Recovery of chlorine from dilute hydrochloric acid by electrolysis using a chlorine resistant anion exchange membrane

A new chlorine resistant anion exchange membrane enables innovative possibilities for hydrochloric acid electrolysis for recovery of chlorine. This is of interest for hydrochloric acid that is neutralized in the chemical industry because purity and concentration are not sufficiently high for recycling. In the common electrolysis process hydrochloric acid is fed into the anode compartment and needs a satisfactory HCl concentration for supplying the anode with chloride ions. Using an anion exchange membrane as a cell separator the feed flows into the cathode chamber where a low HCl concentration is acceptable because Cl⁻ ions at the anode can be supplied by addition of a salt which is not consumed. Experimental data of the membrane and the process are presented: membrane permselectivity improved up to above 97% using CaCl₂ as added salt, chlorine current efficiency up to 98% and oxygen content as low as 0.5 vol%, cell voltage at 4 kA m⁻² 2.3 V, equivalent to 1740 kWh per t produced chlorine, even at low HCl concentrations. Thus, the power consumption is comparable with the common process. A problem of the new process is the high water transport through the membrane. Therefore, experiments for two process alternatives were carried out. Disadvantages of water transport can be avoided by using a high concentrated CaCl₂ solution as anolyte and catholyte and as absorption medium for diluted HCl gas streams. Additionally, a cell design was investigated where the anode is directly connected to the membrane in an empty (gas filled) anode compartment.     

燃料电池用阴离子交换膜分子结构研究进展

阴离子交换膜（AEMs）作为燃料电池的核心部件,其发展得到了普遍关注。然而,AEMs中聚合物骨架和阳离子基团无序的直接相连的结构导致了膜在应用过程中存在离子电导率低、碱稳定性差和机械性能不足等问题,因此对连接二者的分子结构进行设计,开发综合性能优异的AEMs很有必要。本文介绍了AEMs选择性透过的基本机理,并从不同的分子结构出发,总结了近年来应用较为广泛的嵌段结构、接枝结构、交联结构、局部高密度结构以及由局部高密度结构与其他三种结构组成的复合结构AEMs的研究进展;从离子电导率、碱稳定性、机械性能以及吸水率等方面对AEMs的性能提升进行了归纳,重点关注AEMs离子电导率和吸水率的权衡问题,并从分子结构及其组合使用的角度对燃料电池用AEMs的未来发展方向进行了展望。

质子交换膜燃料电池膜电极制备方法的研究进展

燃料电池技术作为一种绿色能源技术,在减少能源消耗、环境污染等方面具有巨大潜力。膜电极（MEA）是质子交换膜燃料电池（PEMFC）的核心部件,MEA中电化学反应的顺利进行需要各功能层的协调配合,MEA各功能层涉及的传质、导电、导质子、催化等方面均影响燃料电池的性能。根据制备方法,可以将MEA分为催化剂涂敷基底（CCS）型MEA、催化剂涂敷膜（CCM）型MEA、有序化MEA和一体化MEA。MEA的性能不仅由催化剂本身载量决定,也受其结构设计和制备工艺的影响。本文介绍了MEA制备过程中常见的改进方法,分别从催化剂喷涂、刮涂、模槽挤出涂覆方式,催化剂浆料组成中Nafion含量和溶剂极性选择,催化层梯度化、图案化及界面结构改进,PEM结构增强、图案化、成膜方式等方面的研究进展进行讨论。但是目前对于MEA各功能层界面间的研究较少,应该注意的是催化层/质子交换膜（PEM）界面以及催化层/气体扩散层（GDL）界面设计也将直接影响MEA的性能。     

Crosslinked anion exchange membrane with improved membrane stability and conductivity for alkaline fuel cells

As a core component of anion exchange membrane (AEM) fuel cells, it has practical significance to improve the performance of AEMs. However, it is difficult to obtain AEM with both good stability and high conductivity. In this study, a series of AEMs were prepared by chloromethylation, quaternization, and crosslinking reactions. The quaternization reaction was carried out first to ensure that there are abundant quaternary ammonium groups on AEM and enhance the conductivity of membrane. N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine was used as a crosslinker to improve membrane stability and mechanical property. A simple, mild, and cost-effective AEM synthetic route was developed. This strategy achieves a certain balance of electrochemical and physical properties. The effect of the crosslinking reactions on the property of membrane was evaluated. Crosslinked membranes have better dimensional stability (water uptake: 20.2% and swelling ratio: 2.1%), mechanical properties (55.84 MPa), and alkaline stability because crosslinked structures result in large steric hindrance. The mutually independent quaternization and crosslinking reaction do not affect the electrochemical performance of membranes; in the crosslinking reaction stage, crosslinker also reacted as quaternization agent and increased the number of reactive groups in AEM. Thus, the resulting crosslinked AEM exhibits higher ion exchange capacity and ionic conductivities (46.4 mS cm⁻¹). © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136, 48169.

