Definitions

  • the invention does not relate to an electrolysis plate consisting of an outer conductive frame, in particular made of a fiber-reinforced cresol resin, one in it stored, electrically conductive, bipolar, preferably slotted on both sides Graphite plate, the plastic aprons in the area of the electrolyte supply Has positive guidance for the electrolyte solutions.
  • the invention further relates to Electrolysers built on the basis of the electrolysis plate mentioned.
  • electrolysers for example hydrochloric acid electrolyzers
  • electrolysis plates in the form of frame elements which carry electrically conductive, bipolar graphite plates as an anode / cathode.
  • the frame elements are generally arranged in blocks of typically 32 or 38 plates and thereby form a unit as an electrolyzer with 31 or 37 electrolysis cells for the electrolysis of, for example, hydrochloric acid to chlorine gas and hydrogen gas, which are operated at current densities of up to 4,800 A / m 2 .
  • the hydrochloric acid is fed through the frame from the passages in the lower area of the frame elements via specially arranged holes on the anolyte or catholyte side from below into the anolyte or catholyte space and in the upper area of the frame elements through outlet holes in the upper passages Frame elements derived together with the gases generated.
  • Known electrolysis elements are, depending on the current density, from 130 1 / h to 180 1 / h Anolyte and catholyte acid supplied.
  • the 60 - 80 ° C hot hydrochloric acid meets that Diaphragm separating anolyte space from catholyte space and redistributes itself Redirection e.g. on the diaphragm via the slots in the graphite or the channel randomly between frame and graphite plate.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an electrolysis element that has the disadvantages avoids the known construction and a comparable longer service life having.
  • the object is achieved in that in an electrolysis element the anolyte and catholyte side of the electrolysis element by attaching an inert film, in particular made of polyvinyl difluoride or a polyfluorocarbon to protect the diaphragm or membrane against chemical, thermal and mechanical corrosion by the from the in Electrolytic element existing holes impinging anolyte and catholyte beam is protected.
  • an inert film in particular made of polyvinyl difluoride or a polyfluorocarbon to protect the diaphragm or membrane against chemical, thermal and mechanical corrosion by the from the in Electrolytic element existing holes impinging anolyte and catholyte beam is protected.
