Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to an electrochemistry technical field, more specifically relates to a cathodic protection system of plus power supply.
Background
In order to combat corrosion of the surface of steel parts working in underground or underwater environments, two different directional technical routes, cathodic protection technology and anodic protection technology, have been developed. The utility model discloses in use cathodic protection technique to describe mainly, cathodic protection system can divide into sacrificial anode cathodic protection system and plus power cathodic protection system two kinds again.
Taking the condition of iron element in natural fresh water environment as an example, whether corrosion occurs or not can be judged from Fe-H2It is mainly divided into three types of corrosion state regions judged on an O-pH diagram (see FIGS. 5 and 6): an etch-free region; a corrosion region; a passivation region. The corrosion-free area belongs to a cathodic protection technical system, and the passivation area belongs to an anodic protection technical system. In the theoretical system of metal corrosion, corrosion refers to the process of metal atoms being converted into metal ions after metal transfers electrons to electrolyte in the environment of the electrolyte.
Following this definition, it is considered that the present invention is a definition conforming to faraday's first law (electrolysis law) that causes corrosion of a metal material in an electrolyte environment. During electrolysis, the amount of reduced species deposited on the cathode is directly proportional to the intensity of the current passed and the energization time. When electrons of metal atoms penetrate through the barrier of a double-electrode-layer interface between metal and electrolyte under the drive of polarization potential, the metal flows into the electrolyte environment, and then anodic oxidation reaction occurs on the surface of the metal material, namely corrosion occurs. On the contrary, if electrons in the electrolyte penetrate through the interface impedance of the double electric layers between the surface of the metal material and the electrolyte and enter the metal material, the surface of the metal material undergoes a cathodic reduction reaction, and an electroplating phenomenon occurs. That is, the polarized metal material is in the electrolyte environment, and the polarized current flows from the metal material into the electrolyte environment, which is the decisive condition for the corrosion of the metal in the electrolyte environment.
With the development of cities, various subway and underground power cables are greatly increased, and the devices inevitably generate stray current flowing through the ground in operation. These stray currents not only cause severe electrochemical corrosion on the exposed surface of the metal material underground or underwater, greatly increase the corrosion rate, but also have a great destructive effect on the working effect of the cathodic protection system, resulting in poor working effect of the cathodic protection system, or even complete failure.
After a stray current interference source appears in an underground or underwater environment, a spherical electric field which takes the interference source as a center, diffuses towards the periphery and gradually attenuates in electric intensity is formed due to certain conductivity of the electrolyte, and finally the electric field is attenuated to 0 potential of the ground, and the influence can reach dozens of meters or even thousands of meters. When a plurality of various interference sources exist, the spherical attenuation electric fields formed by the interference sources can mutually influence and couple, and finally, the environmental electric field E with different internal potentials of the electrolyte at different position points and different time points is formedRing (C)。
When the insulating anticorrosive coating on the surface of the steel component working in the underground or underwater environment is damaged and exposed, the environment electric field ERing (C)Current will flow from these points of exposure into or out of the steel member and at the same time the potential E of the steel member will be establishedSteelA change occurs; the steel materials all belong to extremely good electronic conductors, the resistivity is extremely low, and the game and the coupling of all stray current interference sources at a plurality of insulation anticorrosive coating damage points of the steel member finally result in the potential E of the steel memberSteelAlthough varying with time, the potential E of the steel member at each point in the steel member at the same point in timeSteelBut almost the same, the potential difference of each exposed position point on the steel member side can be completely ignored in engineering practice.
Ambient electric field ERing (C)Through the electric double layer interface at the exposed point of each surface of the steel member and the potential E of the steel memberSteelPlaying the game finally determines whether the current flows from the environment to the steel member (the bare spot is protected) or from the steel member to the environment (the bare spot is corroded) at the bare spot at different positions.
