In order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present invention, the structure of the present invention is explained in detail by several specific embodiments.
The utility model discloses a first embodiment provides a fuel cell uses deionization device, include: the exchange channel is used for circulating cooling liquid; an ion exchange resin layer 15 disposed in the exchange passage for adsorbing ions separated from the coolant flowing through the exchange passage; and the capacitance deionization structure is arranged on the inner wall of the exchange channel and is used for adsorbing ions separated out by the cooling liquid flowing through the exchange channel.
In this regard, without applying an external voltage, a part of ions precipitated in the coolant flowing through the exchange passage can be completely adsorbed by the ion exchange resin layer 15. When the external circuit is electrified, the capacitive deionization structure forms an electrostatic field in the exchange channel, so that another part of ions precipitated in the cooling liquid flowing through the exchange channel is adsorbed by the capacitive deionization structure. Thereby preventing the ion exchange resin layer 15 from reaching a saturated state too quickly, and greatly improving the service life of the fuel cell deionization apparatus.
Specifically, according to fig. 1 and 2, a first embodiment of the present invention provides a fuel cell deionization apparatus, wherein in this embodiment, the fuel cell deionization apparatus may be a deionization tank, and of course, in this embodiment, the specific application scenario and form of the deionization apparatus are not limited. The fuel cell deionization apparatus includes: and the exchange channel and the ion exchange resin layer are in 15-stage capacitive deionization structure.
Wherein the exchange channel is used for the circulation of cooling liquid. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the source and components of the cooling liquid are not limited, and only the requirements of the present embodiment are satisfied, such as: the coolant is used to cool the fuel cell device.
The ion exchange resin layer 15 is arranged in the exchange channel, and the ion exchange resin layer 15 is used for adsorbing ions separated out from the cooling liquid flowing through the exchange channel; namely: the ion exchange resin layers 15 are distributed in the exchange channel, and of course, in this embodiment, the distribution manner of the ion exchange resin layers 15 is not limited, and they may be sequentially arranged along the length direction of the exchange channel, or alternatively fixed on the inner wall of the exchange channel; of course, in another embodiment, the ion exchange resin layer 15 fills the exchange channels.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the ions deposited from the coolant can be adsorbed by the ion exchange resin layer 15.
In addition, the capacitive deionization structure is arranged on the inner wall of the exchange channel and is used for adsorbing ions separated out by the cooling liquid flowing through the exchange channel.
Therefore, in this embodiment, when the external circuit is powered on, an electric field is formed in the exchange channel, so that the capacitive deionization structure can also adsorb ions precipitated from the cooling liquid, thereby reducing the amount of ions adsorbed by the ion exchange resin layer 15. When the external power supply is turned off, the ions stored in the capacitive deionization structure are again precipitated and returned to the inside of the coolant. In this way, the capacitor deionization structure shares the adsorption of ions precipitated from the cooling liquid, so that the saturation of the ion exchange resin layer 15 can be greatly delayed, and the service life of the deionization device for the fuel cell and the deionization efficiency of the cooling liquid are greatly improved.
Of course, in another embodiment, when the fuel cell de-ionization device stops working, the external power supply can be cut off, so that the ions stored in the capacitive de-ionization structure can be separated out and return to the inside of the cooling liquid, and at this time, the cooling liquid at this time only needs to be discharged. The lifetime of a capacitive deionization structure is theoretically infinite, since it proceeds reversibly without consuming any material.
In addition, when the ion exchange resin layer 15 is saturated and cannot be used for ion adsorption, the capacitive deionization structure can still be used. Furthermore, the ion exchange resin layer 15 and the capacitive deionization structure do not necessarily have to be used together, and one option is: the ion exchange resin layer 15 is mainly used for adsorption in the early stage of the life cycle of the fuel cell deionization device, and the capacitance deionization structure is mainly used in the later stage.
