2. Description of the Related Art Chlorine, caustic soda and the like are produced by electrolyzing a saline solution. Usually, salt contains bromide such as sodium bromide and magnesium bromide as impurities, so that a considerable amount of bromine ion is present in the salt solution. If such a saline solution is subjected to electrolytic treatment as it is, a large amount of bromine will be contained in the obtained chlorine. Therefore, in order to produce high-purity chlorine, it is necessary to purify a saline solution supplied to the electrolytic cell or to purify the obtained chlorine to remove bromine ions, bromine, and the like.

This method is an excellent method in that the removal rate of bromine is high. However, since washing is carried out using a large amount of washing water, chlorine is dissolved together with bromine, and this is useful when other manufacturing equipment or the like capable of utilizing or consuming water containing the chlorine and bromine is provided. When such a facility is not provided, not only an additional facility such as a wastewater treatment facility is required, but also the yield of chlorine is low, and the method is not always satisfactory.

Normally, salt contains magnesium compounds, calcium compounds, sulfates, and the like as impurities. Therefore, the salt solution to be supplied to the electrolytic cell is subjected to a pretreatment to remove these impurities. During this pretreatment, the surplus hypochlorite ion after being consumed by the oxidation reaction of the above formula (1) has an adverse effect. Excessive hypochlorite ion is treated by oxidation according to the above formula (3), but is preferably treated by adding a reducing agent such as sodium thiosulfate and neutralizing. By adding a reducing agent such as sodium thiosulfate, chlorine generated by the oxidation reaction of the above formula (3) can be simultaneously treated.

In the present invention, bromine generated by so-called bubbling, which is obtained by oxidizing bromine ions in a saline solution to bromine and then blowing an inert gas such as air or nitrogen which does not react with the saline solution into the saline solution. Is discharged out of the system and removed. This is because the oxidation reaction of the above formula (1) is an equilibrium reaction, and the reaction can be promoted by discharging bromine of the production system out of the system.

It is preferable to use about 0.1 to 10 m 3 / min of inert gas per 1 m 3 of the saline solution as the ratio of the amount of the saline solution to the amount of the inert gas. If the amount of air or inert gas is too small, not only will the bromine generated by the oxidation reaction be discharged and removed from the system poorly, but also, when air or the like is blown into the saline solution by bubbling, the salt is introduced into the gas conduit. Precipitates and clogs the conduit, causing a significant decrease in gas flow. Conversely, if the amount is too large, the bromine and the salt solution will also be sprayed and lost. A method in which a saline solution and air are brought into countercurrent contact using a scrubber or the like instead of bubbling with air or the like may be used.

In addition, a supersaturated saline solution is formed by evaporation of water, and sodium chloride is precipitated. The bromine removed and discharged outside the system according to the present invention is preferably treated using caustic soda or the like.

Industrial salt is usually 1 as bromine ion.
It contains about 00 to 200 mg / kg of a bromine compound. Therefore, the concentration of the saline solution supplied to the electrolytic cell is usually 25
Considering that the amount is about% by weight, the saline solution contains about 25 to 50 mg / liter of bromine ions. By performing oxidation, bubbling, and the like by the above method, the bromine ion can be reduced to less than 10 mg / liter. The removal rate is 70% or more. The lower limit of the bromine ion concentration in the saline solution supplied to the electrolytic cell is preferably as low as close to 0.
If performed for more than an hour, the lower limit is usually about 0.5 mg / liter.

Normally, when chlorine is produced from a saline solution by an electrolysis method, the amount of salt consumed in the electrolytic cell when it is passed once through the electrolytic cell is about 30 to 40% by weight of the supplied amount, and the balance is the balance. It is circulated and reused as a return salt solution. Therefore, in the industrial electrolysis method, the salt corresponding to the amount of the salt consumed in the electrolytic cell is newly dissolved and added to the system.
In consideration of such a step, a preferred method of application of the present invention is a method of oxidizing bromine ions and removing bromine by bubbling a saline solution prepared by newly dissolving salt. Incidentally, even when the above-described oxidation of bromine ions and the removal of bromine by bubbling are applied only to the return saline solution system, the amount of bromine ions in the saline solution can be reduced. However, in this case, since about 3000 mg / liter of chlorine is present in the saline solution discharged from the electrolytic cell, chlorine is removed together with bromine, which is not economical.
