Description

Conducive to the method for reducing Zinc electrolysis tank voltage and energy consumption
Technical field
The invention belongs to Extraction metallurgy technical fields, and in particular to a kind of conducive to the side for reducing Zinc electrolysis tank voltage and energy consumption Method.
Background technique
In the general smelting process of metallic zinc, final step needs to obtain cathode zinc by the method for electrochemical reduction, claims For Zinc electrolysis, generally using lead-containing alloy plate as anode during Zinc electrolysis, aluminium sheet is as cathode, sulfuric acid-solution of zinc sulfate System as basic electrolyte system, while in electrolyte also containing other additive ions such as manganese, fluorine, chlorine or magazine from Son.During Zinc electrolysis, since the deposition potential of hydrogen is relatively negative thus zinc ion obtains electron reduction Cheng Jin at cathode Belong to zinc and invests on aluminium sheet, and on anode, then the evolution reaction of oxygen occurs, since oxygen evolution reaction needs are very high excessively electric Pressure, therefore in general, total tank voltage of Zinc electrolysis is up to 3.3V or more, ton electrolytic zinc consumes direct current energy 2900-3100 degree Electricity.Zinc electrolysis process consumes a large amount of high-quality electric energy, and how research, which reduces the tank voltage of the process and then reduce power consumption, has Significance.
In order to reduce the tank voltage and energy consumption of Zinc electrolysis process, the method that industry generallys use is to improve anode material to reduce Anodic overpotential improves the overpotential for oxygen evolution etc. of lead-containing alloy for example, by using DSA anode, addition alloying element.However, these sides Formula still have invest excessive, the unconspicuous problem of effect so that so far in the research and industrial application of Zinc electrolysis process into It postpones slow.
Summary of the invention
For the above-mentioned deficiency of the prior art, it is conducive to reduce Zinc electrolysis the technical problem to be solved in the present invention is to provide one kind The method of tank voltage and energy consumption avoids existing Zinc electrolysis production process tank voltage and the high problem of energy consumption, obtain improving cost it is low, Energy consumption reduces the effect obviously, easily realized in order to industrial application.
In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme:
Conducive to the method for reducing Zinc electrolysis tank voltage and energy consumption, including electrolytic cell, the electrolytic cell include groove body, anode and yin Pole is added urea as additive in Zinc electrolysis electrolyte, and groove body is added after being sufficiently mixed uniformly, then leads to direct current and carries out Electrodeposition takes zinc.
Further improve above-mentioned technical proposal, addition concentration range of the urea in Zinc electrolysis electrolyte be 0.01~ 0.8mol/L。
Further, with the circulation of electrolyte in electrolytic deposition process, continuous uniform supplement addition urea simultaneously makes its concentration model It encloses and remains 0.01~0.8mol/L.
Further, electrolytic deposition process continues 24~48h.
Further, the Zinc electrolysis electrolyte is the mixed solution for including sulfuric acid and zinc sulfate.
Compared with prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
The present invention proposes a kind of to utilize urea as the new of additive for the double high problems of Zinc electrolysis process tank voltage and energy consumption Electrodeposition system and method, pass through the path for changing anode reaction to obtain the tank voltage and energy more much lower than existing Zinc electrolysis It consumes, in electrolytic deposition process, the gas that anode is precipitated is the mixed gas of carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen, goes out slot after 24~48h of electrodeposition Acceptable cathodic zinc and electrolysis waste solution containing urea are obtained, electrolytic deposition process can reduce 100mV relative to anode potential when being not added with urea More than, energy consumption reduces 100kWh or more.When carrying out Zinc electrolysis production using this method, during having no need to change existing Zinc electrolysis Other parameters and condition, only be added reasonable concentration urea be used as additive, that is, realize Zinc electrolysis anodic current potential Be greatly lowered, while zinc is not influenced in the deposition of cathode, to realize being greatly reduced for electrolytic deposition process energy consumption, implementation cost Low, energy consumption is reduced obvious and is easily realized, is convenient for industrial application.
