Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing ozone water by producing ozone water by electrolysis of water. More specifically, the present invention relates to an electrolytic ozone water production method capable of continuously producing ozone water over a long period of time and an apparatus therefor. It is about. Background art
- typical methods for producing ozone water include a gas dissolution method in which ozone gas is dissolved in water to produce ozone water, and oxygen generated on the anode side by electrolysis of water converted to ozone by an ozonation catalyst.
- the water electrolysis method is known to produce ozone water by dissolving it immediately in the water flowing to the anode side, and the water electrolysis method has recently attracted attention and is being put to practical use.
- the method for producing ozone water by such a water electrolysis method is described in JP-A-1-31092, JP-A-8-134677, JP-A-8-134678. Some have been proposed. The outline of these devices will be described with reference to a representative example shown in FIG.
- the solid polymer electrolyte membrane 5 (hereinafter simply referred to as “membrane” or “electrolyte membrane”) has an inner surface coated with a material having corrosion resistance to ozone (for example, fluororesin or glass).
- an anode-side casing 1 and a cathode-side casing 2 are defined in an anode chamber 6 and a cathode chamber 7.
- An anode electrode 3 provided with a noble metal (such as platinum) 16 having a catalytic function of generating ozone is pressed against and brought into contact with the surface of the electrolyte membrane 5 on the anode chamber 6 side.
- a cathode electrode 4 having a contact surface of noble metal (white gold, silver, etc.) 20 is similarly pressed against the other cathode chamber 7 side.
- inlets 8 and 9 and outlets 10 and 11 for raw water are formed, respectively.
- a DC voltage is applied between the electrodes 3 and 4 by the DC power supply 24 via the electrode rods 19 and 23.
- the portions of the two electrodes 3 and 4 that are in contact with the electrolyte membrane 5 are respectively described as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-134677. It is assumed that the wire mesh is made of a noble metal such as platinum.
- the lath nets 17 and 21 and titanium plates 18 and 22 formed on the back surface of titanium or the like having ozone-resistant properties are sequentially TO-bonded, and brazing, spot welding and other machinery are performed.
- the raw water intensifies while flowing through the flow path composed of the wire net and the lath net or the lath net and the lath net, and generates turbulence and eddy current. Dissolves in water. As a result of the dissolution occurring continuously and accumulating on the anode electrode surface of the electrolyte membrane, a high concentration of ozone water is obtained.
- a predetermined density is set at an initially set current density. If continuous operation is performed to produce zonal water, the performance of the electrolyte membrane will decrease (deterioration of the membrane), and the ozone concentration in the ozone water will decrease over time, so increase the current density to prevent this The formula was taken.
- the operation time is controlled by controlling the current value A (current density, the same applies hereinafter) so that the concentration X of the ozone water in the ozone water is maintained at a predetermined value Xs. With the passage of time, the current value increases, and at time t1, finally reaches the current upper limit value Ae allowed for the device.
- the electrode rods 19, 23 are inserted through the through holes 12, 13 formed in the anode-side casing 1 and the cathode-side casing 2, respectively.
- each end is connected to a fluid pressure cylinder device 14, 15, whereby the anode electrode 3 and the cathode electrode 4 can move forward and backward with respect to the electrolyte membrane 5, respectively. It differs from the device in Fig. 17.
- Fig. 18 When the concentration X of the ozone water reaches the predetermined lower limit value Xe after the current value A reaches the allowable upper limit value Ae, the operation of the device is stopped (energization and water flow stop), and As shown in FIG. 20, the fluid pressure cylinders 14 and 15 are actuated to separate the rain electrodes 3 and 4 from the electrolyte membrane 5 to release the pressing force on the electrolyte membrane 5. Then, the electrolyte membrane is regenerated by maintaining this state for a certain period of time, and after that, both electrodes 3 and 4 are again advanced toward the electrolyte membrane and pressed with a predetermined pressing force to supply electricity and water. And restart the device operation.
- the electrolyte membrane that has deteriorated with time during operation of the apparatus is opened by releasing the pressing force to regenerate the electrolyte membrane.
- the operation state is shown in the time chart in FIG. That is, similarly to the case of FIG. 18, the current value A increases with the lapse of the operation time t so that the concentration X of the ozone water is maintained at the predetermined concentration Xs.
- the current value A reaches the upper limit value Ae allowed for the device. Since the current value cannot be increased any more, at this point, the power supply and water supply to the device are stopped, and the operation of the device is stopped. That is, as shown in FIG.
- both electrodes 3 and 4 are separated from each other by separating them from the electrolyte membrane 5 and the operation of the apparatus is stopped.
