Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical electrolysis, in particular to a salt solution electrolysis device for sodium hypochlorite production. Background Art
[0002] Sodium hypochlorite is a highly effective disinfectant, bleaching agent and oxidant, and is widely used in many fields such as water treatment, medical care, food processing, papermaking, etc. The production of sodium hypochlorite by electrolytic reaction has the advantages of easy availability of raw materials, simple production process, and high product purity, which can meet the market demand for sodium hypochlorite.
[0003] In the prior art, when sodium hypochlorite is produced by electrolytic reaction using a sodium hypochlorite generator, during the electrolysis process, as the electrolysis time increases, hypochlorite ions in the sodium hypochlorite solution continue to accumulate and the concentration gradually increases. Under certain conditions, the hypochlorite ions react with each other to generate chlorate. In addition, long-term electrolysis also causes the state of the electrode surface to change, affecting the selectivity of the electrode reaction, thereby increasing the generation of chlorate. The disinfection ability of chlorate itself is relatively weak, and compared with sodium hypochlorite, its bactericidal and disinfecting effects are significantly reduced. Therefore, when the sodium hypochlorite solution contains more chlorate by-products, the overall disinfection effect of the solution will be reduced, affecting its application in water treatment, sanitary disinfection and other fields. In addition, chlorate has certain toxicity and poses potential hazards to the environment and human health. When discharging the sodium hypochlorite solution containing chlorate, if it is not handled properly, it will cause pollution to the soil, water bodies and other environments. In addition, long-term contact with the sodium hypochlorite solution containing chlorate will cause damage to the human respiratory system, digestive system, etc. Furthermore, the generation of chlorate by-products will cause corrosion and damage to the electrodes and other components of the sodium hypochlorite generator, thereby affecting the service life and performance of the equipment.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a saline solution electrolysis device for sodium hypochlorite production, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. Through the setting of the pH adjustment mechanism, a pH value monitoring device is installed in the electrolytic cell to monitor the internal pH value. When the pH value changes, the integrated controller controls the acidic or alkaline solution to be added into the funnel conduit, and then circulates into the electrolytic cell, so as to adjust the solution in the electrolytic cell to maintain a weak alkaline state. The pH value in the electrolytic cell is adjusted to a weak alkaline state through automatic monitoring and the use of multiple mechanisms. Under weak alkaline conditions, the stability of hypochlorite ions is relatively high, so the generation process of sodium hypochlorite is more stable, reducing the problem of unstable product quality caused by pH fluctuations, and maintaining a stable weak alkaline environment is more conducive to optimizing the electrolysis. The reaction rate and efficiency can be improved, thereby increasing the generation rate of sodium hypochlorite, making it less likely for this oxidation reaction to occur, significantly reducing the generation of by-products such as chlorate, and avoiding the reaction of hypochlorite ions with hydroxide ions to generate chlorate and oxygen under strong alkaline conditions, further avoiding the toxicity of chlorate causing damage to multiple organ systems of the human body, and weak alkaline conditions can better improve the purity of sodium hypochlorite and reduce the cost and difficulty of subsequent treatment of by-products. The reduction of by-products means that potential harm to the environment and human body can be reduced, as well as reducing equipment failures and production interruptions caused by pH imbalance, thereby improving production safety and reliability.
[0017] 2. Through the setting of the auxiliary cleaning mechanism, under the action of the internal and external dual motors built into the auxiliary tank, the internal motor is intermittently rotated and driven. With the coordinated use of multiple structures, the wiping strip is driven to reciprocate up and down, thereby cleaning the cathode and anode surfaces, avoiding the accumulation of sediments and impurities on the electrode surface as the use time increases, thereby hindering the effective contact between the electrode and the electrolyte, and reducing the reaction activity and conductivity of the electrode. The electrode surface is cleaned intermittently to remove sediments and impurities, while increasing the reaction rate and current density of the electrode, avoiding the increase in motor resistance and energy consumption in the electrolysis process after impurities cover the electrode, thereby improving energy utilization efficiency, ensuring the stable generation of sodium hypochlorite, better reducing the corrosion and damage of impurities to the cathode and anode, extending the service life of the electrode, and reducing the maintenance cost of the equipment.
