hydroxider kendes allerede multiple elektrolytiske celler med 7) lodrette skillevægge. Fra USA-patentskrifteme nr. 2 742 419 og ^ nr. 2 742 420 kendes således celler med et katoderum, som be- J· står af et stort antal til en enhed forbundne katodeafdelinger, [— som hver er omgivet af en (jemmaske-katode. Skillevæggene eller ^ diafragmaeme er anbragt imellem de tilsvarende anodeplader, som ^ er anbragt tæt ved hinanden inden for en rummelig, tæt beholder 2 143290 og er fastgjort til denne. Fra engelsk patent nr. 1 153 502 kendes desuden en tilsvarende celle, ved hvilken et enkelt, langt katodekammer strækker sig zig-zag-formet gennem mellemrummene imellem talrige anodeplader, som ligeledes befinder sig side om side i en rummelig, tætnet, med anoder forsynet beholder.hydroxides are already known multiple electrolytic cells with 7) vertical partitions. Thus, U.S. Patent Nos. 2,742,419 and 2,742,420 disclose cells with a cathode compartment consisting of a large number of cathode compartments connected to a unit, [- each surrounded by a The partitions or diaphragms are arranged between the corresponding anode plates which are placed close to each other within a spacious, tight container 2 and are attached thereto. a single, long cathode chamber extending zig-zag-shaped through the spaces between numerous anode plates, which are also located side by side in a spacious, sealed, anodized container.
Ved disse kendte elektrolyseceller har anodepladerne i almindelighed en forholdsvis stor overflade, som kan være omtrent 70-80 cm høj og kan have en bredde fra omtrent 100-200 cm. Desuden er anoderne og katoderne anbragt i en meget ringe afstand fra hinanden, i størrelsesordenen 1 cm. Ved den størrelse af pladerne har det vist sig meget vanskeligt at opretholde nævnte smalle mellemrum ensartet overalt i cellen. Derfor skal den midterste celle-spænding på et niveau på mere end 4,0 volt. En yderligere ulempe ved kendte celler består i, at beton- eller gummibeklædningen, som med indervæggene af beholderen, som bærer anoderne, er belagt, ikke beskytter beholderen tilstrækkeligt imod en korrosion som følge af den ved anoden opståede chlorgas, således at hyppig reparation af beholderen er nødvendig. Også jemmaske-katoden og diafragmaet skal ofte repareres eller udskiftes, hvorunder det er nødvendigt at demontere alle cellens enkeltdele og påny sammensætte dem efter udskiftning af beskadigede eller opbrugte dele.In these known electrolytic cells, the anode plates generally have a relatively large surface which may be about 70-80 cm high and may have a width of about 100-200 cm. In addition, the anodes and cathodes are located at a very small distance apart, on the order of 1 cm. At that size of the plates, it has proved very difficult to maintain said narrow spaces uniformly throughout the cell. Therefore, the middle cell voltage must be at a level of more than 4.0 volts. A further disadvantage of known cells is that the concrete or rubber lining, which is coated with the inner walls of the container bearing the anodes, does not adequately protect the container against corrosion due to the chlorine gas produced at the anode, so that frequent repair of the container is necessary. Also, the mesh mask cathode and diaphragm often need to be repaired or replaced, during which it is necessary to disassemble all the individual parts of the cell and reassemble them after replacing damaged or used parts.
Det er overordentlig tids- og arbejdskrævende, hvorhos der opstår en yderligere udgift ved, at pladeafstandene inden for cellen påny skal indstilles.It is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive that incurs an additional expense by re-adjusting the plate distances within the cell.
