Problems solved by technology

It has been reported at home and abroad that a submersible fuel cell is used as a BOD sensor, which avoids the pumping of anolyte, but needs to continuously inject air
However, there are many problems in the reported fuel cell BOD sensors: (1) The cost of device construction is high: conventional electrode materials use noble metals such as platinum and gold, or use nanomaterials with cumbersome preparation processes; use expensive proton exchange membranes as diaphragms ; Aeration devices are often required during operation, which increases operating costs; (2) The linear range of BOD concentration is small; (3) The catalytic performance of electrode materials is low, and the decomposition time of organic matter is long, which affects the response time of the BOD sensor and the accuracy of the value;

preparation example Construction

[0030] The preparation method steps are as follows:

[0031] (1) Preparation of Styrofoam Super Nano Carbon: Take Styrofoam, cut into small pieces, then calcinate under nitrogen atmosphere and temperature at 150-350°C for 10-20min to obtain black powder, then Add potassium hydroxide (the ratio of foam plastic to potassium hydroxide is 1:3), stir at room temperature for 1 h, then dry at 120°C, and heat-treat the product for 2 h under nitrogen atmosphere to obtain the product;

[0032] (2) Prepare the sensor cathode: prepare the gas diffusion layer and the catalytic layer respectively, stack the two together, press them into a thin sheet with a thickness of 0.6 mm, and sinter at a constant temperature in a box-type resistance furnace at 350 ° C for 20 min. The preparation of the sensor cathode is completed;

[0033] The preparation conditions of the gas diffusion layer are as follows: uniformly disperse a certain amount of conductive silver powder in acetone, mix it with 60% PD...

Embodiment 1

[0037] Example 1: Take a piece of polystyrene foam plastic in the printer package, cut it into small pieces, and calcinate at 150°C for 10 minutes. Heat treatment temperature is 1000°C for 30 minutes, and calcined at 250°C for 15 minutes. Heat treatment temperature is 1200°C and time is 2 hours. Calcined for 20 minutes, the heat treatment temperature was 1500°C and the time was 6 hours. Three different conditions were used to prepare super nano-carbon foam plastics. The prepared super nano-carbon foam plastics were all in the form of black powder and had good electrical conductivity. The carbonization of the plastic is not complete, or excessive carbonization, so the follow-up implementation cases all use the super nano carbon foam prepared under the conditions of calcination at 250°C for 20 minutes and heat treatment at 1200°C for 3 hours. The super nano-carbon prepared by the method has good catalytic effect, simple preparation process and low price.

[0038] Embodiment 2: a kind of construction method of the fuel cell type BOD sensor based on foamed plastics super nano carbon electrode as above figure 1 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0039] 1) Take 1.5g of conductive silver powder and evenly disperse it in acetone, add 3.5g of 60% PDMS emulsion therein and mix evenly, and dry in a water bath at 80°C to obtain an elastic paste mixture. Put the paste mixture on the nickel foam and press it into a gas diffusion layer with a thickness of 0.35mm

[0040] 2) Take 0.3g foam plastic super nano-carbon powder and evenly disperse it in acetone, add 0.05g60% PDMS emulsion dropwise and mix evenly therein, dry the mixture in a water bath at 80°C and put it on the nickel foam with a tablet Machine press to form a catalytic layer with a thickness of 0.35 mm.

Abstract

The invention discloses a single chamber type BOD sensor device based on foamed plastic super nano carbon electrodes and a preparation method. The negative electrode of a sensor is composed of a catalytic layer, foamed nickel and a diffusion layer, the positive electrode of the sensor is composed of a catalytic layer and foamed nickel, and the catalytic layers of the negative electrode and the positive electrode are both made of foamed plastic super nano carbon; the foamed plastic super nano carbon-PTFE positive electrode and the foamed plastic super nano carbon-PDMS air negative electrode are prepared by taking the foamed plastic super nano carbon as a catalyst and adopting a tablet compressing method. The prepared foamed plastic super nano carbon electrode BOD sensor takes the foamed plastic super nano carbon as the electrode materials, the preparation process is simple, a noble metal catalyst, a proton exchange membrane, an electronic mediator or a power device are not needed, and the operation cost is low. Compared with other noble metal catalytic electrodes, the fuel cell type BOD sensor using the proton exchange membrane or an oxygen exposure device is wide in measuring range and easier to develop and utilize in a large scale.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of environmental monitoring, and uses super nano-carbon foamed plastic as an electrode catalytic material to construct a fuel cell type sensing device for detecting the BOD value of a water sample. A single-chamber BOD sensor device and a preparation method based on foamed plastic super nano-carbon electrodes are proposed. Background technique [0002] The basic principle of the fuel cell BOD sensor is to use the anode catalyst as the sensitive element. When the BOD substance in the sample is degraded and metabolized, it will be coupled to the change of the output current of the battery. Under certain conditions, the output power of the sensor is related to the concentration of BOD. It has a linear relationship and can be used for online monitoring of BOD. The fuel cell-based BOD sensor has the advantages of real-time speed, simple operation, etc., and can realize online automatic detection of BOD. [0003...