[0018] 3. Through the setting of the spoiler paddle, the water flow generated by the rotating paddle can enhance the mass transfer process in the electrolyte, increase the material transfer rate, accelerate the reaction speed of ion migration and diffusion in the electrolysis reaction, and improve the generation efficiency of sodium hypochlorite. In addition, during the electrolysis process, the chloride ions in the electrolyte need to be in full contact with the electrode to undergo an oxidation reaction. The water flow generated by the rotating paddle can make the chloride ions diffuse to the electrode surface more quickly, promote the mixing of the electrolyte, and make the components in the electrolyte more evenly distributed, which is more conducive to improving the efficiency and uniformity of the electrolysis reaction and ensuring the stable quality of the generated sodium hypochlorite.

[0040] Everything in the above example works like this:
[0041] In the initial state, the arc surface of the protruding plate 27 contacts the storage tube 29, and the storage tube 29 is not provided with an acidic or alkaline solution, and the return spring 214 is compressed;
[0042] The following is the working process of the pH adjustment mechanism 2 for adjusting the pH value by adding acid or alkali according to the state of the electrolyte in the electrolytic cell body 21 to reduce the generation of byproducts such as oxoacid salts:
[0043] When in use, the pH value monitoring device built into the electrolytic cell 21 detects changes in the pH value of the sodium hypochlorite solution in the electrolytic cell 21. Since the generation of sodium hypochlorite is relatively stable under weak alkaline conditions, while the generation of byproducts such as chlorate is relatively small, when the pH value of the solution changes, the solution status is fed back to the integrated controller 11, and then the integrated controller 11 controls the external motor of the integrated dual motor built into the auxiliary cell 26 to start, and the output shaft of the external motor drives the protrusion plate 27 to rotate. When the protrusion plate 27 rotates, the arc surface on the protrusion plate 27 gradually moves away from the storage tube body 29. When the arc surface is released from the storage tube body 29, due to the protrusion block setting on the bottom surface of the protrusion plate 27, a height difference is formed with its surroundings. Therefore, after the protrusion plate 27 is released from the storage tube body 29, the storage tube body 29 gradually rises under the restoring force of the reset spring 214, and the space formed by the storage tube body 29 and the movable plug 28 is expanded, and the internal air pressure is reduced, and then the storage tube body 29 is released through the single block in the feed pipe 210. The inlet valve controls the external acidic or alkaline solution to enter the storage tube body 29. Under the continuous rotation of the protruding plate 27, after one circle, when it returns to the upper end of the storage tube body 29, the protruding plate 27 gradually contacts the storage tube body 29, pushing the storage tube body 29 downward. As a result, during the downward movement of the storage tube body 29, the space formed between the storage tube body 29 and the movable plug 28 is reduced, and the internal air pressure increases. Therefore, according to the pH value monitoring device installed in the electrolytic cell body 21, the acidity of the internal solution is fed back. Alkaline state, thereby controlling the feed pipe 210 to connect to the external acidic and alkaline solutions to flow into the feed pipe 210, and then when the internal air pressure rises, the acidic or alkaline solution in the feed pipe 210 flows into the storage tube body 29, and then squeezes the acidic or alkaline solution in the storage tube body 29 to flow out through the one-way liquid outlet valve in the discharge pipe 211, and then the solution flows into the funnel conduit 212 through the discharge pipe 211, and the funnel conduit 212 is connected with the inner cavity of the electrolytic cell body 21, so as to adjust the internal pH value;
[0044] By setting the pH adjustment mechanism 2, a pH value monitoring device is installed in the electrolytic cell body 21 to monitor the internal pH value. When the pH value changes, the integrated controller 11 controls the acidic or alkaline solution to be added into the funnel conduit 212, and then circulates into the electrolytic cell body 21, so as to adjust the solution in the electrolytic cell body 21 to maintain a weak alkaline state. The pH value in the electrolytic cell body 21 is adjusted to a weak alkaline state through automatic monitoring and the coordinated use of multiple mechanisms. Under weak alkaline conditions, the stability of hypochlorite ions is relatively high, so the generation process of sodium hypochlorite is more stable, reducing the problem of unstable product quality caused by pH fluctuations, and maintaining a stable weak alkaline environment is more effective. It is beneficial to optimize the rate and efficiency of the electrolytic reaction, thereby increasing the generation rate of sodium hypochlorite, making it less likely for this oxidation reaction to occur, significantly reducing the generation of by-products such as chlorate, and avoiding the reaction of hypochlorite ions with hydroxide ions to generate chlorate and oxygen under strong alkaline conditions, further avoiding the toxicity of chlorate from causing damage to multiple organ systems of the human body. In addition, weak alkaline conditions can better improve the purity of sodium hypochlorite and reduce the cost and difficulty of subsequent treatment of by-products. The reduction of by-products means that potential harm to the environment and human body can be reduced, as well as reducing equipment failures and production interruptions caused by pH imbalance, thereby improving production safety and reliability.