阴离子交换膜改性及抗污染性能研究进展

电渗析技术应用于工业废水脱盐时,废水中有机物及其它杂质组分等会造成膜污染,进而影响脱盐性能。电渗析膜污染防治对促进电渗析在工业废水处理中的应用有重要意义。相比于阳离子交换膜,阴离子交换膜更易形成有机污染,且更严重。阴离子交换膜污染主要由腐殖酸、牛血清蛋白、阴离子表面活性剂等有机物造成,污染过程主要受静电作用、亲和作用和几何因素的影响。膜改性提高阴离子交换膜的抗污染性能是电渗析膜污染防治的有效方法,目前已有许多有关膜改性提高阴离子交换膜抗污染性能的报道。膜改性方法主要有化学改性法、等离子体改性法、表面涂覆改性法、电沉积改性法、自聚合改性法及改进基膜结构法等。本工作对阴离子交换膜改性及抗污染性能的研究进展进行了综述,对不同改性方法的优缺点进行了分析和评价。这些改性方法能提高阴膜表面的负电荷密度和亲水性、降低膜表面粗糙度和基膜含水率等,因此可以改善阴离子交换膜的抗污染性能。然而,目前研究获得的改性阴离子交换膜仍存在修饰层不稳定、抗污染性能不理想和性能测试不系统等缺点,需进一步优化改性方法、改性工艺、组分修饰及性能测试等,以获得抗污染性能稳定且效果良好的改性阴离子交换膜。     

Robust poly(p-phenylene oxide) anion exchange membranes reinforced with pore-filling technique for water electrolysis

Mechanical robustness and durability are crucial for anion exchange membranes to guarantee the longevity and consistent performance of AEM water electrolysis (AEMWE) systems. In this study, a composite membrane based on the quaternized poly(p-phenylene oxide) (QPPO)/polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was developed. This membrane was fabricated by enhancing the QPPO-based AEM through a pore-filling technique within a porous PTFE structure. The tensile strength of the composite membrane was increased significantly from 16.5 to 31 MPa. The conductivity of the composite membrane was 6.25 mScm⁻¹ lower than 30 mScm⁻¹ of the QPPO-based membrane at 20°C, resulting from the low volume fraction of QPPO in the composite membrane. At 40% RH, the net change mass of the composite membrane is 1.59%, much lower than that of QPPO-based membrane (10.98%) at 40°C. The composite membrane demonstrated a significantly increased lifetime in the working electrolyzer (>200 h) compared with an otherwise identical electrolyzer assembled with a QPPO-based membrane (50 h).     

Permeability of mono-carboxylate ions across an anion exchange membrane

Transport numbers of several aliphatic and aromatic carboxylate ions across an anion exchange membrane were determined on the basis of the transport number of the co-ions across the membrane in electrodialysis. Also, the specific conductivity and water content of each carboxylate ionic-form membrane were measured.The transport number of lower aliphatic carboxylate ions decreases slowly with increasing molecular weight, but it decreases markedly where the carbon number is over five. In particular, the transport number of caprylate or of caprate ions is below 0.5, and these ionic-form membranes apparently lose the characteristics of an anion exchange membrane. For aromatic carboxylate ions, the benzoate ion a higher transport number, but p- or O-hydroxybenzoate ions only about 0.6. The specific conductivity and water content of each carboxylate ion having a lower transport number are very small compared with other carboxylate ions of higher transport number. This suggests that the hydration number and the activity of ions with a lower transport number are small in anion exchange membranes.     

聚乙烯阴离子交换膜掺混聚偏氟乙烯改性表征

聚偏氟乙烯（PVDF）因含氟乙烯基单体,拥有良好的化学稳定性、热学稳定性和机械性能,与其他高分子膜材料相比更容易提高离子交换膜的性能。本实验采用热压法制备PVDF聚乙烯阴离子交换膜,探讨了PVDF含量对膜性能的影响,如膜电阻、离子交换容量、耐破度、含水率和选择透过性。利用红外光谱仪及扫描电子显微镜表征手段对PVDF膜表面性质和结构进行了分析。结果表明,当PVDF含量增加时,膜面电阻、耐破度升高。离子交换容量、含水率,反离子选择透过性降低。虽然PVDF的添加导致含水率、交换容量等膜性能的下降,但耐破度的升高表明膜稳定性和机械性能得到了提升,这赋予PVDF聚乙烯膜一定的使用价值。
