Detailed Description
The hypochlorous acid disinfectant is obviously different from 84 disinfectant in preparation, components and properties and is also greatly different from acid oxidation potential water. The production process of the hypochlorous acid disinfectant is designed as a quick shallow precipitation electrolysis process. The production apparatus may be a diaphragm electrolyzer.
The electrolytic solution is inorganic salt solution, slightly acidic solution or the mixture of the inorganic salt solution and the slightly acidic solution. For example, in a diaphragm electrolysis cell, the chlorine salt, typically sodium chloride, is present in an amount of about 1 to 15%, and the softened water is mixed with concentrated brine, e.g., saturated brine, and pumped in, typically with a sodium chloride consumption of 1 to 20g/L (anolyte). The anode of the electrolytic cell mainly generates chlorine evolution reaction, little oxygen evolution occurs, and subacid oxidation potential water with hypochlorous acid as a main component is produced; the cathode is subjected to a hydrogen evolution reaction to produce alkaline reduction potential water having a pH of about 12 to 13, and the cathode typically produces less than 0.5%, preferably less than 0.1%, and more preferably less than 0.08% sodium hydroxide. In addition, the content of sodium ions in the slightly acidic oxidation potential water generated by the anode is low (preferably less than 0.9%), and the main effective chlorine component of the slightly acidic oxidation potential water is hypochlorous acid; the slightly acidic electrolyzed water generally contains about 70-650ppm of available chlorine, preferably 100-610ppm of available chlorine, more preferably 105-600ppm, and more preferably 110-570ppm of available chlorine, wherein the main component of the available chlorine is hypochlorous acid. The oxidation-reduction potential of the anode effluent is not more than 1000mV, preferably not more than 900mV, preferably 600-900mV, more preferably 700-850 mV; the pH thereof is controlled to 4 to 7, preferably 4.5 to 6.8, more preferably 5 to 6.5.
There are technical equipments such as AQUACIDO NDX-250KMS available from OSG, Fineox FO-1000S2 available from first ocean corporation, LWas series or Was series-anode-HClO generator, DCW hypochlorous acid generator from Denmark, etc. for producing hypochlorous acid oxidation potential water by electrolyzing saline solution.
The oxidation potential water yield can be controlled at 500-1500L/h, the current value is generally between 90-400A, preferably not less than 100A, the salt consumption is about 2-15 g/g available chlorine, preferably 5-13 g/g available chlorine, the energy consumption is 1-30 W.hr/g available chlorine, preferably 5-25 W.hr/g available chlorine, and about 50-80% of the chloride ions are converted.
The produced slightly acidic electrolyzed water may be left to stand for a period of time, for example, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 10, 12, 20, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours, preferably 0.5 to 24 hours, more preferably 1 to 8 hours.
The stabilizer is generally an organic or inorganic salt, for example, one or more mixtures of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal water-soluble salts of formate or acetate or phosphate or silicate or halate or hypochlorite or chlorite or perchlorate bromate or carbonate or bicarbonate or acetate or sulfamate or citrate, preferably an inorganic salt, in particular potassium or sodium salts thereof, more preferably a halate, in particular iodate, and one or more mixtures of sulfate, carbonate, hydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate and hydrogen carbonate, in particular potassium or sodium salts thereof.
Halate refers to oxyacid salts of halogen elements having a valence of +5, such as chlorate, bromate, iodate, preferably their sodium or potassium salts, more preferably iodate, such as NaIO3、KIO3And the like.
The total amount of stabilizers added is generally not more than 0.5% by weight, preferably not more than 0.1%. The components (including halide salts, organic salts and inorganic salts) are generally added in amounts of 0.0005% to 0.05% (i.e. 5 to 500ppm), preferably 0.005% to 0.04% (i.e. 50 to 400ppm), more preferably 0.015% to 0.03%, for example 100, 120, 150, 170, 200, 220, 250, 270, 300, 350, 400, 500ppm, respectively.
The order of addition of the stabilizers is generally to add the halide salt, e.g., iodate, to the slightly acidic electrolyzed water produced and then to add the other stabilizers after a period of standing.
Typically the final product contains about 70-600ppm available chlorine, preferably 100-580ppm, more preferably 160-570ppm, more preferably 250-550ppm available chlorine, in which the main component of available chlorine is hypochlorous acid, typically greater than 80%, preferably greater than 90%, such as 90-92%, more preferably greater than 95%.
The softened water can be tap water softened or purified water produced by pure water production equipment, and has total hardness of less than 25mg/L (as CaCO)3Meter).
FIG. 1 is a schematic process flow diagram of the present invention. The raw water is subjected to activated carbon adsorption filtration, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis filtration to obtain purified water. Purified water is pumped into the electrolysis cell under the control of a constant pressure valve. Meanwhile, high-concentration chloride solution (the concentration is more than 15 percent), such as saturated salt solution, is pumped into a water inlet pipeline in front of the electrolytic bath by a special pump. The pumping amount of the chlorine salt and the current applied to the electrolytic cell are varied depending on the effective chlorine concentration of the hypochlorous acid solution at the outlet of the electrolytic cell. The production process of the invention is a rapid shallow-evolution electrolysis process, the current is controlled to be 100-350A (according to different product specifications), and the oxidation-reduction potential is controlled to be below 900 mV. The softened water content is controlled at 900-1800L/h, and the chlorine salt content in the electrolytic bath is estimated to be about 1-15%, preferably 2-10%. Purified water is pumped into the electrolysis cell under the control of a constant pressure valve. The subacid oxidation potential water is anode effluent, and the amount of the subacid oxidation potential water accounts for 60-70% of the total effluent; the cathode mainly produces sodium hydroxide solution, and the yield of the sodium hydroxide solution is about 30-40% of the total water yield.
The subacid oxidation potential hypochlorous acid disinfectant has good disinfection effect and high stability by controlling raw materials and production process flow. According to the stability acceleration experiment of the disinfection technical specification (2002 edition) and after being stored for 14 days at 54 ℃, the reduction rate of the sterilization effective components is less than or equal to 10 percent, and the storage period can be determined as 1 year. The effective chlorine of the disinfectant is determined to be reduced by no more than 5 percent, which is far better than the requirement of 10 percent in the technical Specification for disinfection, so that the subacid oxidation potential hypochlorous acid disinfectant can be stably stored for a long time, for example, at least 12 months, 18 months or 24 months. Particularly, the hypochlorous acid electrolyzed water disinfectant with high concentration, which is difficult to be preserved for a long time, particularly the hypochlorous acid electrolyzed water disinfectant with the effective chlorine content of more than 250ppm, for example, the specification of 250-550ppm, can achieve the stable preservation effect.

The obtained hypochlorous acid electrolyzed water was added with 160ppm of potassium iodate, allowed to stand for 10 hours, and then 200ppm each of sodium dihydrogen phosphate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium sulfate, and sodium carbonate was added.
The pH and the concentration of available chlorine were measured, and the content of available chlorine was 262ppm, as measured by the available chlorine measurement in accordance with the Disinfection Specification (2002 edition, Ministry of health).
