Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electrolysis apparatus for producing halogen gases from an aqueous alkali halide solution with a plurality of plate-shaped electrolysis cells which are arranged next to one another in a stack and are in electrical contact, and each have a housing made of two half-shells made of electrically conductive material with external contact strips on at least one rear wall of the housing have, the housing having means for supplying the electrolysis current and the electrolysis input materials and means for discharging the electrolysis current and the electrolysis products and a substantially planar anode and cathode, the anode and the cathode being separated from one another and arranged parallel to one another by a partition and by means of metallic stiffeners are electrically conductively connected to the respectively assigned rear wall of the housing.
  • the invention also relates to a particularly preferred method for producing such an electrolysis apparatus, in which the individual electrolytic cells are first produced by making the respective housing from two half-shells with the interposition of the necessary devices and the cathode and anode as well as the partition and by fixing the same assembled by means of metallic stiffeners and anode and housing or cathode and housing electrically are attached to one another in a conductive manner, then the plate-shaped electrolytic cells produced in this way are arranged next to one another in an electrically conductive manner in a stack and braced against one another in the stack for the purpose of sustainable contacting.
  • the electrolysis current is fed to the cell stack on one outer cell of the stack, it passes through the cell stack in a direction substantially perpendicular to the central planes of the plate-shaped electrolysis cells and it is discharged at the other outer cell of the stack. Relative to the middle level, the electrolysis current reaches mean current density values of at least 4 kA / m 2 .
  • Such an electrolysis device is known from EP 0 189 535 B1 by the applicant.
  • the anode or the cathode are connected to the respective rear wall of the housing halves via metallic stiffeners similar to the framework.
  • On the back of the anode or cathode half-shell there is a contact strip for electrical contact to the neighboring electrolytic cell of the same structure.
  • the current flows through the contact strip through the rear wall into the truss-like metallic stiffeners and from there it spreads from the metal contact points - stiffening / anode - over the anode.
  • the current After the current has passed through the membrane, it is turned off by the cathode, in order to flow over the framework stiffeners into the rear wall on the cathode side and then again into the contact strip and from there into the next electrolytic cell.
  • the connection of the current-carrying components is carried out by spot welding.
  • the electrolysis current is concentrated in the welding points to form peak current densities.
  • a further disadvantage of the known electrolysis apparatus is that the stiffeners in the framework, which connect the rear wall and the electrodes to one another, are not arranged vertically between the rear wall and the electrode for reasons of flexibility, which leads to an extension of the current paths, which also leads to an increase in Cell tension results.
  • the current from the stiffening in the framework enters the electrode only at certain points, which on the one hand results in an uneven current distribution and on the other hand results in an increase in the cell voltage.
  • the non-uniform current distribution on the electrodes also leads to a non-uniform depletion of the electrolytes, which results in a reduction in the current efficiency and a reduction in the membrane life.
  • the object of the invention is to provide an electrolysis apparatus in which the areas through which current flows are as large as possible, in order to avoid only selective introduction into the electrodes and the contact strips and thus an uneven distribution of current.
  • This design of the electrolysis apparatus according to the invention largely avoids uneven areas through which current flows and the current is not only tuell, but largely introduced into the electrodes and the contact strips.
  • the current paths themselves are short, since the stiffening webs can be arranged vertically between the respective rear wall and the respective electrode. Due to this design, the required cell voltage is significantly lower compared to the known electrolysis apparatus.
  • the cathodes can consist of iron, cobalt, nickel or chromium or one of their alloys and the anodes can consist of titanium, niobium or tantalum or an alloy of these metals or of a metal or oxide ceramic material.
  • the electrodes are preferably provided with a catalytically active coating.
  • the electrodes are preferably provided with perforations (perforated sheet metal, expanded metal, wickerwork or thin sheets with blind-like openings), so that through their arrangement in the electrolysis cell, the gases formed during the electrolysis can easily enter the back space of the electrolysis cell. This gas discharge means that the electrolyte between the electrodes has the lowest possible gas bubble content and thus maximum conductivity.
  • the partition is preferably an ion exchange membrane which generally consists of a copolymer of polytetrafluorinated ethylene or one of its derivatives and a perfluorovinyl ether sulfonic acid and / or perfluorovinyl carboxylic acid. It ensures that the electrolysis products do not mix and, because of their selective permeability for alkali metal ions, allows the current to flow. Diaphragms can also be used as a partition. A diaphragm is a fine-porous partition that prevents the gases from mixing and provides an electrolytic connection between the cathode and anode compartments, thus allowing the current to flow.
  • the webs forming the metallic stiffeners can be formed over the entire surface or can be provided with openings or slots.
  • an inlet distributor is provided, via which the electrolytes can be fed into the half-shells.
  • This inlet distributor is preferably designed such that each segment of a half-shell can be supplied with fresh electrolyte via at least one opening in the inlet distributor and the sum of the areas of the openings in the inlet distributor is less than or equal to the cross-sectional area of the inlet distributor.

  • the integral joining of the double or triple bond eliminates the joining surfaces between the web and the back wall on the one hand and between the back wall and the contact strip on the other hand or between the web and the electrode.
  • the electrolysis current flow no longer needs to overcome the electrical surface contact resistances present in the joining surfaces.
  • the triple bond considerably increases the bending stiffness of the rear walls of the half-shells. Since both the pretensioning force in the stack and the electrolysis current are transmitted between the back walls of the electrolysis cells, both are at the same time direct via the respective contact strips of the neighboring electrolysis cell back walls transferred - the contact strips must remain flat under the action of the clamping force, so that the fullest possible current flow can take place between the adjacent contact strips.
  • the higher bending stiffness of the triple composite reduces the electrical contact resistance between the individual electrolytic cells in the stack.
  • the anode half-shells preferably consist of a material resistant to halogens and saline, while the cathode half-shells preferably consist of a material resistant to alkali lyes.
  • a generic method for producing the above-described electrolysis apparatus is characterized according to the invention in that the metallic, electrically conductive connection of the stiffeners formed as webs to the respective rear wall and the anode or cathode is produced by a reductive sintering process or by a welding process.