[0045] Please refer to the above working process Figures 1 to 4 .
[0046] The following is the working process of the auxiliary cleaning mechanism 3 for cleaning the surfaces of the cathode 23 and the anode 24 to reduce the presence of surface deposits and impurities, thereby improving their performance and reducing the generation of side reactions:
[0047] When in use, after the acid-base solution in the funnel conduit 212 flows into the electrolytic cell body 21, the inner driving shaft 31 is driven by the inner motor in the integrated dual motor built into the auxiliary cell body 26 to rotate clockwise, and then under the clockwise rotation, the reverse spiral setting of the arc groove 32 opened on the inner driving shaft 31 causes the sliders 35 on both sides to slide on the arc groove 32 and move downward along the arc groove 32 when the arc groove 32 rotates clockwise with the inner driving shaft 31. When the slider 35 moves downward, it pushes the slide bar 36 to slide downward in the positioning cavity 34 synchronously, and then causes the auxiliary spring 37 to be compressed. In the process of the slide bar 36 moving downward, the driving rod 38 connected to the slide bar 36 moves downward synchronously, and During the downward movement of the rod 38, the wiping strip 39 on the driving rod 38 is driven to move downward synchronously. During the downward movement, the surfaces of the cathode 23 and the anode 24 are cleaned to prevent the accumulation of sediments and impurities. Furthermore, when the inner driving shaft 31 rotates continuously, the arc groove 32 rotates synchronously therewith. When the slider 35 slides to the bottom of the arc groove 32, the vertical groove 33 is connected to the arc groove 32, and under the cooperation of the restoring force of the auxiliary spring 37, the slider 35 moves from the bottom of the vertical groove 33 to the top of the vertical groove 33, and then continues to slide into the arc groove 32, thereby forming an up and down reciprocating movement, indirectly controlling the wiping strip 39 to move up and down on the cathode 23 and the anode 24, and cleaning both sides of the cathode 23 and the anode 24.
[0048] Furthermore, under the setting of two groups of positioning cavities 34, the curvature of the arc groove 32 controls the sliders 35 on both sides to reciprocate intermittently, dividing the cathode 23 and the anode 24 into two parts for cleaning, disturbing the flow direction of the internal solution, and then while the inner drive shaft 31 is driven clockwise, the rotation of the inner drive shaft 31 drives the spoiler paddle 310 to rotate synchronously, so that under the rotation, the flow direction of the internal solution is better disturbed, the reactants of the electrolytic solution are further stirred and mixed, the contact efficiency of chlorine and hydroxide ions is improved, the local concentration is avoided to be too high or too low, the formation of sodium hypochlorite is promoted, the uniformity and stability of the reaction are improved, and the occurrence of side reactions is reduced.
[0049] By setting the auxiliary cleaning mechanism 3, under the action of the internal and external dual motors built into the auxiliary tank body 26, the internal motor is intermittently rotated and driven, and with the coordinated use of multiple structures, the wiping strip 39 is driven to reciprocate up and down, so as to clean the cathode 23 and the anode 24 surfaces, and avoid the accumulation of sediments and impurities on the electrode surface with the increase of use time, thereby hindering the effective contact between the electrode and the electrolyte, reducing the reaction activity and conductivity of the electrode. The electrode surface is intermittently cleaned to remove sediments and impurities, while increasing the reaction rate and current density of the electrode, avoiding the situation where the resistance of the motor increases and the energy consumption of the electrolysis process increases after the impurities cover the electrode, thereby improving energy utilization efficiency, ensuring the stable generation of sodium hypochlorite, better reducing the corrosion and damage of the cathode 23 and the anode 24 caused by impurities, extending the service life of the electrode, and reducing the maintenance cost of the equipment.
[0050] Furthermore, the spoiler paddle 310 is arranged to rotate synchronously with the cleaning operation. The water flow generated by the rotating paddle can enhance the mass transfer process in the electrolyte, increase the material transfer rate, accelerate the reaction speed of ion migration and diffusion in the electrolysis reaction, and improve the generation efficiency of sodium hypochlorite. In addition, during the electrolysis process, the chloride ions in the electrolyte need to fully contact with the electrode to undergo an oxidation reaction. The water flow generated by the rotating paddle can make the chloride ions diffuse to the electrode surface more quickly, promote the mixing of the electrolyte, and make the components in the electrolyte more evenly distributed, which is more conducive to improving the efficiency and uniformity of the electrolysis reaction and ensuring the stable quality of the generated sodium hypochlorite.