Opfindelsen har til formål at tilvejebringe en elektrolysecelle, ved hvilken der kan opnås ensartet afstand mellem anoderne og katoderne uden store udgifter, således at cellen kan drives med en cellespænding for den midterste celle på under 4,0 V og ved hvilken en let og hurtig reparation af beskadigede og brugte dele er mulig.The invention has for its object to provide an electrolytic cell in which uniform spacing between the anodes and cathodes can be achieved without great expense, so that the cell can be operated with a cell voltage for the middle cell of less than 4.0 V and at which easy and fast repair of damaged and used parts is possible.
Dette formål opnås ifølge opfindelsen ved, at den indledningsvis angivne multiple elektrolytiske celle er ejendommelig ved det i den kendetegnende del af krav 1 angivne.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the multiple electrolytic cell initially stated is characterized by the characterizing part of claim 1.
Opfindelsens fordel skyldes i det væsentlige,- at hver celleenhed er en i og for sig færdig enhed, ved hvilken katodenettene omfatter anode-plader som et bur, og ved hvilken alle elektrodernes 3 143290 befæstigelse foretages på en og samme del, nemlig tankens bundplade. Derved kan en god, hele tiden reproducerbar justering af elektrodeafstande udføres uden særligt justeringsarbejde, og derved opnås også en enkel og hurtig montage. Hvis katodenettene, som normalt er mest reparationsfølsomme, en gang skal udskiftes, bliver katodeburet blot løst fra bundpladen og erstattet med et nyt bur. Dette kommer derved naturnødvendigt straks i den rigtige stilling i forhold til anodeplademe, der behøver altså ikke at efterjusteres og det er ikke nødvendigt at adskille den samlede elektrolysecelle.The advantage of the invention is essentially due to the fact that each cell unit is a unit completed in itself, in which the cathode networks comprise anode plates as a cage, and in which all the attachment of the electrodes is carried out on one and the same part, namely the bottom plate of the tank. In this way, a good, always reproducible adjustment of electrode distances can be performed without any special adjustment work, and thus also a simple and quick installation is achieved. If the cathode nets, which are usually the most repair-sensitive, need to be replaced once, the cathode cage is simply loosened from the base plate and replaced with a new cage. This, of course, is immediately necessary in the right position in relation to the anode plates, which do not need to be re-adjusted and it is not necessary to separate the total electrolytic cell.
Opfindelsen skal i det følgende nærmere beskrives med henvisning til tegningen, hvorpå fig. 1 er et tværsnitsbillede langs linien A-A af en celleenhed, som er vist i fig. 2, og viser den måde, på hvilken enhedscellen er fastgjort til en stor katodetank, og fig. 2 er et skematisk, brudstykkeagtigt perspektivisk billede af en multipel elektrolytisk celle af typen med lodret skillevæg ifølge en udførelsesform for opfindelsen med katodetanken vist delvis i snit.The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the drawing, in which fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view along line A-A of a cell unit shown in FIG. 2, showing the manner in which the unit cell is attached to a large cathode tank, and FIG. 2 is a schematic fragmentary perspective view of a multiple vertical partition type electrolytic cell according to an embodiment of the invention with the cathode tank partially shown in section.
