specific Embodiment 1

[0060] Two 10cm×10cm graphite electrodes with a thickness of 1cm were used as the cathode and anode electrodes respectively, and the N115 proton exchange membrane of 5.5cm×5.5cm (effective area 5cm×5cm) separated the cathode and yang graphite electrodes. Use a high temperature circulator and a water circulation system to control the temperature of the anode and cathode liquid storage tanks.

The deionized water in the cathode storage tank is pumped into the cathode of the single cell. The temperature of the positive and negative electrodes of the electrolytic cell is controlled by the heating plate of the single cell and the temperature controller. Turn on the online hydrogen analyzer, and at the same time feed high-purity argon with a certain mass flow rat...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technology of sulphur and iodine circulation hydrogen production, and particularly provides a hydrogen production method adopting electrochemistry to disintegrate HI in sulphur and iodine circulation hydrogen production and a device. The method includes the steps that a monocell is used as a reactor, the monocell has anode graphite electrode and cathode graphite electrode, and a proton exchange membrane is used as a diaphragm; HIx homogeneous solution in the sulphur and iodine circulation hydrogen production system is injected into the anode side, and deionized water is injected into the cathode side; power supply is turned on to carry out decomposition reaction, I- of the anode side HIx homogeneous solution is oxidized to I2, and generated H+ passes through proton exchange membrane to reach the cathode side and is reduced to hydrogen; HIx homogeneous solution of the anode side enters a Bunsen reactor to be Bunsen reaction raw material in a circulating modeafter electrolytic reaction, and hydrogen generated from cathode side is sent out. According to the hydrogen production method adopting electrochemistry to disintegrate HI in sulphur and iodine circulation hydrogen production, an HIx solution is directly decomposed adopting electrochemistry method, the original process of concentration and distillation is omitted, and the process and the device are greatly simplified. Hydrogen is generated from cathode, and the separation problem with HI gas does not need to be considered.
