What Is Ion Membrane Electrolyzer?

The Ion membrane electrolyzer is a cutting-edge technology used for water electrolysis to produce hydrogen gas. It is designed with advanced features to ensure efficient and reliable performance. This electrolyzer is widely used in various industries.

The Ion membrane electrolyzer utilizes an ion exchange membrane to separate the anode and cathode chambers in the electrolytic cell. When an electric current passes through the cell, water motes are resolved into hydrogen and oxygen feasts. The ion exchange membrane allows the passage of protons from the anode to the cathode while blocking the migration of other species, icing chastity hydrogen products. This process is known as electrolysis and is grounded on the principles of electrochemistry.

System Components and Structure:

The Ion membrane electrolyzer consists of several key components, including:

• Anode compartment: where water oxidation and oxygen gas release occur.

• Cathode compartment: where hydrogen evolution takes place.

• Ion exchange membrane: separates the anode and cathode compartments, only allowing the passage of protons.

• Electrodes: facilitate the electrochemical reactions at the anode and cathode.

• Power supply: provides the necessary electric current for electrolysis.

The system is compact, highly efficient, and easy to operate. Its robust construction ensures durability and long service life.

1. Working principle:

The ion exchange membrane has special permselectivity, allowing only cations to pass through and preventing anions and gases from passing through. In an ion membrane electrolyzer, the anode and cathode are placed on both sides of the ion exchange membrane. After electricity is applied, an oxidation reaction occurs at the anode and a reduction reaction occurs at the cathode. Due to the action of the ion exchange membrane, cations (such as hydrogen ions) migrate through the ion membrane toward the cathode, while anions (such as chloride ions) migrate toward the anode. In this way, chlorine gas is produced in the anode region, and hydrogen gas is produced in the cathode region.

2. Main process:

(1) Inject refined saturated brine into the anode chamber;

(2) Inject pure water into the cathode chamber (a certain amount of sodium hydroxide solution can be added);

(3) After electricity is applied, water decomposes to produce hydrogen and sodium hydroxide;

(4) Hydrogen is produced in the anode chamber and chlorine is produced in the cathode chamber;

(5) The ion exchange membrane prevents the mixing of hydrogen and chlorine to avoid explosion;

(6) The electrolyzed light salt water is exported from the anode chamber and is recycled after adding salt to increase the concentration.

Ion membrane electrolyzers are widely used in hydrogen production, chlorine production, alkali production and other fields. It has the advantages of high efficiency, environmental protection, safety, and other advantages, and can achieve green production.
