[0010] Patent document CN111005029A discloses: the use of a common anode and symmetrical double cathode design realizes the self-balancing pressure of electrolyzed water for gas production, without the need for an external pressure balance pump, which can greatly improve the stability and efficiency of high-pressure electrolyzed water for gas production. Channel design, that is, two cathodes share one liquid inlet channel and one liquid discharge channel, and the anode uses another liquid inlet channel and liquid discharge channel. The total amount of gas generated on the two cathodes during electrolysis is twice that of the gas generated by the anode. Therefore, in the cathode drainage channel, it is very easy to fail to discharge due to excessive gas production, resulting in excessive pressure in the cathode electrolysis chamber, which increases the pressure difference on both sides of the diaphragm, and eventually causes the diaphragm to rupture.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of water electrolysis gas production, and provides a water electrolysis gas production device and method. The water electrolysis gas making device comprises a water electrolysis gas production unit or a combination of a plurality of water electrolysis gas production units, wherein each water electrolysis gas production unit comprises a mutually independent anode reaction chamber, two cathode reaction chambers, an anode connected with an external power supply and two cathodes connected with the same external power supply, the two cathodes are connected in parallel, the anode is positioned in the anode reaction chamber, and the two cathodes are respectively positioned in the two cathode reaction chambers. The water electrolysis gas production method comprises the step of producing gas by electrolyzing water by adopting the device. According to the device and the method, the pressure difference between the anode reaction chamber and the cathodereaction chamber is basically zero, and the stability of the gas production process is good. Under the condition that the pressure difference is basically zero, electrolysis gas production can be carried out under extremely high pressure so that high-pressure gas can be directly produced without additional pressurization in the later period, and the requirement of on-site high-pressure hydrogen production is met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of gas production by electrolysis of water, in particular to a device and method for gas production by electrolysis of water. Background technique [0002] Extensive use of fossil energy has led to global climate and environmental problems. For this reason, countries have vigorously developed renewable energy, such as wind energy, solar energy, and tidal energy. However, new energy sources such as wind energy and solar energy have uncontrollable fluctuations, and direct grid-connected power generation will bring devastating damage to the grid. Converting renewable energy into chemical energy by electrolyzing water to produce hydrogen is a feasible energy storage method, and combining it with renewable energy can well solve the impact of renewable energy on the grid. [0003] The electrolytic water reaction occurs in an electrolyzer, and the electrolyzer is mainly composed of a cathode, an anode, and a diaph...
