[0018] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, a sodium chlorate electrolysis production system comprises a chlorine supply main pipe 1, a brine pipeline 2, a gas-liquid mixer 3, an electrolyte buffer tank 4, an electrolytic reactor 5, an exhaust fan 6, an exhaust scrubber 7, an alkali solution tank 8 and an alkali solution delivery pump 9; the electrolyte buffer tank 4 is divided into a circulation area 4.1 and a product area 4.2 by an overflow partition 10, and an overflow port is provided on the upper part of the overflow partition 10;

[0019] The chlorine supply main pipe 1 is connected to the air inlet of the gas-liquid mixer 3, and chlorine is transported to the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the chlorine supply main pipe 1. The brine pipeline 2 is connected to the liquid inlet of the gas-liquid mixer 3, and brine is transported to the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the brine pipeline 2. The gas-liquid mixer 3 is mainly used to dissolve chlorine in water and react with water to adjust the pH value of the mixed solution. The discharge port of the gas-liquid mixer 3 is connected to the liquid inlet pipeline 11 in the circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4. The circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4 The discharge port of 4.1 is connected to the inlet of the electrolytic reactor 5 through the first circulation pipeline 12, and a circulation pump 13 is installed on the first circulation pipeline 12. The outlet of the electrolytic reactor 5 is connected to the second circulation pipeline 14, and the outlet of the second circulation pipeline 14 is connected to the liquid inlet pipeline 11. The electrolytic reaction is carried out through the electrolytic reactor 5, and the electrolyte after the reaction enters the circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4. Since the density of the product after electrolysis is less than the density of the electrolyte before electrolysis, the product in the circulation area 4.1 The electrolyte that has not been electrolyzed is in the lower part of the circulation area 4.1, and is continuously circulated between the electrolyte buffer tank 4 and the electrolytic reactor 5 through the first circulation pipeline 12 and the second circulation pipeline 14 under the action of the circulation pump 13, and the above process is repeated; the top of the circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4 is also connected to the crystallization mother liquor delivery pipeline 15, and the product area 4.2 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4 is discharged The sodium chlorate solution is dechlorinated and crystallized, and the separated crystallization mother liquor enters the circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4 through the crystallization mother liquor delivery pipeline 15 to mix with the electrolyte, continue to participate in the circulation, and finally output as a product to reduce waste liquid discharge. The crystallization mother liquor delivery pipeline 15 is connected with the brine pipeline 2 through the first pipeline 16. The crystallization mother liquor enters the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the first pipeline 16 and the brine pipeline 2, mixes with chlorine gas and brine, and adjusts the temperature and pH to continue the electrolysis reaction;

[0020] A corrosion-resistant pipe sight glass 17 is also installed at the discharge port of the gas-liquid mixer 3, through which bubbles are observed and the degree of gas-liquid mixing is analyzed; the exhaust port of the gas-liquid mixer 3 is connected to the inlet of the exhaust fan 6 through a pipeline, and the outlet of the exhaust fan 6 is connected to the air inlet of the exhaust washing tower 7 through a pipeline, and an alkali liquid delivery pump 9 is installed in the alkali liquid tank 8, and the outlet of the alkali liquid delivery pump 9 is connected to the liquid inlet of the exhaust washing tower 7 through a pipeline, and the discharge port of the exhaust washing tower 7 is connected to the inlet of the alkali liquid tank 8 through a pipeline. The top of the alkali solution tank 8 is connected with an alkali replenishing pipeline. When bubbles are observed to overflow from the discharge port of the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the corrosion-resistant pipeline sight glass 17, the exhaust fan 6 is started to extract the excess chlorine into the exhaust washing tower 7. At the same time, the alkali solution delivery pump 9 delivers the alkali solution in the alkali solution tank 8 to the exhaust washing tower 7. The chlorine enters the exhaust washing tower 7 from bottom to top, and after fully contacting and reacting with the alkali solution, it is absorbed by the alkali solution. The mixed liquid at the bottom of the exhaust washing tower 7 flows into the alkali solution tank 8, and the above-mentioned washing process is continued through the alkali solution delivery pump 9;

[0022] Working process: chlorine is delivered to the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the chlorine supply main pipe 1, and brine is delivered to the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the brine pipeline 2. Chlorine is dissolved in water in the gas-liquid mixer 3 to react with water, and chlorine is used instead of hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH value of the mixed solution; a pH sensor 19 is installed at the discharge port of the gas-liquid mixer 3. When the pH sensor 19 detects that the pH value of the mixed solution is higher than the set range, the controller 20 controls the opening of the pneumatic regulating valve 18 to increase, and automatically adjusts the amount of chlorine added; when the pH sensor 19 detects that the pH value of the mixed solution is within the set range, the controller 20 controls the pneumatic regulating valve 18 to be adjusted to a suitable opening;

After the electrolytic reactor 5 is started, the electrolyte is continuously circulated between the electrolyte buffer tank 4 and the electrolytic reactor 5. Initially, no product is output, and the pH value of the electrolyte is adjusted to 6.6±0.1;

[0024] After the electrolysis reaction occurs in the electrolysis reactor 5, the electrolyte enters the circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4. Since the density of the product after electrolysis is lower than that of the electrolyte before electrolysis, the product is in the upper part of the circulation area 4.1 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4. When the product overflows to the product area 4.2 of the electrolyte buffer tank 4 through the overflow port of the overflow partition 10, the product output begins.

[0025] During the electrolytic reaction, bubbles are observed through the corrosion-resistant pipe sight glass 17 to analyze the degree of gas-liquid mixing; when bubbles are observed overflowing from the discharge port of the gas-liquid mixer 3 through the corrosion-resistant pipe sight glass 17, the exhaust fan 6 is started to pump excess chlorine into the exhaust washing tower 7, and at the same time, the alkali solution delivery pump 9 delivers the alkali solution in the alkali solution tank 8 to the exhaust washing tower 7, and the chlorine enters the exhaust washing tower 7 from bottom to top, and after fully contacting and reacting with the alkali solution, it is absorbed by the alkali solution, and the mixed liquid at the bottom of the exhaust washing tower 7 flows into the alkali solution tank 8, and the above-mentioned washing process is continued through the alkali solution delivery pump 9.
