Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of polymer fiber concrete, and specifically relates to an electrolytic cell structure with efficient electrolysis function. Background Technique

[0002] As a clean and efficient way to obtain energy, hydrogen production by electrolyzing water has received extensive attention in recent years. Especially for alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen production, it is widely used because of its relatively low cost and mature equipment. However, in the traditional alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen production process, the distribution and fluidity of the electrolyte have a direct impact on the electrolysis efficiency and the reaction activity on the electrode surface. At present, most electrolytic cell designs have problems such as uneven electrolyte flow and insufficient utilization of active substances on the electrode surface, resulting in low electrolysis efficiency and high power consumption.

[0003] In addition, the fixity of the electrode position limits the flexibility during the electrolysis process. The electrode distance has a significant impact on the electrolysis efficiency, but in the existing technology, there is a lack of an electrode position adjustment mechanism, and it is difficult to dynamically adjust the electrode distance during the electrolysis process to adapt to the optimal electrolysis conditions under different working conditions. A slight change in the electrode distance may lead to a significant change in the electrolysis performance. Therefore, developing a device that can dynamically adjust the electrode distance is of great significance for improving the electrolysis efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

[0004] To sum up, in the existing alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen production technology, insufficient electrolyte stirring and fixed electrode position are two main problems affecting the electrolysis efficiency and energy consumption; therefore, it is urgent to develop an electrolytic cell structure that can effectively stir the electrolyte and has the function of adjusting the electrode position, which is crucial for improving the efficiency and economy of alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen production.
