Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements in or relating to multi-electrolytic cells and particularly to multi-electrolytic cells of the kind adaptable for the production, of for example, chlorine, a hypochlorite or a chlorate from aqueous solutions of a chloride of an alkali metal for example sodium chloride and comprising a plurality of unit electrolytic cells.
  • Multi-electrolytic cells arev known, for instance, wherein the anode of one unit cell is separated from the cathode of an adjacent unit cell by a partition of non-conducting inert material, for example concrete, and wherein said anode and said cathode are connected electrically by electro-conducting connections passing through said partition.
  • these cells may be so constructed, for instance, that each unit cell has a conventional type of asbestos diaphragm placed between its anode and cathode to prevent the products formed at the anode and cathode from mixing and so to permit these products to be collected.
  • the object of the present invention is to employ an electro-conducting chemically inert partition in the form of titanium metal sheet as a chemically inert partition which separates the anode of one unit electrolytic cell from the cathode of an adjacent unit electrolytic cell.
  • titanium metal sheet includes a metal sheet of a titanium alloy consisting essentially of titanium.
  • each unit cell has a diaphragm, for instance a conventional type of asbestos diaphragm, between its anode and cathode to permit for instance caustic sodaand chlorine to be collected.
  • the diaphragm between the anode and the cathode of each unit cell may comprise a cationic exchange resin.
  • the anode in each unit cell is of graphite and at least a portion of that face of the titanium metal sheet which faces the anode has a layer of a noble metal of the platinum group.
  • a noble metal of the platinum group is meant ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium or platinum, or an alloy of two or more of such metals (hereinafter called generically a platinum metal).
  • the anode in each unit cell is of graphite treated to be impermeable to chlorine and at least a portion of that face of the titanium metal sheet which faces the anode has a layer of a metal of high electrical conductivity
  • the anode in each unit cell is a layer of a platinum metal which is on one side of the titanium metal sheet and the cathode is that opposed side of the next titanium metal sheet which is free from a layer of a platinum metal.
  • the layer of a platinum metal can be a film or surface coating of a platinum metal secured or deposited on one side of the titanium metal sheet in any convenient manner.
  • the coating of a platinum metal may be constituted, if desired, by a thin sheet or foil which is welded to the titanium metal sheet.
  • other methods may likewise be utilised for applying the coating of the platinum metal to the titanium metal sheet, for example, roll-bonding, cathode sputtering, vacuum deposition, metal spraying, rolling a platinum metal powder into the surface of the titanium metal sheet and coating of a titanium metal sheet with a platinum-bearing preparation and subsequently heating as for example in the manner practised in the ceramic industry.
  • each unit cell may, if desired, be provided with a diaphragm and means for recycling anolyte and/ or catholyte through the respective compartments of each unit cell may also be provided.

  • the titanium sheet can be compressed firmly, against for instance a graphite plate and so give good electrical contact between the anode of one unit cell and the cathode of an adtrical contact in the multi-electrolytic cell of the inven-' tion without this cell being under a high degree of com: pression.

  • 5 are highly compressed portions of the flexible sheets 4 positioned between the adjacent edges of the graphite anodes 1 and the clamping plates 3.
  • the thickness of the flexible sheets 4 is such that when the multi-electrolytic cell is held together under a suitable degree of of compression the graphite anodes 1 are held firmly against the titanium plates 2.
  • 6 are conventional asbestos diaphragms and these are supported on metal gauze screens 7 which are set in metal plates 8.
  • Thin layers 9 of suitable corrosion resistant material are bonded by conventional means to these faces of the metal plates 8 which face towards the graphite anodes 1.
  • the graphite anodes 1 are maintained at a suitably small distance from the asbestos diaphragm 6 by frames 10 of corrosion resistant materials. Additional frames 11 of corrosion resistant material separate the metal plates 8 from the adjacent titanium plates 2 of adjacent unit electrolytic cells. Frames 11 differ from frames 10 in their thickness and in that they are reversed laterally with respect to frames 10,
  • the titanium plates 2 are provided with a series of embossed nipples 12 which are disposed regularly over those portions of the titanium plates 2 which face the metal gauze screens 7.
  • embossed nipples 12 protrude towards the metal gauze screens 7 for such a distance that when the multi-electrolytic cell is held together under a suitable degree of compression the nipples 12 are in sufiiciently close contact with the metal gauze screens 7 that there is negligible resistance to the flow of electrical current between the metal gauze screens 7 and the adjacent faces of the titanium plates 2. Should it be necessary this resistance can be reduced by welding together the metal gauze screens 7 and the titanium plates 2. The metal gauze screens 7 and the adjacent faces of the titanium plates 2 form together the cathodes of the multi-electrolytic cell.
  • the titanium plates 2, the clamping plates 3, the flexible sheets 4, the frames 10, the metal plates 8 and the frames 11 are each provided with four corresponding apertures 13, 14, 15 and 16 to form ducts 17, 18, 19 and 20 respectively.
  • the apertures 13, 14, 15 and 16 in the titanium plates 2 and the metal plates 8 are enlarged to allow the insertion of bushes 21 of corrosio resistant and electrically insulating material. These bushes 21 are sealed to the titanium plates 2 and the metal plates 8' by a suitable adhesive composition (not shown).
  • the frames 10 are provided with rectangular apertures 22 of such dimensions as will conform closely to the dimensions of the graphite anodes 1 and the asbestos diaphragms 6. These aperture are connected to the diagonally opposite apertures 13 and 14 by channels 24 and 25 respectively.
  • Frames 11 have rectangular apertures 23 of similar dimensions to apertures 22 in frames 10. Apertu-res 23 are connected to the diagonally opposite apertures 15 and 16 respectively by channels 26 and 27.
  • the components for a suitable number of unit electrolytic cells are positioned as aforementioned and are held together under a suitable degree of compression by conventional means.
  • the seals between adjacent components are effected by conventional methods as for example by intervening films of suitable adhesive materials or by thin layers of flexible jointing compounds (not shown).

The sodium chloride solution percolates through the asbestos diaphragm 6 into the cathode compartment 23 attaining a controlled level. If the sodium chloride solution is controlled at a level 32 there will be partial flooding of the duct 19. The solution then leaves the multi-electrolytic cell by the channels 27 and the duct 20 through suitable external connections (not shown). Should the solutionbe controlled at a level 33 there is no flooding of the duct 19.
  • If desired means can be provided for the return of the anolyte from duct 17 to duct 18 and/or of the catholyte from duct 19 to duct 20 and for the circulation of the anolyte and catholyte respectively through the apertures 22 and the apertures 23.

  • the layers 34 may either be a platinum metal or a less noble metal, for example copper. If the layers 34 are of a less noble metal this metal may be protected from corrosion by impregnating those parts of the graphite anode 1 adjacent to the metal layer 34 with an inert material so as to render said parts of the graphite anode 1 completely impervious to the gases or liquids contained in the multi-electrolytic cell. If the layers 34 are a noble metal such as platinum no such protection is necessary.
