The invention relates to an electrochemical treatment device and method for degradation-resistant organic
wastewater, and designs a'zero polar distance' SPE (
Solid Polymer Electrolysis) electrooxidation
sewage treatment electrolytic bath like a
solid polymer electrolyte fuel
cell technology. According to the device, an
anode chamber and a
cathode chamber are separated by utilizing an
ion exchange membrane, the
anode with stable
titanium-based size, the
ion exchange membrane and the
nickel cathode are pressed by utilizing an end plate, and a'zero polar distance' SPE electrooxidation
sewage treatment electrolytic bath is formed. When the device is subjected to electrolytic operation, the
wastewater is electrically oxidized at the
anode, so that organic matters and
ammonia nitrogen in the water are mineralized and degraded; and running water or the
wastewater is introduced into the
cathode chamber, and
hydrogen separated out due to
electrolysis at the cathode is recovered. The device has the advantages that extra
supporting electrolyte is not needed to be added, the bath pressure and
energy consumption of electrooxidation can be greatly reduced due to the'zero polar distance', and the problem that
oxygen (
chlorine) and
hydrogen separated out in the
electrolysis process is solved. In addition, a carbon material is not used, reduction of current efficiency caused by
carbon corrosion is avoided, and the reliability and stability of the
sewage treatment device are improved. Moreover, continuous
water flow is utilized at the cathode, and the scaling and plugging possibility on the cathode side of the
ion exchange membrane can be greatly reduced.
