Description

Regenerieren der bei der elektrolytischen Herstellung von Perborat verwendeten Elektrolytlösungen. Es ist bekannt, daß bei der Elektrolyse einer wäßrigen Lösung von Soda und Borax das schwerlösliche Natriumperborat entsteht. Bei diesem Vorgange liefert die Soda das zur Überführung von Borax in Natriumperborat notwendige Alkali. Die Elektrolytlösung erleidet also insofern während der Elektrolyse eine Veränderung, als ein Teil der Soda in Bikarbonat übergeht. Da mit der Zunahme dieses Salzes die Stromausbeute sinkt, so ist es notwendig, dieses Salz wieder in Soda zurückzuverwandeln. Bei der technischen Ausführung des Verfahrens geschieht dies durch Zugabe von Natronlauge oder durch gelöschten Kalk. Selbstverständlich müssen Soda und Borax gemäß dem ausgeschiedenen Natriumperborat bei der dauernden Wiederverwendung der Elektrolytlösung fortlaufend ergänzt werden.Regeneration of the electrolytic production of perborate electrolyte solutions used. It is known that in the electrolysis of an aqueous Solution of soda and borax the poorly soluble sodium perborate is formed. With this one In the process, the soda provides what is necessary to convert borax into sodium perborate Alkali. The electrolyte solution thus suffers a during the electrolysis Change as some of the soda turns into bicarbonate. As with the increase of this Salt's power output drops, so it is necessary to turn this salt back into soda to transform back. This happens during the technical execution of the process by adding caustic soda or slaked lime. Of course you have to Soda and borax according to the excreted sodium perborate in the case of continuous reuse the electrolyte solution must be continuously replenished.

Es hat sich nun aber gezeigt, daß trotz der Anwendung dieser Maßnahmen der dauernden Verwendung der Elektrolytlösung Schwierigkeiten entgegenstehen, die sich in einem allmählichen Absinken der Stromausbeute äußern, so daß schließlich die Grenze der Wirtschaftlichkeit erreicht wird und mit einer neu bereiteten Elektrolytlösung weitergearbeitet werden muß.It has now been shown, however, that despite the application of these measures the continuous use of the electrolyte solution oppose difficulties that manifest themselves in a gradual decrease in the current yield, so that finally the limit of economic efficiency is reached and with a newly prepared electrolyte solution must be continued.

Für die Technik ist es daher von hoher Bedeutung, ein Verfahren ausfindig zu machen, daß die erwähnte unangenehme Eigenschaft der Elektrolytlösung beseitigt und es gestattet, diese Lösung mit dauernd guten Stromausbeuten im Kreislauf verwenden zu können.It is therefore of great importance for technology to find a method to make that eliminates the aforementioned unpleasant property of the electrolyte solution and it allows this solution to be used with permanently good current yields in the circuit to be able to.

Es wurde nun die überraschende Beobachtung gemacht, daß dies gelingt, wenn man die Lösung hin und wieder mit einem Zusatz von Silica-Gel aufkocht. Es scheint demnach das Absinken der Stromausbeute mit der Anreicherung von Katalysatoren in außerordentlich feiner Verteilung, die auf den aktiven Sauerstoff zersetzend wirken, zusammenzuhängen. Diese Katalysatoren scheinen von dem Silica-Gel absorbiert und somit aus der Lösung herausgenommen zu werden. So sank z. B. nach mehrmaliger Verwendung eines Soda-Borax-Elektrolyten die Stromausbeute von anfänglich 50 Prozent darin nach und nach auf 35 Prozent herunter. Wurde jedoch die Lösung vor einer erneuten Elektrolyse mit feinkörnigem Silica-Gel (etwa z g auf 11 Lösung) versetzt, aufgekocht und vom Silica-Gel getrennt, so stieg die Stromausbeute wieder auf den. ursprünglichen Wert von 50 Prozent an.The surprising observation has now been made that this succeeds if the solution is occasionally boiled up with the addition of silica gel. Accordingly, the decrease in the current yield seems to be related to the accumulation of catalysts in extremely fine distribution, which have a decomposing effect on the active oxygen. These catalysts appear to be absorbed by the silica gel and thus taken out of the solution. So sank z. B. After using a soda-borax electrolyte several times, the current yield gradually falls from an initial 50 percent to 35 percent. However, the solution before re-electrolysis with fine-grain silica gel was added (about 1 zg 1 solution), boiled, and separated by silica gel, so the current efficiency increased again to the. original value of 50 percent.

Unter Silica-Gel versteht man eine glasähn; liehe, mehr oder minder feinkörnige Masse aus reiner Kieselsäure, die eine große innere Oberflächenentwickelung besitzt. (Vgl. z. B. M e y e r, Zeitschrift für angewandte Chemie, Bd. 3'j, 1924, S. 36 und 2o9, und amerikanische Patentschrift 1297724).Silica gel means a glass-like; borrowed, more or less fine-grained mass of pure silica, which has a large internal surface development owns. (See e.g. M e y e r, Journal for Applied Chemistry, Vol. 3'j, 1924, pp. 36 and 2o9, and American patent 1297724).