i fig. 1 er vist en celleenhed 1, som består af et sæt af to lodrette tltanium-anodeplader 2, som er 2 til 3 mm tykke, elektroplettet med et metal 3, f.eks. platin; en jeramaskekatoderamme 4 beklædt med en asbestskillevæg 3, som er således anbragt, at den omgiver hvert sæt af anodeplader 2 med et fast mellemrum på omkring 6 mm; en hætte 6 fremstillet af et materiale som er modstandsdygtigt overfor korrosion af chlorgas og en opløsning af almindeligt salt og fastgjort til den øverste del af nævnte katoderamme 4; og en hulning 7» som er fremstillet af tilsvarende korrosionsbestandigt materiale og indsat i den nederste del af katoderammen 4. Det korrosionsbestandige materiale kan f.eks. bestå af gummi, polyvinylchlorid eller polyvinylidenfluorld. Den rundtgående del 8 af bundhulningen 7 dækker helt en jernramme 11. Nederste dele af skillevæggen 5 og jernmaskekatoderammen 4 er presset mod den perifere del 8 ved hjælp af flanger 12, som på deres side er fastgjort til en jernbundplade 9 ved skruesæt 13, og det vil bevirke, at jemmaskekatoderammen 4 bliver elektrisk forbundet til en stor katodetank 10, som er rigtigt forbundet til en katodesamleskinne, som ikke er vist på figuren.in FIG. 1, a cell unit 1 is shown which consists of a set of two vertical titanium anode plates 2 which are 2 to 3 mm thick, electroplated with a metal 3, e.g. platinum; a Jeremy cat cathode frame 4 lined with an asbestos partition 3 so arranged that it surrounds each set of anode plates 2 at a fixed space of about 6 mm; a cap 6 made of a material resistant to corrosion of chlorine gas and a solution of common salt and attached to the upper part of said cathode frame 4; and a hollow 7 'made of corresponding corrosion-resistant material and inserted into the lower portion of the cathode frame 4. The corrosion-resistant material can e.g. consist of rubber, polyvinyl chloride or polyvinylidene fluoride. The circumferential portion 8 of the bottom hole 7 completely covers an iron frame 11. The lower portions of the partition 5 and the iron mask cathode frame 4 are pressed against the peripheral portion 8 by flanges 12, which in turn are attached to an iron bottom plate 9 by screw set 13, and the will cause the jam mask cathode frame 4 to be electrically connected to a large cathode tank 10 which is properly connected to a cathode collector rail not shown in the figure.

De to lodrette anodeplader 2 er ved svejsning fastgjort til mindst to lignende lodrette titanium-belagte kobberstænger 14, som er omkring 30 mm i diameter. Den nederste ende af kobberstangen 14 går igennem en jerabundplade 9, og rager ned derfra og er stramt fastgjort til en tilsvarende anodesamleskinne 16 med en respektiv bolt.The two vertical anode plates 2 are attached by welding to at least two similar vertical titanium-coated copper bars 14 which are about 30 mm in diameter. The lower end of the copper rod 14 passes through an iron bottom plate 9 and projects down therefrom and is tightly secured to a corresponding anode collector rail 16 with a respective bolt.
Et gummipakningsrør 19 er indsat i et mellemrum mellem et gennem-føringshul 18 for hulningen 7 og jerribundpladen 9 og den udvendige periferi af kobberstangen 14, for derved at opnå isolation imellem anoden og katodedelene og desuden forhindrer lækage af anodevæske.A rubber gasket 19 is inserted into a gap between a through-hole 18 for the hole 7 and the jerry bottom plate 9 and the outer periphery of the copper rod 14, thereby providing insulation between the anode and cathode portions and further preventing anode fluid leakage.
For at holde afstanden mellem anodepladen og sidevæggen af katoderammen konstant bliver de udvendige sidevægge af sættet af anodeplader 2 understøttet af et antal skruer 20, som elektrisk er isoleret og holdt gastæt af en pakning 21 for derved at forhindre bevægelse af den øverste del af sættet af anodeplader 2.In order to keep the distance between the anode plate and the side wall of the cathode frame constant, the outer side walls of the set of anode plates 2 are supported by a number of screws 20 which are electrically insulated and held gas tight by a gasket 21, thereby preventing movement of the upper part of the set of anode plates 2.
Hvor det ønskes at simplificere samlingen af anodepladerne 2 og kobberstangen 14, kan begge dele fremstilles sammenhængende af grafit. Fordi grafitmateriale imidlertid bliver underkastet sammen-krølning, mens det bliver støbt ind i nævnte system eller under operation, er en grafitanodedel ikke særligt accepteret ved industriel produktion af kaustisk soda i stor målestok.Where it is desired to simplify the assembly of the anode plates 2 and the copper rod 14, both can be made continuous from graphite. However, because graphite material is subjected to curling while being molded into said system or during operation, a graphite anode portion is not particularly accepted in industrial production of large-scale caustic soda.