- time t3 when time t3 is reached, the electrodes 3 and 4 are advanced again and pressed against the electrolyte membrane 5, and current supply and water flow are resumed to resume operation (time t3 ).
- time t4 when the current value A reaches the upper limit value Ae (time t4), the operation is similarly stopped, and after a predetermined time has elapsed (time t5), the operation is restarted. This operation is repeated, and when a predetermined concentration of ozone water cannot be obtained even after restarting the operation, the electrolyte membrane 5 is replaced at that point.
- the concentration X of the ozone water ozone water goes raises the predetermined value X s to become such a current value A It is.
- the current value A reaches the upper limit value Ae, which is the allowable limit value of the device (time t1)
- the surface pressure P of the electrode pressing the electrolyte membrane is increased from the initial P1 to the higher pressure P2. Enhance.
- the ozone generation rate increases, and the current value A required to maintain the predetermined concentration Xs of ozone water decreases, so the current value A decreases from its upper limit Ae to the normal operation value AO.
- the current value A required to maintain the predetermined ozone water concentration gradually increases again with the decrease in the performance of the electrolyte membrane, and the upper limit value A e again increases.
- Reaches time t6.
- the required current value A decreases again, and the current value reaches the upper limit value Ae again (time t7).
- the pressing force of the electrolyte membrane can be further increased, the same operation is repeated.
- the operation is continued with the current value at the upper limit Ae.
- the current value A can be reduced by increasing the pressing force P of the electrode against the electrolyte membrane, so that the operation continuation time of the device is dramatically increased. It becomes possible to increase to.
- the electrode pressing force P reached the upper limit, continuous operation over a long period of time was impossible in that the operation of the apparatus had to be stopped and the recovery of the membrane performance had to be waited.
- the present invention aims at achieving the long-term continuous operation which can be said to be the long-awaited desire in the electrolytic ozone water production system by further improving each of the above-mentioned improved systems. Disclosure of the invention
- the first method is to arrange an anode electrode with a catalytic function to generate ozone on one surface of the electrolyte membrane and a cathode electrode on the other surface, and at least one or both of the two electrodes can move forward and backward.

After that, the operation of changing the pressing force to return to the original pressing condition is performed, and the electrolyte membrane is regenerated while producing ozone water.
- the operation of changing the pressing force on the electrolyte membrane is
- the pressing force by the electrode can be changed in a direction of decreasing or increasing, or in a combination thereof.
- the pattern for changing the pressing force is a pattern of a pressure change such that a state in which the pressing force is reduced below a predetermined pressing force or a state in which the pressure is increased to a predetermined pressing force or more exists for a certain period of time or more.
- an operation of changing the current or the voltage is performed instead of the operation of changing the pressing force. Specifically, while the flow of water and the energization are continued, the operation of forcibly changing the current or voltage so as to return to the original value or a value close to it is performed. By doing so, the electrolyte membrane is regenerated while producing ozone water.
- the operation of forcibly changing the current or the voltage is performed by changing the current or voltage from a value at the start of the operation to a minimum value near or near 0 and a maximum allowable value of the device, and It is preferable to use a method in which the state of the maximum allowable value is held for a certain period of time and then changed to the original value or a value close to the original value.

First, in Fig. 2, at the start of operation, the main switch of the power supply unit 24 is turned on, and the control system is energized. Subsequently, the flow of raw material water is started from the water outlets 8, 9, and both electrodes are turned on.
- the pressing force of the electrodes 3 and 4 against the electrolyte membrane 5 is set to the initial value P1 by the pressing force setting section 82 (S2).
- the measurement of the elapsed time t is started by the timer 87 (S3).
- the concentration X of the ozone water is constantly detected by the ozone water concentration sensor 84, and the detected concentration X is compared with the first concentration. It is compared with the ozone water concentration target value Xs in the vessel 88a (S4).
- the target value Xs is set so as to allow a predetermined variation (X)
- the detected density X is actually compared with Xs ⁇ x ( ⁇ Xs).
- the concentration of ozone water is low (X ⁇ Xs) (S 4, No)
- the current value A at that time is preset in the power supply unit 24 by a signal from the first command unit 86a.
- a command is issued to increase A to A + a by adding the current value a, and operation is performed with the new current value (S5).
- the signal from the ⁇ r section 86a causes An instruction is issued to change the current value A to the current value A minus A—a.
- the current value A is controlled so that the concentration X of the ozone water is always maintained at a value near Xs.
