Embodiment 1

[0020] Using nickel alloy powder 1 as cathode catalyst

[0021] The mass of Ni was 49.0 g, the mass of Al was 48.4 g, and the mass of Co was 2.6 g. Using nickel, aluminum and cobalt as raw materials, first put the three metals evenly mixed into a melting furnace, fully melt the mixture at a high temperature of 1450°C to alloy it, and then rapidly quench it to room temperature at a speed of 14°C / s. Finally, through crushing, ball milling (ball mill model: AX) and sieving, uniform nickel-based alloy powder 1 was obtained, with a particle size of about 38 μm.

[0022] Electrode preparation. Firstly, nickel-based alloy powder and Nafion solution are uniformly mixed in a certain proportion to make a catalyst slurry, and then the catalyst slurry is evenly coated on the surface of a carrier such as carbon paper, carbon cloth or carbon plate, and then the temperature is programmed (80-150°C) Method obtained by drying. The thickness of the catalyst layer is 18μm, and the catalyst lo...

Abstract

The invention provides a cathode catalyst used for producing hydrogen from organic waste water and a preparation method thereof. The catalyst comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 33 to 63 percent of Ni, 33 to 63 percent of Al, and 0.5 to 6 percent of Co. The catalyst has the advantages of simple preparation, low price, good catalytic activity and selectivity, and is a better cathode catalyst for replacing a noble metal catalyst to produce the hydrogen with low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a cathode catalyst for producing hydrogen from organic waste water and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Organic wastewater contains a large amount of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, cellulose and other organic matter, if discharged directly, it will cause serious pollution. Therefore, finding efficient, economical, and environmentally friendly wastewater treatment technologies has always been a research hotspot in the field of organic wastewater treatment, among which biological hydrogen production technology from organic wastewater is one of the research hotspots in organic wastewater treatment technology. Organic wastewater biological hydrogen production technology is to prepare hydrogen during the treatment of organic wastewater. It can degrade organic matter in organic wastewater, purify wastewater, and generate hydrogen to regenerate energy. [0003] Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) biological h...
