Description

Electrochemical filter for removing total nitrogen in water
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of water treatment, and particularly relates to an electrochemical filter for removing total nitrogen in water.
Background
Electrochemistry is an effective water treatment technology for reducing nitrate radical by utilizing electrons and active hydrogen to generate nitrogen, and the technology has the advantages of no pH limitation, retention of other salt, no generation of concentrated solution, no need of adding chemicals, no back flush, easy automation control, stable effect, rapid reaction and the like, and is widely researched and applied.
Electrochemical reactor structures have been extensively studied as an important factor affecting electrochemical redox efficiency. The plate-groove type reactor is the most studied electrocatalysis reactor, but the plate-type electrode has the defects of small effective reaction area, overlarge two-stage distance of the electrode, limited mass transfer and inhibition of adsorption and oxidation-reduction reaction due to the exclusion of nitrate anions by a cathode. And cathodically reducing the species (e.g. NH) 3 ,NO 2 - ) May be re-oxidized at the anode of the plate and tank reactor, which reduces the overall faraday efficiency. In addition, oxygen gas generated at the anode dissolves in the electrolyte and diffuses to the cathode where competing oxygen reduction reactions consume electrons at the cathode. More importantly, O is generated by the oxygen evolution reaction occurring at the anode 2 Re-oxidation of nitrites to nitrates is described in the research of the Nitrogen Cycle by Electrochemical Reduction of Nitrate, progress and sites and Removal of nitrates by Electrochemical in non-chloride medium of efficiency of the anode material. One strategy is to place an ion exchange membrane between the anode and cathode and divide one chamber into two. A cation exchange membrane for blocking anionsThe ions pass from the cathode to the anode chamber so that side reactions are minimized to some extent. However, ion exchange membranes are often clogged with carbonate or organic compounds during use, see Critical Review of Pd-Based Catalytic Treatment of Priority controls in Water and Optimization of the cathode material for anode removal by a particulate electrolysis process. Furthermore, in view of the limitations of batch reactors (e.g. limited reaction area and capacity) and the difficulties of scale-up, innovative membrane reactors under certain flow conditions, which achieve the Reduction of silver Nitrate by the combined effect of the membrane's retention function and electrochemical Reduction, see electrochemical Reduction of Nitrate Using magnesium Phase TiO 2 Reactive Electrochemical Membranes with Pd-Based Catalysts and Electro-oxidation of organic polar by Reactive Electrochemical Membranes. The electrochemical membrane reactor needs to apply a certain external pressure to ensure the flow of liquid, and gas generated in the reaction process is easy to stay in the reactor, so that the membrane reactor has certain potential safety hazard.
Furthermore, the main problem of the electroreduction of nitrate on the electrodes is the low reduction rate due to the low mass transport. This considerable disadvantage limits their use in large scale applications (mass transport of nitrate to the electrode surface and diffusion of by-products from the electrode surface in solution are the main rate-limiting processes of electrochemical nitrate reduction, increasing the electrode surface area naturally contributing to faster nitrate reduction) therefore, electrodes should have liquid channels for reactant transport and gas channels for product separation, see Catalytic nitrate removal from water, past, present and future properties, electrochemical reduction of nitrate, and Catalytic pore side reactor electrochemical flow cells.
These problems have not been solved effectively, and the practical application of the electrochemical technology in removing the total nitrogen in the water body is limited.