Et stort antal enhedsceller 1, som er konstrueret som beskrevet ovenover, er anbragt som vist i fig. 2 i katodetanken 10 ved det foreskrevne interval på 10 mm i elektrisk parallelforbindelse. Topoverfladen af hætten 6 af enhedscellen 1 er gastæt forbundet med et korrosionsbestandigt fluidumrør 22, gennem hvilket saltvand eller chlo-ridgas passerer. Dette fluidumrør 22 passerer gastæt gennem det øverste låg 23 af katodetanken 10, så det rager op derfra så det er forbundet med et korrosionsbestandigt hovedrør 24, som vandret forløber over katodetanken 10. Hovedrøret 24 er i den ene ende forbundet til et saltvandstilførselsrør 25. Til den øverste side af hovedrøret 24 er tilsluttet et lodret overrør 26, hvis øverste ende er forbundet med et udløbsrør 27 for chlorgas. Overrøret 26 er forsynet med en væskeniveauindikator (ikke vist). Det øverste låg 23 af katodetanken 10 er forbundet med et hydrogengasudløbsrør 28, og én sidevæg 29 af katodetanken 10 er forsynet med et udløbsrør 30 for en kaustisk sodaopløsning ved et punkt som er næsten lige så højt som hætten 6 for enhedscellen 1.A large number of unit cells 1 constructed as described above are arranged as shown in FIG. 2 in the cathode tank 10 at the prescribed interval of 10 mm in electrical parallel connection. The top surface of the cap 6 of the unit cell 1 is gas tightly connected to a corrosion resistant fluid tube 22 through which saline or chloride gas passes. This fluid tube 22 passes gas tightly through the upper lid 23 of the cathode tank 10 so that it protrudes therefrom to be connected to a corrosion resistant main tube 24 which extends horizontally over the cathode tank 10. The main tube 24 is connected at one end to a saline supply tube 25. the upper side of the main pipe 24 is connected to a vertical pipe 26, the upper end of which is connected to an outlet pipe 27 for chlorine gas. The upper tube 26 is provided with a liquid level indicator (not shown). The upper lid 23 of the cathode tank 10 is connected to a hydrogen gas outlet tube 28, and one side wall 29 of the cathode tank 10 is provided with an outlet tube 30 for a caustic soda solution at a point nearly as high as the cap 6 for the unit cell 1.

Saltvand som er mættet med almindeligt salt bliver tilført til hovedrøret 24 gennem indløbsrøret 25 og vedvarende indført i hver celleenhed 1 gennem fluidumrøret 22. Strømningshastigheden for saltvandet styres ved aflæsninger på væsken!veauindikatoren. Saltvandet bliver elektrolyseret ved påføring af en rigtig størrelse af spænding tværs over anoden og katoden. Chlorgas, som udvikles omkring anodepladerne 2, bobler op gennem saltvandet, som er indeholdt i cellen 1, fluidum-røret 22, hovedrøret 24 og overrøret 26, og bliver ledt ud gennem udløbsrøret 27 ind i en chlorgasbeholder (ikke vist). På den anden side bliver en elektrolytisk fremstillet kaustisk sodaopløsning og hydrogengas, som er samlet i katodetanken, fjernet gennem udløbsrørene 30 og 28 ind i en kaustisk sodaopløsningstank og brintgas-samlekasse (ikke vist) respektivt.Salt water that is saturated with common salt is supplied to the main tube 24 through the inlet tube 25 and continuously introduced into each cell unit 1 through the fluid tube 22. The flow rate of the saline is controlled by readings on the fluid level indicator. The saline is electrolyzed by applying a proper amount of voltage across the anode and cathode. Chlorine gas, which develops around the anode plates 2, bubbles up through the salt water contained in the cell 1, the fluid tube 22, the main tube 24 and the tube 26, and is discharged through the outlet tube 27 into a chlorine gas container (not shown). On the other hand, an electrolytically prepared caustic soda solution and hydrogen gas collected in the cathode tank are removed through the outlet pipes 30 and 28 into a caustic soda solution tank and hydrogen gas collection box (not shown), respectively.
