Abstract
An apparatus for producing hypochlorous acid water according to the present invention comprises: an electrode unit for electrolyzing an aqueous solution containing chlorine ions; And a control unit for changing an electric polarity of the electrode unit while the aqueous solution is being electrolyzed.
Description
The present invention relates to an apparatus for generating hypochlorous acid water using electrolysis.
Although many chemical agents with excellent sterilizing power have appeared in the sanitary field, the higher the sterilizing power and the washing power, the more toxic the problem is.
Therefore, various sanitizing and washing processes require a harmless means in place of chemical agents.
Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2003-0044790 discloses an apparatus for producing a sterilized hypochlorous acid solution that does not generate chlorine gas.
An object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for producing hypochlorous acid which can be used for a long time.
It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are not intended to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Other objects, which will be apparent to those skilled in the art, It will be possible.
An apparatus for producing hypochlorous acid water according to the present invention comprises: an electrode unit for electrolyzing an aqueous solution containing chlorine ions; And a control unit for changing an electric polarity of the electrode unit while the aqueous solution is being electrolyzed.
In the hypochlorous acid water producing apparatus of the present invention, the electric polarity of the electrode portion for electrolyzing the aqueous solution containing chlorine ions may be changed.
The byproducts generated in the electrolysis process are difficult to stay on a specific electrode due to the change of electric polarity. Therefore, the amount of byproducts deposited on a specific electrode due to electrolysis can be reduced, so that each electrode can be used for a long time.
Even if byproducts are deposited on each electrode, it is only washable. Therefore, each electrode can be semi-permanently used theoretically through cleaning.
On the other hand, noise that contributes to shortening the lifetime of the electrode may be generated due to a voltage change that changes abruptly when the electric polarity changes. According to the present invention, the electrode unit may be turned off for a while while the electric polarity is changed, or a capacitor may be disposed at an input terminal of the electrode unit. The electrode can be used for a long period of time because the generation of noise can be suppressed by the operation of turning off the electrode part for a while and the charging / discharging / smoothing function of the capacitor.
In addition, since noises are excluded, highly reproducible electrolysis is possible.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The sizes and shapes of the components shown in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience. In addition, terms defined in consideration of the configuration and operation of the present invention may be changed according to the intention or custom of the user, the operator. Definitions of these terms should be based on the content of this specification.
1 is a schematic view showing an apparatus for producing hypochlorous acid water of the present invention.
Electrolytic water is an aqueous solution produced by adding electrolytic auxiliary such as sodium chloride or hydrochloric acid to tap water and electrolysis. The electrolytic water can be divided into electrolytic drinking water and electrolytic sterilized water.
Electrolytic drinking water is home alkaline electrolytic water mainly for drinking purposes. Household alkaline electrolytic water is produced by adding calcium glycerate to chlorine-free water such as activated carbon and electrolysis with weak electric current, and it is water for drinking and skin cleansing.
The electrolytic disinfecting water corresponds to the hypochlorous acid water of the present invention and is generated on the positive electrode side of the electrode when electrolysis is performed by adding sodium chloride or hydrochloric acid electrolyte to water.
Electrolysis sterilization water is intended for sterilization, strong acid electrolytic water, acidic electrolytic water and electrolytic sodium hypochlorite.
Strong acid electrolytic water is an acidic aqueous solution containing sodium hypochlorite as an active ingredient obtained by electrolysis of saline (NaCl concentration: 0.2% or less) in which sodium chloride is slightly added to raw water in a membrane type electrolytic cell. The effective components of strong acid electrolytic water are hypochlorous acid (HClO), hydrochloric acid (HCl), and chlorine (Cl 2 ), and the pH is 2.2 to 2.7. The effective chlorine concentration is 20 ~ 60mg / kg, colorless, chlorine odor and contains non-electrolytic salt.
The acidic electrolytic water is a non-acidic aqueous solution containing hypochlorous acid as a main active component obtained by electrolyzing diluted hydrochloric acid in a non-diaphragm type electrolytic cell to mix and dissolve all the electrolytes other than the hydrogen gas in the raw water. The effective component of the acidic electrolytic water is hypochlorous acid and the pH is 5.0 to 6.5. The effective chlorine concentration is 10-30 mg / kg, colorless, and usually odorless or slightly chlorine odor.
From the principle of producing acidic electrolytic water, chlorine is generated in the anode by electrolysis from diluted hydrochloric acid supplied from the seawater electrolytic cell, and hydrogen is generated in the cathode. The resulting chlorine is dissolved in water, and a high concentration of hypochlorous acid solution is continuously produced from the electrolytic bath. If diluted in the raw water, it becomes acidic electrolytic water with an effective chlorine concentration of 10 to 30 ppm. Hydrochloric acid in strong acid decreases by electrolysis, and hypochlorous acid which is acidic is produced. It becomes acidic with pH of 5.0 to 6.5 due to the buffering effect due to the hardness component in the raw water.
Sodium hypochlorite water refers to water containing sodium hypochlorite as an effective ingredient and includes water obtained by electrolysis of saline solution. It is a pale greenish yellow liquid with chlorine odor. The principle of electrolytic sodium hypochlorite production is as follows: electrolysis of 3% saline in a seawater electrolytic cell produces chlorine in the anode and hydrogen and caustic soda in the cathode. The resulting chlorine is dissolved in water and reacts with caustic soda to produce less than about 1% sodium hypochlorite.
As mentioned above, hypochlorous acid water can be formed by electrolysis. The apparatus for producing hypochlorous acid water according to the present invention for electrolysis may include the
