plated steel sheet, plating ornaments etc. the metal or alloy for various uses, metal or alloy after using is pulverized, the process of process dissolved metal ions etc., the electrolytic solution that use contains the metal target ion, by electrolytic regeneration and extract metal.In addition, electrowinning also comprises: through from the process of plating pulp thickening metal ion etc., use the electrolytic solution that contains the metal target ion, by the electrowinning metal.Composition beyond the metal ion of the electrolytic solution that electrowinning uses if be conceived to, have that to take sulfuric acid that sulfuric acid is main electrolyte ingredient be electrolytic solution or the chlorination system electrolytic solution that hydrochloric acid or muriate be main electrolyte ingredient of take, in addition, use and take pH regulator as the various electrolytic solution of the acid or alkaline aqueous solution as basis.
The energy of electrowinning consumption is the product of the electric weight of electrolysis voltage and energising, and the amount of metal that the negative electrode place obtains and this electric weight are proportional.Therefore, electrolysis voltage is lower, the power consumption of the needed electrowinning of metal of the extraction of unit weight (below, be designated as the unit power consumption amount) less.This electrolysis voltage is the potential difference of anode and negative electrode, the metal difference that negative electrode obtains, and cathodic reaction is also different, its reactive species difference, the current potential of negative electrode is also different.On the other hand, if anodic reaction with the kind illustration of above-mentioned electrolytic solution, sulfuric acid is that electrolytic solution produces oxygen, chlorination system electrolytic solution produces chlorine.For example, in the electrowinning carried out in commercialization at present, it is electrolytic solution that the electrowinning of the metals such as copper, zinc, nickel, cobalt is used sulfuric acid.In the situation that use this sulfuric acid, be electrolytic solution, the current potential of the anode while producing oxygen changes along with the material of anode use.For example, in the material that low material and catalytic activity are high in the generation catalytic activity for oxygen, the high material of catalytic activity, the current potential of anode is lower.Therefore, in the situation that use identical electrolytic solution to carry out electrowinning, in order to reduce the unit power consumption amount, anode is used the high material of catalytic activity, and the current potential that reduces anode is important and necessary.
In addition, using sulfuric acid is that the anode of electrowinning of electrolytic solution is except the catalytic activity height of the generation to oxygen, for contingent reaction on the anode beyond the generation of oxygen (below, be designated as side reaction), contrary with the generation to oxygen, require catalytic activity low.For example, in the electrowinning of zinc or copper or cobalt or nickel etc., except the zine ion or cupric ion or cobalt ion or nickel ion of the essential component as in electrolytic solution, also may comprise other metal ion.As such metal ion, be well known that mn ion, lead ion etc.If use the electrolytic solution that contains mn ion or lead ion to carry out electrowinning, hydroxyl oxidize manganese (MnOOH) and/or Manganse Dioxide (MnO are separated out in the oxidation of generation+divalent mn ion on anode on anode 2) etc. manganic compound, plumbic oxide (PbO is separated out in or the oxidation of generation+divalent lead ion on anode 2).These reactions occur with the generation of oxygen that as sulfuric acid is the anodic reaction of electrolytic solution on anode simultaneously, manganic compound and plumbic oxide are low to the catalytic activity of the generation of oxygen, and electroconductibility is not high yet, therefore, hinder the generation reaction of the oxygen on anode, consequently, become the current potential that makes anode and rise, the reason that electrolysis voltage increases.In addition, for example, at the additive component using cobalt ion as electrolytic solution, but not add in the situation of electrolytic solution as the metal ion of electrowinning object, the generation of oxygen occurs on anode, simultaneously as side reaction, the oxidation of generation+divalent cobalt ion, the hydroxy cobalt oxide (CoOOH) generated is thus separated out on anode, and the separating out equally on anode with above-mentioned manganic compound and plumbic oxide, become the reason that electrolysis voltage is increased.The metal oxide that side reaction on anode as above causes and/or metal hydroxy oxide compound separate out and accumulation causes that electrolysis voltage rises, become the reason that the life-span weather resistance that makes anode reduces simultaneously.
Due to above-mentioned reason, using sulfuric acid is that the anode of the electrowinning of electrolytic solution is preferably used the material that meets following condition: 1) high to the catalytic activity of the generation of oxygen; 2) even to the side reaction of precipitating metal oxide compound on anode and/or metal hydroxy oxide compound with do not contain metal ingredient, precipitate also on anode, adhere to or the catalytic activity of the side reaction built up low; 3) therefore, there is the highly selective to the generation of oxygen; 4) consequently, the current potential of anode is low, and in other words, the superpotential of antianode reaction is little, even and proceed electrowinning, the anode potential that does not also exist the impact by side reaction to cause rises; 5) therefore, electrolysis voltage is low, even and proceed electrowinning and also can keep low electrolysis voltage, thus, little for the unit power consumption quantitative change of electrowinning metal target; Life-span and the weather resistance of the anode that 6) simultaneously, does not exist the impact by side reaction to cause reduce; 7) generation of oxygen had to high-durability.
On the other hand, using sulfuric acid is the electrowinning anode of electrolytic solution, as representational material except using lead electrode and lead alloy, can also use on the titanium matrix electrode as catalyst layer coating platinum metals or platinum group metal oxide or their mixture and/or composite oxides (below, be designated as coating titanium electrode) etc.Concrete example as such coating titanium electrode, it is the titanium electrode with the catalyst layer coating containing iridium oxide, particularly can use with the mixed oxide that contains iridium oxide and tantalum oxide in catalyst layer, or the coating titanium electrode of the catalyst layer coating that in this mixed oxide, other metal of remix or metal oxide form.In addition, if enumerate, coating titanium electrode is extended to the example that utilizes field beyond electrowinning, disclose the coating titanium electrode that the anode of the various electrolysis process of the use aqueous solution such as plating, the manufacture of electrolytic metal paper tinsel, salt electrolysis, brine electrolysis manufacture, electrolytic functional water manufacture is used in patent documentation 1~patent documentation 7.In addition, in patent documentation 1~patent documentation 7, disclosed anode also comprises the generation that not only can be used for oxygen, but also can be used for the anode of the generation of chlorine.In addition, precursor solution of using while using thermal decomposition method to make electrowinning with coating titanium electrode and preparation method thereof is disclosed in patent documentation 8.On the other hand, the inventor discloses the electrowinning that comprises coating titanium electrode with anode and has used the electroextraction of this anode in patent documentation 9 and patent documentation 10.
