Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrolysis apparatus for the production of chlorine from aqueous alkali halide solution, in which the anode and cathode compartments are separated from one another by a partition, for example a diaphragm or an ion exchange membrane.
- a partition for example a diaphragm or an ion exchange membrane.
- DT-OS 25 38 414 an electrolysis cell is described which is operable as a single element, but is combined into a multiple electrolysis cell in a suitable device.
- One element of this electrolyser is characterized in that the housing consists of two half-shells, the electrodes are connected to the half-shells by means of electrically conductive bolts, the bolts projecting through the wall of the half-shells and on their protruding end face current leads and devices for compressing the current leads, Half-shells, electrodes and partition lie on and the partition between electrically insulating spacers, which are arranged in the extension of the bolts on the electrolytically active side of the electrodes and is clamped between the edges of the half-shells by means of sealing elements.
- the housings have openings through which the current leads are led to the electrodes, which is disadvantageous since leaks can occur at these bushings, which can only be eliminated by decommissioning the entire electrolyser and replacing the leaky element.
- Another disadvantage is that elements that are built for economic reasons using thin steel and titanium sheets are bulged by the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid column in the cell and are therefore difficult to remove from the electrolyzer in the liquid-filled state the pressing device are to be removed.
- a further disadvantage of the existing multiple electrolysis cells is that considerable amounts of current as leakage or leakage currents can flow off both through the supply lines for the electrolyte solutions and through the discharge lines for the products. This can lead to
- the tasks are accomplished by electrolysis Apparatus for the production of chlorine from an aqueous alkali halide solution, which has at least one electrolysis cell, the anode and cathode of which are separated from one another by a partition in a housing made of two half-shells, the housing being provided with devices for supplying the electrolysis starting materials and for removing the electrolysis products and the partition is clamped between the edges of the half-shells by means of sealing elements and is held between power transmission elements made of electrically non-conductive material and extending in each case up to the electrodes and which is characterized in that the electrodes are attached via spacers which are fastened to the inside of the half-shells are, and are mechanically and electrically connected via their edges to the half-shells.
- the half-shells of the electrolysis cells can be provided with stiffeners and at least one of the half-shells of an electrolysis cell can have electrically conductive force transmission elements on the outside and in an extension of the force transmission elements and spacers.
- at least one tube of electrically non-conductive material running in the vertical direction and passing through the half-shells near the edge can be arranged in the interior of the half-shells to supply the electrolysis starting materials and / or to remove the electrolysis products.
- the cathodes can consist of iron, cobalt, nickel or chromium or one of their alloys and the anodes can consist of titanium, niobium or tantalum or an alloy of these metals or of a metal or oxide ceramic material.
- the anodes are provided with an electrically conductive, catalytically active coating which contains metals or compounds from the group of platinum metals. Due to the shape of the electrodes, which are made of perforated material such as perforated sheets, expanded metal, wickerwork or constructions made of thin round rods, and their arrangement in the electrolysis cell can be used in the Electrolysis gases easily enter the space behind the electrodes. This gas discharge from the electrode gap leads to a reduction in the gas bubble resistance between the electrodes and thus a reduction in the cell voltage.
- the half-shells on the cathode side can be made of iron or iron alloys. If the cathode and the cathode-side half-shell are to be welded to one another, they preferably consist of the same material, preferably steel.
- the anode-side half-shell must consist of a chlorine-resistant material such as titanium, niobium or tantalum, or an alloy of these metals, or of a metal or oxide ceramic material. If the half-shell and anode are to be connected to one another by welding, the same material, preferably titanium, is selected for both parts.
- Half-shell and electrodes can also be firmly connected to each other by screwing. In this case, half-shells and electrodes can be made of different materials.
- the diaphragms or ion exchange membranes customary in alkali metal chloride electrolysis come into consideration as the partition.
- Membranes with terminal sulfonamide groups (-S0 3 NHR) are also used as ion exchange groups.
- the equivalent weights of such ion exchangers are between 800 and 1600, preferably between 1100 and 1500.
- the ion exchange membrane is usually reinforced with a support fabric made of polytetrafluoroethylene.
- these ion exchange membranes prevent diaphragms mix hydrogen and chlorine, but because of their selective permeability they allow the passage of alkali metal ions into the cathode compartment. They largely prevent the transition of halide into the cathode compartment and the passage of hydroxyl ions into the anode compartment. This results in a practically salt-free lye, whereas the salt must first be removed from the catholyte of the diaphragm cells in a complex process.
- the ion exchange membranes represent dimensionally stable partition walls which are also more resistant to the aggressive media of alkali halide electrolysis and therefore have a longer service life than asbestos diaphragms.
- the electrolysis apparatus can consist of an electrolysis cell, but also of a large number of cells connected in series, the electrical contact between adjacent cells taking place directly via the contacting half-shells of adjacent electrolysis cells or via the electrically conductive force transmission elements.
- the housing of an electrolytic cell consists of an anode-side and a cathode-side half-shell.
- the anode-side half-shell 1 is formed from sheet metal and has a loose flange 2 while the half-shell of the cathode side consists of a wall 9 which is connected to a fixed flange 10.
- an integral flange or at the cathode-side half-shell a loose flange can also be used for the anode-side half-shell '.
- the partition 7 is clamped between the sealing elements 12.
- the electrodes 4 and 8 are firmly connected to the half-shells 1 and 9 via the spacers (for example bolts) 5.
- the electrolysis current is supplied to the anode and cathode either directly by contact with the half-shell wall of the adjacent electrolytic cell or by a force transmission element (for example bolts) 3 which is firmly connected to the half-shell 1 for example by screws 11.
- the disks 6 are used for power transmission for the power supply.
- the electrode spacing and the distance between the electrodes and the partition can be adjusted by the choice of the pane thickness. To stiffen the half-shells, they are provided with beads 13 a).
- stiffeners 13 a and 13 b Two versions of these stiffeners 13 a and 13 b are shown in Figures 2, 3, 4 and 6. The same or different stiffeners are also used in the cathode-side half-shell.
- FIG. 4 also shows a discharge pipe 14 for the electrolyte solutions in connection with a bead 13 b.
- the pipe is held with a bracket 18.
- Figure 5 shows the supply of the electrolyte to the cell via the pipe socket 15, which is firmly connected to the half-shell.
- the arrangement is also valid for the fixed flange half shell 9.
- the derivation of the electrolyte is shown in FIG.
- the long tube 14 made of insulating material leads the electrolyte solution and the electrolysis gases out of the cell and reduces leakage currents due to the length of the tube part located inside the cell. It is through pushed the pipe socket 16 into the cell.
- the transition piece 17 enables the transition to a subsequent hose line (not shown).
- the pipe connection shown in FIG. 6 can of course also be used in this form for the supply of the electrolytes.
- the anode and cathode of adjacent cells can be connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via force transmission elements 3 made of electrically conductive material.
- the arrangement thus represents a bipolar electrolysis apparatus.
- the series connection of such cells results in high voltages and relatively low currents.
- the series connection has the advantage of better utilization of the capacity of the rectifier elements, lower copper consumption and lower voltage losses in the busbars.
