Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of water conservancy and hydropower, and particularly relates to a full-immersion oxygen-free environment water electrolysis hydrogen production system.
Background
The hydrogen production by water electrolysis is a mature industrial technology, and the following problems exist in the application process:
(1) the hydrogen production system belongs to medium and high pressure containers and pipeline systems, and the hydrogen has the density of 1/30 of air, so the hydrogen is easy to diffuse if leaking, and is inflammable and explosive. Hydrogen plants therefore have very specific requirements for static electricity, open fire, electrical switching, ventilation, and safety clearance from buildings to ensure safety. This often puts corresponding demands on the plant space, etc., increasing the construction costs of the plant.
(2) The electrolysis process of water is an exothermic process. Along with the continuous operation of the electrolysis process, the inside of the electrolytic cell can continuously generate heat, thereby continuously increasing the operation temperature of the electrolytic cell. Depending on the process requirements of the cell, this temperature must be controlled within a certain range, not exceeding its upper set point. Conventional systems for electrolytic hydrogen production placed in air use corresponding cooling systems, namely: the heat generated by electrolysis of water in the electrolytic cell is taken out of the electrolytic cell by the circulation of the electrolyte in the system, namely the electrolyte which is cooled in the separator and has lower temperature enters the electrolytic cell, and the heat exchange is carried out in the hydrogen separator and the oxygen separator. The hydrogen separator and the oxygen separator are internally provided with heat exchange devices, and the heat exchange process is carried out between the cooling water and the electrolyte flowing out of the electrolytic bath. The flow of the cooling water is controlled and adjusted, so that the electrolyte flowing into the separator is cooled, the cooled electrolyte flows out of the separator and flows into the electrolytic cell through a circulation loop of the electrolyte, and thus heat generated by electrolysis in the electrolytic cell can exchange heat with the cooling water at a lower temperature through circulation of the electrolyte, and under the action of a system operation temperature adjusting and controlling system; the operating temperature of the cell can be controlled to a set value. For the above purpose, a corresponding cooling system is often provided in the electrolytic hydrogen generation station.
Therefore, it is necessary to solve the problem of heat dissipation in the process of producing hydrogen by electrolyzing water and prevent hydrogen leakage.

As shown in figures 1-2, a full-immersion type oxygen-free environment water electrolysis hydrogen production system comprises an electrolytic bath 1, hydrogen production auxiliary equipment 2, purification equipment 3, a water replenishing tank 4, a water replenishing pump 5, an alkaline liquid tank 6, a rectifier cabinet 7, a transformer 8, a low-voltage power distribution cabinet 9 and a control cabinet 10. The water replenishing tank 4, the alkaline solution tank 6 and the water replenishing pump 5 are connected in sequence and then connected with the electrolytic cell 1 for providing electrolyte; the low-voltage power distribution cabinet 9 and the control cabinet 10 are connected with the rectifier cabinet 7, and the transformer 8, the flow cabinet 7 and the electrolytic cell 1 are sequentially connected and used for providing electric energy for the electrolytic cell.
As shown in fig. 2, after the transformer 8 and the rectifier cabinet 7 supply electric energy to the electrolytic cell 1 through the waterproof cable, the electrolytic cell 1 receives the electrolyte supplemented by the make-up water tank 4, the alkaline solution tank 6 and the make-up water pump 5, and hydrogen and oxygen are generated through electrolysis. The hydrogen and oxygen in the electrolytic cell 1 are conveyed to the hydrogen production accessory equipment 2 and the purification equipment 3 through underwater gas pipelines to prepare high-purity hydrogen and oxygen, and then the high-purity hydrogen and oxygen are conveyed to corresponding storage equipment through gas pipelines.
As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the electrolytic cell 1, the hydrogen production auxiliary equipment 2, and the purification equipment 3 are hydrogen-containing equipment, the electrolytic cell 1, the hydrogen production auxiliary equipment 2, and the purification equipment 3 are respectively hermetically arranged in a liquid medium 15, and the liquid medium 15 is water.
The instruments, meters and electric control equipment are led out by adopting underwater corrosion-resistant sealed pipeline cables, and the hydrogen is led out by a special hydrogen conveying pipeline. The electrolytic cell 1 is connected with the rectifier cabinet 7 through a waterproof cable.
In the embodiment, other hydrogen-containing equipment such as a hydrogen storage device and the like can be arranged on the underwater part, and the hydrogen production system is connected with the hydrogen storage system through a pipeline and is two separated underwater spaces. It should be understood that although the present embodiment does not mention the above-described device. However, whether or not other hydrogen-containing devices are arranged does not constitute a substantial difference from the present patent, and therefore does not limit the protection content of the present patent.
As shown in fig. 3, a transparent sealing cover 12 is arranged above the liquid medium 15, and the sealing cover 12 is used for sealing the liquid medium 15 on one hand and for measuring the underwater operation condition of the whole device in a whole-course and whole-field landscape on the other hand.

By utilizing the characteristic that the density of hydrogen is lower than that of oxygen and air, when gas leakage occurs, the hydrogen is positioned above the leaked gas and passes through the emptying valve 13 of the collecting and distributing device. When the concentration of the gas in the sealing cover plate is detected to reach a certain degree, the emptying valve is opened, and the hydrogen is dispersed outdoors. Meanwhile, an alarm signal is output, so that operation and maintenance personnel can directly observe the underwater hydrogen leakage point conveniently.