Den ovenforoævnte elektrolytiske celle kan ændres til en sådan type, hvori begge endesider af Jernmaskekatoderammen 4 erstattes af en Jernplade belagt med et korrosionsbestandigt materiale, for at forhindres i at benyttes som katode.The above-mentioned electrolytic cell can be changed to such a type in which both end sides of the Iron Mask cathode frame 4 are replaced by an Iron plate coated with a corrosion resistant material to prevent its use as a cathode.
ifølge yderligere en anden ændring kan et enkelt hovedrør til samtidig at lede saltvand og chlorgas erstattes af to hovedrør til separat at lede disse materialer.According to yet another change, a single main pipe for simultaneously conducting saline and chlorine gas can be replaced by two main pipes for separately conducting these materials.
Den elektrolytiske celle kan yderligere ændres ved at vende det lodrette arrangement af enhedscellerne og anodesamleskinnen i den i fig.The electrolytic cell can be further altered by reversing the vertical arrangement of the unit cells and the anode collector rail in the embodiment shown in FIG.
1 viste udførelsesform nemlig ved at anbringe anodesamleskinnen vandret over katodetanken og ophænge hvert sæt af anodeplader derfra gennem det øverste låg 23. Den sidstnævnte ændring er ikke vist på tegningen.1, namely by placing the anode collector rail horizontally over the cathode tank and suspending each set of anode plates therefrom through the upper lid 23. The latter change is not shown in the drawing.
Ved den tidligere kendte multiple elektrolytiske celle af typen med lodret skillevæg bliver den multiple anode og den multiple katode respektivt bygget sammen til et legeme, som beskrevet i indledningen til denne beskrivelse. Hvis en del af anode og katodesystemet beskadiges, skal det beskadigede legeme fjernes fra anodetanken for at erstattes med et separat tilvejebragt strømningsfattigt legeme. Denne erstatning tager lang tid og arbejde. Yderligere ledsages reparationen af det ødelagte legeme af betragtelige vanskeligheder som følge af legemets komplicerede form. Hvor et ekstra legeme er anbragt i anodetanken, er det meget vanskeligt at opretholde et ensartet mellemrum mellem Jernmaskekatoderammen og anodepladerne overalt i cellen.In the prior art multiple partition type electrolytic cell of the vertical partition, the multiple anode and multiple cathode are respectively constructed together into a body, as described in the introduction to this specification. If part of the anode and cathode system is damaged, the damaged body must be removed from the anode tank to be replaced with a separately provided flow-poor body. This replacement takes a long time and work. Furthermore, the repair of the damaged body is accompanied by considerable difficulties due to the complex shape of the body. Where an extra body is placed in the anode tank, it is very difficult to maintain a uniform gap between the iron mesh cathode frame and the anode plates throughout the cell.
143290 6 I modsætning hertil har den multiple elektrolytiske celle ifølge opfindelsen et stort antal enhedsceller af simpel konstruktion som separat er anbragt i katodetanken. Hvor derfor en hvilken som helst af enhedscellerne bliver beskadiget, er det kim nødvendigt at åbne katodetanken og fjerne den beskadigede celle alene for erstatning med en reservecelle, og således hurtigt afslutte genmonteringen.In contrast, the multiple electrolytic cell according to the invention has a large number of simple construction unit cells which are separately located in the cathode tank. Therefore, where any of the unit cells are damaged, it is necessary to open the cathode tank and remove the damaged cell solely for replacement by a spare cell, thus quickly completing the reassembly.
