Water electrolysis system for accelerating cold start
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of electrolytic water systems, in particular to an electrolytic water system for accelerating cold start.
Background
Hydrogen has the advantages of high energy density, long storage time, small loss and the like, and is an indispensable component in the modern chemical industry. It is widely used in oil refining and in the production of ammonia, methanol and steel, but currently more than 96% of hydrogen comes from the thermochemical reforming of traditional fossil resources, which is incompatible with carbon abatement requirements. The green low-carbon development is a necessary choice, and the renewable energy transformation and the improvement of the energy utilization efficiency are necessary routes. The hydrogen production by water electrolysis is a new technology for realizing the real green hydrogen production by using renewable energy sources. Water electrolysis technologies mainly include Alkaline Water Electrolysis (AWE), proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEM) and Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOEC). The AWE occupies the largest market share and has the advantages of low investment cost, durability, mature technology and the like. The cold start-up time for kw-megawatt scale AWE systems is typically 1-3 hours, which longer start-up times make them more problematic when combined with renewable energy sources. Meanwhile, the hydrogen generated in the process has to be discharged into the atmosphere due to low purity, so that energy waste is caused, the greenhouse effect is increased, the temperature is a main factor influencing the starting time, the AWE current density is low, the heating rate of alkali liquor is very slow, the heating rate of the alkali liquor can be accelerated, the reaction temperature can be quickly reached, and the cold starting time can be greatly shortened.
Thus, in view of the above problems, we propose an electrolytic water system that accelerates cold start.