- FIG. 1 shows the state after the point at which the concentration of ozone water reaches Xs in this way. If the operation is continued in this state, as shown in Fig. 1, the values of the current A and the voltage V are adjusted so that the concentration X of the ozone water is maintained at the concentration Xs with the deterioration of the electrolyte membrane. It gradually rises with the passage of time t. Therefore, an appropriate time (Tc) is set in advance so that the performance of the electrolyte membrane does not decrease and the concentration X of the ozone water does not decrease to the allowable lower limit Xe.
- Tc an appropriate time
- the operation of the operation time t is monitored by the third comparator 88c, and when t ⁇ Tc is reached (time t10) (S6, Yes), while energization and water flow are maintained ( That is, while the operation of the device is continued), the pressing force control device 81 is controlled based on the signal of the second ⁇ ⁇ part 86 b, and the pressing force P of both electrodes 3 and 4 is set to the initial value P 1 Is changed to low pressure P4 (S7).

- the current value A decreases to the lower current value A1 from the initial value A0 and the ozone water
- the concentration X also starts to slightly decrease from the predetermined value Xs.
- the voltage V rises to the maximum voltage value V e of the power supply.
- a predetermined period (time til) up to an appropriate time (time til) in the period in which the concentration of the ozone water is maintained at or above the allowable lower limit Xe is maintained.
- the third comparator 88 c compares the elapsed time t ′ after the change to the low voltage with the low-pressure holding period T 1, and when it reaches ⁇ T 1 (S 9, Y es), the third comparator 88 c Output to the first command unit 86 b. Then, a signal for returning the pressing force P to the initial value P1 is output from the second command section 86b to the pressing force control device 81 (shift to S2). As described above, the operation is restarted such that the concentration X of the ozone water is maintained at the predetermined value Xs. As a result, the concentration X of the ozone water returns to the predetermined value Xs, and the current and the voltage return to near the original values, respectively.
- the concentration of ozone water is below the set value Xs, so in order to recover this, the current value A instantaneously rises to the maximum allowable value Ae of the device and the concentration of ozone water increases. Enhance. However, when the concentration of the ozone water returns to the predetermined value Xs, the current value also returns to the vicinity of the initial value A0.
- the pressing force P of both electrodes 3 and 4 against the electrolyte membrane was reduced to a low pressure.
- the period T1 during which the electrolyte membrane is reduced to P4 is the regeneration period of the electrolyte membrane, and its regeneration principle is not clear.
- a change in the pressing force is applied to the electrolyte membrane whose function has been reduced due to harmful substances (such as hydrogen ions and impurities of impurities contained in the raw water) accumulated in the membrane or over the membrane surface over time. It is presumed that this will destroy the equilibrium state of harmful substances and restore membrane performance.
- the time T1 for maintaining the pressing force at the low pressure P4 (hereinafter referred to as "low pressure time”) is basically set to the lower limit Xe at which the concentration of the ozone water is allowed. It is arbitrary as long as it is a time until reaching.
- the repetition period (Tc: period from t10 to t12) is arbitrary as long as the concentration of the ozone water reaches the allowable lower limit Xe, but the relationship between the two is taken into consideration. There must be. That is, if the repetition cycle Tc is long, the low pressure time T1 is also long, and if the repetition cycle Tc is short, the low pressure time T1 may be short. Generally, when the repetition cycle Tc is set to about 10 to 30 minutes, the low pressure time T1 is set to several seconds, that is, about 1 to 5 seconds.
- (a) shows a method in which the pressing force P is changed from an initial value P1 to a pressure P5 lower than the pressure P4 in the V ⁇ 1 dog.
- the pressing force of P4 or less is maintained for a predetermined period of time from time 16 to t17, and the current A also decreases as the pressing force P decreases, and the current A decreases in the case of FIG.
- the current drops to a value A2 lower than the current A1 and gradually increases as the pressing force P increases.
- the voltage V rises as the pressing force P decreases, reaches the allowable maximum value V e, and then continues to this state, and decreases to the initial value V 0 as the pressing force recovers. Become.
- FIG. 11B is different from (a) in that the pressing force P is changed into a U-shape, and the pressure is reduced from the time t 18 to t 19 to a pressure lower than the set low pressure P 4.
- FIG. 3 (c) shows that the pressing force is changed to that of a dog, which is the same as that of (a) above, but at time t20 a predetermined low pressure P4 is reached, and the pressure is immediately increased to P1. It has become like. That is, in this case, there is no holding time at the predetermined low pressure P4 or less, but there is no particular problem with this method. However, in this case, the recovery force of the electrolyte membrane tends to be inferior to the operation of changing the pressing force in FIG. 1 or the operation of changing the pressing force in the above (a) and (b). It is necessary to consider shortening the cycle or setting the value of the set low pressure P4 low.
- FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the method of FIG.
- the pressing force P of the electrode against the electrolyte membrane is reduced from the initial value P1 to a low pressure.
- the return of the pressing force P to the initial value P1 and the change to the low pressure P4 are performed once to a plurality of times within a predetermined period (T2) until time t22.
- T2 a predetermined period
- this operation is performed periodically.
- a t low pressure time
- the concentration X of the ozone water changes little by little while increasing and decreasing while the change of the pressing force is repeated every minute time (A t).
- the pulse-like pressure change is stopped, the pressure is returned to the original pressing force P1, and the operation is continued.
- the time t23 after the lapse of the predetermined time (Tc) has been reached, the same pulse-shaped change in the pressing force is performed until the time t24, and the operation is continued by returning to the original pressing force P1 again. The same operation is repeated thereafter.
- the control for changing the pulse-like pressing force is performed by controlling the elapsed time t from the timer 187 shown in FIG. 21 and the signal from the word storage unit 89 storing the At. Is transmitted to the third comparator 88 c to perform a comparison operation, and outputs the result to the third command section 86 c every time ⁇ t elapses. This can be done by outputting the change ⁇ ⁇ to the pressing force controller 81.
- the repetition period of the change of the pressing force (T 2) and the cycle of the operation of changing the pressing force P (T c: period of t 21 to t 23) are the same as the above-mentioned case. Is arbitrary within a period until the value falls to the allowable lower limit value Xe. Also, if the performance of the electrolyte membrane cannot be recovered sufficiently even by the operation of changing the pressing force P, the concentration X of the ozone water will reach the allowable lower limit Xe. The treatment after reaching the lower limit Xe will be described later.
- FIG. 5 is an operation time chart showing another embodiment of the present invention. You. If the operation is continued while controlling the operation so that the concentration of the ozone water becomes the predetermined target value Xs, the current value A gradually increases and reaches the upper limit value Ae allowed for the device at time t31. If the operation is further continued in that state, the concentration of the ozone water gradually decreases, so an appropriate value Xm between the allowable lower limit Xe and the predetermined value Xs is set. When this word value Xm is detected (time t32), the pressing force of the electrolyte membrane is changed from the initial value P1 to the low pressure P4 as in the case of FIG.
- FIG. 6 shows a flowchart for realizing this operation time chart.
- the point where the concentration of ozonized water is controlled to a predetermined value Xs until the current value A reaches the upper limit value Ae of the device is (S1 to S4). Is the same as
- the second comparator 88b detects that the current value A has reached the upper limit value Ae (S5, Yes)
- the concentration of the ozone water thereafter starts to decrease.
- the concentration detection sensor 84 continues to detect the state of decrease in ozone water concentration.

- the first measure is to stop the operation of the device, disassemble the device and replace the electrolyte membrane
- the second measure is disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H11-172824.
- the third method is to stop the operation of the device, suspend the electrolyte membrane, and wait for the membrane function to recover.
- the third measure is, as shown in PCT / JP985 / 5576, This is a measure to activate the film by increasing the pressing force on the film.
- the first measure is replacement of the electrolyte membrane, detailed description will be omitted, and the second and third measures will be described.

- the number N of times at which this operation is stopped is counted by the number of stop times mi tens part 90 (S13), and it is determined by the fourth comparator 88d whether or not the predetermined number Ne has been reached. If the predetermined number Ne has not been reached (S14, No), the comparison operation is continued by the third comparator 88c until the stop time t exceeds the predetermined stop period Tr (S16). , No). When the predetermined stop period Tr has elapsed (S16, Yes), a signal to that effect is transmitted to the third command unit 86c to start the operation of the device (section e in FIG. 8). , S1).
- the pressing force of the electrolyte membrane is in a completely released state, and during this time, impurities and the like accumulated in the electrolyte membrane are released by the pressing force to regenerate the membrane.

Thereafter, the operation is continued while repeating the operation of changing the pressing force as shown in FIG. Then, when the performance of the electrolyte membrane deteriorates again and the predetermined concentration of ozone water cannot be obtained, the operation of stopping the operation and restoring the membrane function by releasing the pressing force on the electrolyte membrane as described above must be performed again. become. The same applies hereafter, and if such operations are repeated, it will not be possible to finally recover the membrane function.
- FIG. 10 also shows an example in which the operation is performed by performing the operation of changing the pressing force in FIG.