Som vist i fig. 1, kan anodepladen og j ernmaskekatoderammen let holdes med et fast mellemrum, hvilket formindsker tiden og arbejdet som kræves ved reparation af cellen. Pålidelig vedligeholdelse af et foreskrevet smalt mellemrum mellem anoden og katodedelene muliggør, at en vandig opløsning af kaustisk soda bliver elektrolytisk fremstillet mere effektivt ved den lavere cellespænding til en fore-skreven koncentration end i den tidligere kendte multiple celle.As shown in FIG. 1, the anode plate and the catheter catheter frame can be easily held at a fixed interval, reducing the time and work required in repairing the cell. Reliable maintenance of a prescribed narrow gap between the anode and cathode portions allows an aqueous solution of caustic soda to be electrolytically prepared more efficiently at the lower cell voltage to a prescribed concentration than in the previously known multiple cell.
Por at illustrere fordelene ifølge opfindelsen kan det nævnes at erstatning af anode eller katodelegemet ved den tidligere kendte multiple elektrolytiske celle tager i det mindste 5 timer, hvorimod erstatning af en enhedscelle indeholdt i en katodetank med den multiple ifølge opfindelsen kun tager omkring en halv time.To illustrate the advantages of the invention, it can be mentioned that replacement of the anode or cathode body by the prior art multiple electrolytic cell takes at least 5 hours, whereas replacement of a unit cell contained in a cathode tank with the multiple according to the invention only takes about half an hour.
For yderligere belysning af fordelene ifølge opfindelsen kan det nævnes, at en tidligere kendt multipel celle, hvori anode og katodedelene havde en afstand med et middelmellemrum på omkring 10 mm, krævede en middelcellespænding, som var mere end 4,0 volt, for fremstilling af en vandig opløsning af kaustisk soda med 11 % koncentration, hvorimod det med en multipel celle ifølge opfindelsen, hvori anode og katodedelene var anbragt f.eks. ved et interval på nøjagtig 6 mm kun krævede en middelcellespænding som var mindre end 3,8 volt for nævnte fremstilling. I disse sammenlignede tilfælde p var strømtætheden på omkring 25 A/dm , og elektrolytbadets temperatur var omkring 90° C.To further elucidate the advantages of the invention, it may be mentioned that a previously known multiple cell in which the anode and the cathode portions had a spacing of about 10 mm average spacing required an average cell voltage of more than 4.0 volts to produce a aqueous solution of caustic soda with 11% concentration, whereas with a multiple cell according to the invention in which the anode and the cathode parts were placed e.g. at a range of exactly 6 mm, only a mean cell voltage less than 3.8 volts was required for said preparation. In these compared cases p, the current density was about 25 A / dm and the temperature of the electrolyte bath was about 90 ° C.
For den begyndende operation af den multiple celle ifølge opfindelsen er det ønsket, at der tilføres kraft, når katodetanken er helt fyldt med saltvand, og væskeniveauet nedsættes gradvis med voksende rumfang af brintgas, som udvikles ved elektrolyse, for at forhindre eksplosion af blandingen af brint og ilt i katodetanken. Udløbsrøret 30 for den kaustiske sodaopløsning bør være fastgjort til sidevæggen 29 i katodetanken 10 på et sådant sted, at væskeniveauet deri opretholdes i det væsentlige lige så højt som toppen af enhedscellen ved normal operation. Det er også nødvendigt, at enhedscellen altid bli-For the initial operation of the multiple cell of the invention, it is desired that power be applied when the cathode tank is completely filled with saline and the liquid level is gradually reduced with increasing volume of hydrogen gas which is developed by electrolysis to prevent explosion of the hydrogen mixture. and oxygen in the cathode tank. The caustic soda solution outlet tube 30 should be attached to the side wall 29 of the cathode tank 10 in such a way that the liquid level therein is maintained substantially as high as the top of the unit cell during normal operation. It is also necessary that the unit cell always be-
