Abstract: |
|
A bipolar membrane electrodialysis (BMED) stack with three compartments was adopted to directly produce sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid by sodium chloride splitting. Effects of current density, feed concentration and electrode compartment concentration on the BMED performances were well investigated. Also the influences of two different kinds of cation-exchange membranes were compared with each other. The results exhibited that with current density of 30 mA?cm-2 and 1.5 mol?L-1 NaCl solution, the conversion rate of NaOH could achieve 80.19 % in 220 min. The conversion rate and energy consumption increased as the current density increased. At the constant current density, the resistance of the stack reduced as NaCl concentration increased, and the energy consumption reduced accordingly. The concentration of electrode compartment with low concentration (1 %~2 %) was better than high concentration (3 %~4 %) in this condition. Furthermore, 10 % NaCl was supplied to the feed compartment continually, the concentration of product NaOH can reach 10 %, which was 2.5 times compared with the one-time addition of NaCl. |