- the section (c) in the figure is the same as the section (c) in FIG. 8, and the membrane function does not recover even if the operation of changing the pressing force is performed.
- X has reached the lower limit Xe.

- the pressing force P is reduced from the predetermined value P7 to the low pressure value P4, and after maintaining this low pressure value for time T1, the time t72 The operation of returning the pressing force to the predetermined value P 7 again is periodically repeated.
- the electrolyte membrane is regenerated by changing the pressing force P of the electrode against the electrolyte membrane and maintaining the changed state for a predetermined time, but the principle is not clear. .
- the first hypothesis is that ions and ion clusters (aggregates of ions) that have accumulated in the electrolyte membrane over time and have degraded membrane performance have undergone state destruction due to changes in pressing force. It is believed that this will restore membrane function.
- the ion pair formed by the fixed charge and the ions in the electrolyte membrane acts as an electric dipole, but the distribution width of the negative charge is larger than the positive charge, and an effective dipole layer is formed on the ion cluster surface. Formation Is done.
- the reason why the distribution width of the negative charge is larger than that of the positive charge is that an asymmetric force acts between the negative fixed charges due to the arrangement energy of the polymer chain.
- ions move between clusters by hopping, they must cross the potential barrier created by the dipole layer.
- This potential barrier increases with the size and number of clusters, while the number and size of ion classes in the electrolyte membrane increase with time. For this reason, it is considered that the ion permeation barrier increases with time.
- tap water and well water used for ozone water production contain many impurities, and when this is electrolyzed, ions of various potentials pass through the membrane. It is thought that ions that easily permeate and ions that do not easily permeate simultaneously act on the electrolyte membrane. As a result, ion clusters accumulate in the membrane as a whole, and the permeable area gradually narrows with time. It is considered that applying a physical shock to the membrane in this state due to a change in the pressing force destroys the equilibrium state of the ion clusters and restores the membrane function.
- the second hypothesis is that the polarization state is eliminated by applying a change in the pressing force to the electrolyte membrane in which the permeation resistance of ions due to the polarization action is increased.
- hydrogen ions permeate to the cathode side.
- the ions combine to generate hydrogen molecules and become gaseous. Since the site through which hydrogen ions permeate is extremely small, the generated gas also becomes extremely fine bubbles. It is considered that the hydrogen in the fine bubbles adheres to the contact portion between the film and the electrode, and a state as if a hydrogen film was formed is generated. This phenomenon is similar to what is called polarization in the field of batteries. Since these fine bubbles of hydrogen are difficult to separate by physical impacts such as a water flow, the resistance gradually increases, and the film performance decreases. Change the pressing force in this state It is thought that the operation removes the fine bubbles of hydrogen and restores the membrane performance.
- the operation of changing the pressing force is preferably performed by changing the pressing force in the depressurizing direction. According to the results of experiments conducted by the present inventors, the change in the direction in which the pressing force is reduced is shorter than the case in which the pressing force is changed in the direction in which the pressing force is increased. This is because recovery has been recognized.
- the present inventors have succeeded in realizing a long-term continuous operation for one month or longer, which was conventionally impossible, by repeating the operation of changing the pressing force as shown in FIG. 1 during operation.
- This fact means that the operation and stoppages are repeated, and the actual operation rate of the electrolytic ozone water production equipment, which was said to be about 50%, is reduced to an ideal operation rate that is practically close to 100%.
- the first method is a method in which the membrane function is regenerated by changing the pressing force of the electrode against the electrolyte membrane.
- the second method an operation of changing the current value or the voltage value instead of the change of the pressing force is performed.
- FIG. 11 is an operation time chart showing the second method.
- the current value A gradually increases as described above. Therefore, at an appropriate time (time t51) before the current value A reaches the allowable upper limit value Ae of the device, the current value A is increased or decreased between the allowable maximum value Ae and the low current value A2.
- the operation of changing the pulse shape is performed for a predetermined time (T 5) until time t52.
- T 5 a predetermined time (T 5) until time t52.
- the voltage V changes in a pulsed manner between the low voltage value V 2 and the maximum allowable voltage value V e of the device, in response to the change in the current A, contrary to the change in the current A.
- the electrolyte membrane 5 is kept pressed at a predetermined pressing force P 1, so that various ion or ion clusters accumulated in the membrane or hydrogen formed between the membrane and the electrode as described above are formed. It is presumed that the fine bubbles collapse by the electric shock and the membrane function is restored.
- the operation for changing the current includes the method shown in FIG. 11, that is, a method in which the current is changed in a pulsed manner within a predetermined time T5, and a method in which the current value is changed to a small current value.
