  • electrolyte i.e. generally water.
  • alkaline or acidic water is used as the electrolyte.
  • the electrolyser includes electrodes that conduct electrical energy to the electrolyte and thus decomposes the electrolyte.

  • the sulfur releasing compound is typically selected among Thiourea, Potassium thiocyanate, Sodium thiocyanate, and So ⁇ dium hydrosulfite .
  • an electro-catalytic coating is formed on surface of the electrode, usually the electrode to be used as the cathode in the electrolyser .
  • the coating is usually formed on top of a metallic substrate and it is characterized by its amorphous or nanocrystalline structure.
  • Such coatings have beneficial properties for the HER and/or the OER especially in alkaline electrolysis and in the chloralkali process.
  • the formed amorphous alloy formed by the electro-catalytic coating generally includes one or more elements but the main constituent is usually Nickel. Additionally, the electro- catalytic coating includes sulfur. The amount of incorporated sulfur usually varies between 10 and 30 wt%. Other elements can be Cobalt, Molybdenum and Iron. The sulfur containing electro-catalytic coating along with the underlying metallic substrate together forms the electrode.
  • the removal of the sulfur from the Sulfur-based electrode is typically a slow process and usually takes several days going up to months.
  • the sulfur that is slowly released by the Sul ⁇ fur-based electrode accumulates in the electrolyser and the electrolyser components introducing a contamination and corrosion risk and further increases risk of stress corrosion cracking of pressurized parts of the electrolyser, if any, thereby decreasing lifetime of the electrolyser.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un système d'activation d'une électrode à base de soufre pour un électrolyseur. L'électrode à base de soufre comprend du soufre et un matériau électroconducteur autre que du soufre tel que du nickel. Dans le procédé, un électrolyte et un agent complexant sont introduits dans un récipient. L'électrode à base de soufre est disposée dans le récipient. L'électrolyte et l'agent complexant sont mis en contact avec au moins une partie d'une surface de l'électrode à base de soufre. L'électrolyte réagit avec l'électrode à base de soufre pour libérer au moins une partie du soufre de l'électrode à base de soufre. L'agent complexant réagit avec le soufre libéré pour former un complexe de coordination avec le soufre libéré. Le complexe de coordination est retiré du récipient. Le complexe de coordination formé par la réaction chimique entre le soufre libéré et l'agent complexant est à l'état solide et est donc retiré facilement de l'électrolyte qui est à l'état liquide.
