炭素質材料からなる電極の新規電極構成および電気浸透
脱水方法に関する。Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention is useful for promoting dewatering by applying direct current between opposing electrodes while sandwiching and squeezing a material to be dehydrated, such as sewage sludge. The present invention relates to a new electrode structure of an electrode made of a carbonaceous material and an electroosmotic dehydration method that enables the implementation of this under advantageous conditions.
(従来の技術)

ルタープレス形式脱水装置により実施する場合の操作過
程の主要段階を示す。(Prior Art) Figures 1 (a), (b), and (c) show the main steps of the operating process when electroosmotic dehydration is carried out using a filter press type dehydrator.

液を濾液出口(e)から機外に排出する。In Figure 1 (a), a pair of filter plates (a) of a filter press are shown.
) (a) Filter cloth 0)) (b) is sandwiched and closed with a compressed membrane (C), and sludge, which is the material to be dehydrated, is forced into the filter cloth from the raw solution inlet (d) using a raw solution pump, The dehydrated liquid that has passed through the filter cloth is discharged to the outside of the machine from the filtrate outlet (e).

開き濾布を引下して脱水ケーキ(g)を機外に取出す。In FIG. 1(B), the squeeze membrane on the outside of the filter cloth is expanded by the squeeze pressure introduced behind it, pressurizes the primary dewatered sludge in the front, and squeezes out more water from the solidified sludge cake. In the latter stage of this pressing dehydration, direct current is applied to the material to be dehydrated through the filter cloth between the electrodes (f) on the outside of the filter cloth, and additional dehydration is performed by the electrode osmosis action to increase the dehydration rate. In FIG. 1 (c), the filter plate is opened, the filter cloth is pulled down, and the dehydrated cake (g) is taken out of the machine.
電気浸透脱水はベルトプレス装置等で実施することも可
能である(例えば特開昭60−14208、特開昭62
−61608号参照)。Electroosmotic dehydration can also be carried out using a belt press device, etc.
-61608).
このように、下水汚泥等の難脱水性の有機質を多く含む
汚泥を圧搾脱水する過程で汚泥中に直流電流を通ずると
、単に圧搾しただけでは脱水できない汚泥中の水分も電
気浸透作用により陰極側に吸引されて外部に移動し脱水
が促進され、圧搾圧力のみによる脱水に較べて脱水ケー
キの含水率を著しく低下させることができる。In this way, when a direct current is passed through the sludge in the process of compressing and dewatering sludge that contains a large amount of organic matter that is difficult to dewater, such as sewage sludge, water in the sludge that cannot be dehydrated simply by pressing is transferred to the cathode side by electroosmosis. The water content of the dehydrated cake can be significantly lowered compared to dehydration using only squeezing pressure.
例えば、凝集、水切りにより予備凝縮した下水汚脱をフ
ィルタープレスに供給して3kgf/c111の圧搾圧
力で約20分間脱水処理を行うと、脱水ケーキの含水率
は80〜85%となりこれ以上の圧力、時間をかけても
脱水ケーキ含水率の低下にさほどの効果はない。これに
対し脱水の途中で40V程度の直流電圧を印加して約1
5分間通電を行うと、脱水ケーキの含水率は50%程度
にまで低下し、脱水ケーキの体積は172以下に減少す
る。For example, if pre-condensed sewage condensation through coagulation and draining is supplied to a filter press and dehydrated for about 20 minutes at a compression pressure of 3 kgf/c111, the water content of the dehydrated cake will be 80-85%, and if the pressure is higher than this, the moisture content of the dehydrated cake will be 80-85%. However, even if it takes a long time, there is no significant effect on reducing the moisture content of the dehydrated cake. On the other hand, during dehydration, a DC voltage of about 40V is applied to
When electricity is applied for 5 minutes, the moisture content of the dehydrated cake decreases to about 50%, and the volume of the dehydrated cake decreases to 172 or less.
汚泥の導電性が低くて電気浸透脱水の適用が困難となる
場合には、例えば予OI濃縮した汚泥中に食塩、塩化カ
ルシウム、硫酸ソーダ、硝酸ナトリウム等の無機塩を添
加し汚泥の電気伝導度を向上させれば処理できるので、
汚泥の性状面からする制約は殆ど受けない。If the electrical conductivity of the sludge is low and it is difficult to apply electroosmotic dewatering, for example, inorganic salts such as common salt, calcium chloride, sodium sulfate, and sodium nitrate may be added to the pre-OI concentrated sludge to increase the electrical conductivity of the sludge. It can be processed by improving the
There are almost no restrictions due to the properties of sludge.
ところで電気浸透脱水に使用する電極は各種の機械的、
電気的、電気化学的な要求特性を充足する必要があって
、従来使用可能な電極としては金属板、炭素焼結板等が
あるが、これは寿命の点では未だ満足なものではない。By the way, the electrodes used for electroosmotic dehydration are of various mechanical,
It is necessary to satisfy required electrical and electrochemical characteristics, and conventionally usable electrodes include metal plates and carbon sintered plates, but these are still unsatisfactory in terms of life.

炭素質の物理的脱落が多いため、やはり寿命が充分でな
い。For example, metal plate electrodes made of stainless steel, nickel steel, etc. are ionized by DC current, elute and wear out, and have a short lifespan (in particular, chromium elution poses a problem of secondary pollution.Also, titanium alloys are plated with platinum). The metal electrode used as an anode has low current consumption and good current carrying performance, but it is very expensive and the platinum peels off when reverse polarity current is applied, so it cannot be used. Although the degree of electrochemical corrosion is lower than that of metal plate electrodes such as stainless steel and nickel steel, it still reacts electrochemically with water according to the following reaction formula, c+2L O−+COt +4H” +4 e However, when the binder coke is subjected to oxidative consumption due to oxygen during the generation stage, the binder coke portion is selectively electrolytically eroded, resulting in many physical drop-offs of carbonaceous material, so that the life is still insufficient.
