Description

Novel electrode unit with guiding wedge-shaped structure, electrolysis unit and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogen production by water electrolysis, and particularly relates to an electrode unit with a novel guide wedge-shaped structure, an electrolysis unit and application.
Background
The hydrogen energy is a novel clean energy source, and only water is finally generated in the hydrogen energy utilization process, so that pollutants and carbon dioxide emission can not be generated. Therefore, the development of hydrogen energy technology is imperative in the current large development of clean energy and the history of "carbon peak", "carbon neutralization". At present, the water electrolysis hydrogen production is the most commonly used hydrogen production method which is also the only large-scale commercial operation. The structure of the electrolytic tank determines the flow distribution of the electrolyte and has important influence on the efficiency of the electrolytic hydrogen production process. The surface of the main electrode plate inside the electrolytic cell (cell) of the filter-pressing type electrolytic cell in commercial use at present adopts a structure (emulsion convex structure) with alternate concavities and convexities, as shown in fig. 1. The design of the structure is initially designed, on one hand, the polar plates on two sides can form multipoint contact in a top-to-top mode; on the other hand, the disturbance degree of the flow is increased, the concentration difference of the electrolyte at each position in the flow channel is reduced, and the electrolyte is distributed more uniformly. However, in practical application, the electrode plate with the breast-convex structure has the following disadvantages:
1. when the alkali liquor flows in the small chamber, the concave-convex structure can generate flow vertical to the electrode plate, but the lack of transverse flow can lead to uneven distribution of the alkali liquor in the radial direction of the electrode plate, and the more serious the uneven distribution of the alkali liquor is along with the increase of the size of the electrolytic tank, the larger development of the electrolytic tank equipment is greatly hindered;
2. the concave-convex structure on the surface of the polar plate makes the polar plates on two sides be in top-to-top contact, namely, the polar plates are not completely in contact, and a large number of bubbles generated by the small chamber move to the position near the concave-convex top along with the progress of electrolysis, so that the contact resistance of the polar plates is increased, and the electrolysis energy consumption is increased;
3. when bubbles in the electrolysis unit pass through the concave-convex structure, the bubbles can be possibly blocked at the concave positions, so that the residence time of the bubbles is increased, and the electrolysis energy consumption is increased.
In summary, a new electrode plate structure is needed to overcome the defects of the existing electrode plate.

Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are illustrative and intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the invention.
The electrode unit and the electrolytic unit of the novel guide wedge structure according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 2 to 8, an electrode unit of a novel guiding wedge structure includes: an electrode frame 1 and an electrode plate 2; an electrode plate 2 is arranged in the electrode frame 1, and the electrode plate are coaxially arranged; the electrode frame 1 and the electrode plate 2 form a liquid storage cavity 7; the electrode frame 1 is provided with a liquid inlet runner 3 and a gas-liquid outlet runner 4 which are communicated with the liquid storage cavity 7; the electrode plate 2 is a steel plate, and a plurality of wedge-shaped units 6 which are arranged in a concave-convex manner are arranged on the surface of the electrode plate 2 in the liquid storage cavity 7 at intervals; the wedge-shaped units 6 are uniformly distributed, and each wedge-shaped unit 6 is arranged at an acute angle with the flow direction of the liquid flowing through the electrode plate 2.
It can be understood that when the electrolytic water is used for hydrogen production, alkali liquor enters from the liquid inlet flow channel and uniformly flows through gaps of the wedge-shaped units when flowing through the electrode plates, the wedge-shaped units are arranged in a concave-convex mode, so that the distribution effect can be achieved in the direction parallel to the surfaces of the electrode plates, and the alkali liquor can also be disturbed in the direction perpendicular to the surfaces of the electrode plates when flowing through the electrode plates due to the fact that the alkali liquor is concave-concave with the protrusions of the wedge-shaped units.
In summary, when the novel electrode unit with the guide wedge-shaped structure is used for producing hydrogen by electrolyzing water, due to the fact that the plurality of wedge-shaped structure units which are arranged in the concave-convex mode are arranged, the effect of transverse distribution is achieved on alkali liquid flowing from the liquid inlet flow channel and passing through the electrode plates, uniform distribution of the alkali liquid on the electrode plates is promoted, meanwhile, fluid turbulence in the vertical direction and the transverse direction can be generated, the flowing turbulence degree is greatly increased, bubble transportation can be accelerated, the residence time of bubbles in a cavity is shortened, the mass transfer process of hydrogen production reaction is enhanced, and the hydrogen production efficiency of a system is improved.
Optionally, the electrode frame 1 is annular; the electrode plate 2 is embedded in the inner circumference of the electrode frame 1, and the electrode plate and the electrode frame are welded into a whole.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2-4 and fig. 6-8, a plurality of raised wedge-shaped units 6 are arranged in rows at certain intervals, and a plurality of recessed wedge-shaped units 6 are arranged in rows at certain intervals; the convex wedge-shaped units 6 arranged in rows are parallel to the concave wedge-shaped units 6 arranged in rows and are arranged at intervals. The convex wedge-shaped units and the concave wedge-shaped units of two adjacent rows are arranged at intervals. It should be noted that the "protrusion" and the "depression" are opposite, and are both relative to the surface of the electrode plate, the former is directed to the side close to the liquid storage cavity, and the latter is directed to the side far from the liquid storage cavity. The protruding wedge units can be arranged in a plurality of rows, the recessed wedge units can be arranged in a plurality of rows, the number of rows arranged respectively is based on the size of the electrode plate, and the larger the size of the electrode plate is, the more the number of rows is, and conversely, the fewer the number of rows is. However, it is necessary to ensure that both sides of each row of raised wedge-shaped elements are immediately adjacent to a row of recessed wedge-shaped elements, and that each raised wedge-shaped element is spaced from its adjacent recessed wedge-shaped element. The spacing between two adjacent rows of wedge-shaped units may be equal to or different from the spacing between two adjacent wedge-shaped units in the same row, but preferably the spacing between two adjacent rows of wedge-shaped units is larger than the spacing between two adjacent wedge-shaped units in the same row. The spacing between two raised wedge-shaped units belonging to the same row is equal to the spacing between two recessed wedge-shaped units belonging to the same row.
Alternatively, a plurality of wedge units 6 are formed on the electrode plate 2 by cold-rolling deep drawing. It will be appreciated that by cold deep drawing the electrode plate is machined separately on opposite sides thereof, while the concave wedge-shaped elements are formed on one side of the drawing, i.e. the convex wedge-shaped elements are formed on the other side, and vice versa, such that a number of concave-convex arranged wedge-shaped elements are formed on the surface of the electrode plate, as shown in fig. 6-8.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2-4, each wedge-shaped element 6 is arranged at 30-45, preferably 45, to the direction of flow of liquid from the liquid inlet channel 3 into the electrode plate 2, as shown in fig. 5. Further, as shown in fig. 5, the plurality of wedge-shaped units 6 are each composed of two first members 601 and second members 602 which are at an acute angle or a right angle to each other; the first member 601 or the second member 602 is arranged at 30-45 deg., preferably 45 deg., to the flow direction of the liquid entering the electrode plate 2 from the liquid inlet flow channel 3. Preferably, in the wedge-shaped units 6 of the plurality of protrusions, the first member 601 and the second member 602 are protrusions having a rectangular parallelepiped or square shape, preferably rectangular parallelepiped shape. In the plurality of concave wedge-shaped units 6, the first member 601 and the second member 602 are rectangular or square-shaped grooves, preferably rectangular-shaped grooves. It will be appreciated that the first member 601 and the second member 602 are rectangular or square, and the surfaces thereof are smooth, which reduces the fluid resistance. However, the first member 601 and the second member 602 may have a non-smooth surface, so that the wedge-shaped unit may also function as a liquid disturbance in the lateral and vertical directions, but may have a weak effect of reducing the fluid resistance.
Optionally, the liquid inlet runner 3 and the gas-liquid outlet runner 4 are both arranged on the surface of the electrode frame 1, which is far away from the electrode plate and is positioned on one side in the liquid storage cavity 7, and are oppositely arranged; the liquid inlet flow channel 3 and the gas-liquid outlet flow channel 4 are both arranged along the depth direction of the liquid storage cavity 7.

Thus, when the liquid flowing in from the liquid inlet flow channel 3 flows through the electrode plate, the liquid is subjected to a distribution process from narrow to wide once through each row of concave wedge-shaped units or convex wedge-shaped units, so that the uniformity of liquid distribution can be improved.
When in use, the electrode unit with the novel guiding wedge structure of the embodiment of the invention is fastened with the nickel screen electrode 5 covered on one side of the liquid storage cavity (the nickel screen electrode 5 is covered on the electrode plate 2) to form a corresponding electrolysis cell (electrolysis unit), as shown in fig. 4. Raw material alkali liquor flows in through an alkali liquor inlet runner 3, hydrogen or oxygen is generated in the electrolysis unit through electrolytic reaction, and then a mixture of the alkali liquor and the gas flows out from a gas-liquid outlet runner 4 and enters the next working section. In the whole working process, the wedge-shaped structural units which are arranged in a concave-convex way play a role in transversely distributing the alkali liquor flowing through, so that the uniform distribution of the alkali liquor on the electrode plates is promoted; meanwhile, the concave-convex arranged wedge-shaped structural units can generate fluid disturbance in the vertical direction and the transverse direction, so that the flow turbulence degree is greatly increased, the transportation of bubbles can be accelerated, the residence time of the bubbles in a cavity is shortened, the mass transfer process of the hydrogen production reaction is enhanced, and the hydrogen production efficiency of the system is improved.