In the present invention, the electric field E due to the environment described aboveRing (C)And potential E on the steel memberSteelThe mutual game of (1) causes the electric double layer on the surface of the steel structure to form and pass through the electric double layer, and the electric currents are collectively called primary current. And in the description of the invention provision is made for the inflow from the steel componentThe positive direction of the primary current in the environment causes corrosion of the bare points of the steel member; the steel member flowing from the environment is the negative direction of the primary current, and the negative direction current enables the exposed point of the steel member to be protected.
In addition due to the ambient electric field ERing (C)Is varied with position, so that the electric field E in the environment is variedRing (C)At the exposed point with relatively high potential, current enters the steel member and passes through the steel member as an electric channel to be driven by the environment electric field VRing (C)Flows out at the bare spot where the potential is relatively low. In the utility model, the environmental electric fields E with different sizes are arranged at different positionsRing (C)In an ambient electric field ERing (C)The exposed point with high potential forms current to enter the steel member, and after the steel member is used as an electronic channel, the electric field E of other environmentsRing (C)The current flowing out of the steel member at a point where the potential is low is collectively referred to as a secondary current (or balance current). The current flowing into the environment from the steel member is specified to be the positive direction of the secondary current in the description of the utility model, and the positive direction current causes the corrosion of the exposed points of the steel member; the steel member flowing into the environment is the negative direction of the secondary current, and the exposed point of the steel member is protected by the negative direction current.
Through theoretical analysis and experimental inspection, the primary current and the secondary current are simultaneously generated and superposed with each other, and the flowing rule of the primary current and the secondary current is proved to follow the Bierhf current law, namely the sum of all the primary current and the secondary current flowing out of the steel member is equal to the sum of all the primary current and the secondary current flowing in the steel member.
The method for avoiding the occurrence of positive primary current at the damaged part of the insulating layer on the surface of the steel member comprises the following steps: the primary current is due to the ambient electric field ERing (C)On the steel material with a potential ESteelThe result of the game can be known as the environmental electric field ERing (C)Higher than the upper potential E of steel materialSteelIn time, the primary current is negative, and the corrosion phenomenon can not be found at the exposed dew point. Thus if the potential E on the steel member is changedSteelAdjusted to be always higher than the environmental electric field ERing (C)When the lowest potential of the capacitor is still low, the primary current is ensured to be negative.
The utility model discloses in the concrete engineering way that adopts be, let an electrode have the electricity to be connected with the steel member, through the electric potential of adjusting double-capacitance interface layer metal side on this electrode, because wire and steel material all have extremely low resistance for can see the two electric potential the same on the aspect that the engineering was used, thereby reach adjustment steel member electric potential ESteelThe purpose of (1). If the steel member potential E is setSteelAdjusted to specific ambient electric field ERing (C)Is still lower to a certain extent, it is ensured that the primary current generated on the surface of the steel member is all the positive primary current entering the steel member, and all the primary currents entering the steel member will be all discharged at the electrode (polarizer).
The method for avoiding negative secondary current at the damaged part of the insulating layer on the surface of the steel member comprises the following steps: the secondary current is due to the potential E at various positions in the ambient electric fieldRing (C)All the currents are different, so that current flows into the damage point of the insulating layer on the surface of the steel member at the place with high environment potential to form negative secondary current; in the place where the environmental potential is low, the secondary current flowing into the steel member flows out of the damage point of the insulating layer on the surface of the steel member, and a positive secondary current is formed.
The specific engineering method adopted in the utility model is to electrically connect an electrode with the steel component, and adjust the potential of the electrolyte side of the double-capacitance interface layer on the external power supply anode matched with the electrode, thereby leading the environmental electric field ERing (C)The effect of (a) is changed, i.e. it is ensured that all the secondary currents generated at the surface of the steel member are negative, and all the positive secondary currents will be discharged at the electrode (fluid drain). The potential applied to the anode of the external power supply and the environmental electric field ERing (C)Is related to the difference between the maximum and minimum values of (c).
In the conventional cathodic protection system, the potential of the steel material is considered as a decisive condition for determining whether the steel material is corroded, because the influence of an environmental electric field on the polarized current flow direction is not considered at all, or the environmental electric field is all 0 by default, so that great defects and defects exist in the aspects of theory and practice.
