The working principle of gallium electrodeposition system of the present invention is as follows:
Firstly, entering in reserve tank 10 containing Gallium solution through liquid supplementation pipe L1, to the liquid in radar levelmeter R feedback reserve tank 10 After position reaches setting height, circulating pump B1 is opened, by being pumped into separating tank 20 in reserve tank 10 containing Gallium solution.
Secondly, controlling pipeline flow and pressure, such as control flow in 1~5m by frequency modulation flowmeter F3Between/h, pipe When road pressure is less than 0.2MPa, in separating tank 20 containing Gallium solution under the driving of hydraulic pressure, through separating tank liquid outlet 22 Enter closed electrodeposition pipe 30 with electrodeposition solution inlet 32;After containing Gallium solution full of after closed electrodeposition pipe 30, then through circulation pipe L4 by The electrodeposition taphole 31 of closed 30 upper end of electrodeposition pipe is back in reserve tank 10, forms closed cycle.
Then, constant current is inputed at the interface of control device 70, and feeds back display voltage and current density, such as inputed to When constant current 800A, feedback display voltage 25V, current density 800A.Make containing the gallium element in Gallium solution in the electric current inputted Under, electrochemical reaction occurs in closed electrodeposition pipe 30 and generates liquid metal gallium (fusing point is 29.76 DEG C), gallium deposits to The bottom of closed electrodeposition pipe 30, and (while being also that electrodeposition pipe arranges gallium by the electrodeposition solution inlet 32 of closed 30 lower end of electrodeposition pipe Mouthful) be discharged into separating tank 20.
After in closed electrodeposition pipe 30 electrolytic deposition reaction about for 24 hours after, open separating tank row gallium mouth 24 valve, gallium and Electrolyte is drained into together in gallium separator 50.Since the density of gallium is much larger than the density of electrolyte, therefore gallium is deposited on 50 funnel-form bottom end of gallium separator, electrolyte then flows into filtrate receiver 60 from the filtrate port of gallium separator 50, then through filtrate pump B2 is flow back into reserve tank 10;Gallium is then separated from the discharge of row's gallium mouth (not shown) of gallium separator 50, and under entrance Washing, purification process together.It is open state that exhaust pipe 40 is kept in entire electrolytic deposition process, so that the gas that electrolytic deposition process generates Body drains into designated position in time.
Exhaust pipe 40 is checked in gallium electrodeposition system operation, and guarantees that electric current and voltage are normal.Normal course of operation Middle solution temperature is gradually increasing, and opens solution temperature setting less than 60 DEG C;When solution temperature reaches 60 DEG C, control device 70 is certainly It is dynamic to open heat exchanger 90 and heat exchanger circulating pump B3, to carry out cooling processing to containing Gallium solution;The feedback of control device 70 is aobvious simultaneously The temperature for showing solution in 90 first fluid channel of heat exchanger, by adjusting the flow and flow rate of coolant liquid in second fluid channel, To adjust the temperature of solution in first fluid channel indirectly, so that the temperature is stablized in the zone of reasonableness of setting.
It is demonstrated experimentally that the room temperature containing 10~80g/L Ga, 2~8g/L Al, 100~250g/L NaOH is passed through containing Gallium solution After crossing above-mentioned gallium electrodeposition system processing, gallium recovery rate is greater than 99.9%.Then using hydrochloric acid carrying out washing treatment after, the rate of recovery of gallium It can achieve 99.99% or more.
Compared with the existing technology, closed electrodeposition pipe of the present invention and gallium electrodeposition system have the advantages that (1) is molten containing gallium Liquid in closed electrodeposition pipe, takes the pressure liquid in-out mode of vertical direction " bottom in and top out ", with conventional electrolysis by circulating pump The horizontal direction liquid in-out mode of slot is compared, and the internal circulating load containing Gallium solution is bigger, and eliminates different parts in closed electrodeposition pipe Concentration polarization containing Gallium solution;Compared with conventional electrolytic deposition process, high current electrodeposition may be implemented, maximum can reach 1600A, electric current It is more efficient.(2) closed electrodeposition pipe is used, electrolytic deposition process whole process is carried out all under air-tight state, can make to produce in electrolytic deposition process Raw gas flows through exhaust pipe discharge with liquid, draws electrolytic deposition process scene in time, avoids electrolytic deposition process due to gas Caused by open circuit conditions, site environment is friendly.(3) it is temporarily stored in gallium separator after gallium output, passes through manual or automatic row Expect that device realizes the collection of gallium, it is simple to operate, avoid the loss of gallium caused by personnel's lock out operation.(4) entire gallium Electrodeposition system full automatic working sets solution temperature using PLC control platform, adjusts supplement cooling water and guarantees that heat exchanger is assisted automatically It runs;Reflect working condition in real time using instrument such as flowmeter and pressure gauges, guarantees that electrolytic deposition process is safe, controllable.And it powers The full PLC control of system, automatically gives input current, and feedback current density adds up the electrodeposition time, shows power consumption and voltage etc., and Fault alarm when can be achieved abnormal.
The embodiments described above only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but simultaneously It cannot therefore be construed as limiting the scope of the patent.It should be pointed out that coming for those of ordinary skill in the art It says, without departing from the inventive concept of the premise, various modifications and improvements can be made, these belong to protection of the invention Range.
