- the present inventors have found that the decrease in dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration can be suppressed, and have completed the present invention. Hereinafter, this point will be described in detail.
- FIG. 12 shows the state of hydrogen gas generated on the cathode electrode surface.
- the interface layer of an aqueous solution is composed of a Helmholtz layer 10 and an electric double layer (diffusion layer) 9.
- the Helmholtz layer 10 is divided into an inner Helmholtz layer and an outer Helmholtz layer.
- the main molecules of the Helmholtz layer 10 are water molecules that are solvent molecules.
- Anode 2H 2 O ⁇ O 2 + 4H + + 4e -
- the cathode 2H + + 2e - ⁇ H 2
- hydrogen molecules generated in the Helmholtz layer 10 or hydrogen molecular bubbles 11 having a minimum diameter (nm order) move to the electric double layer 9 and have a larger diameter.
- the hydrogen molecular bubbles 12 are larger than the hydrogen molecular bubbles 13.
- the dissolved hydrogen concentration is expected to be larger than the value from an equilibrium viewpoint.
- the amount of hydrogen gas generated when electrolysis is simply performed at a current density of 0.2 A / cm 2 is calculated. Assuming that electrolysis is performed under this condition within 1 ⁇ m of the cathode electrode surface per unit area, about 800 ppm of hydrogen molecules are generated in the cathode electrode surface layer. Assuming that hydrogen molecules are dissolved at this concentration, and based on the AHPray et al. Experiment (HA PRAY et al., IN DUSRIAL AND ENGI NEERING CHEMISTRY Vol. 44, No. 5, 1146) The value when the dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration in is converted to pressure is assumed to be about 1000 HPa or more. In other words, the hydrogen gas dissolves under a high pressure of about 1000 HPa or more.
- the present invention relates to a method of effectively utilizing dissolved hydrogen molecules on the cathode electrode surface in this non-equilibrium state. Furthermore, the report by Seihara et al. Describes that 200 nm of hydrogen gas was observed on the cathode electrode surface. It has been reported that when the size of the hydrogen gas is 200 nm or less, it becomes transparent and uniform visually, and the stability of the hydrogen gas in the electrolyzed water is improved. This stability is important in terms of the lifetime of residual hydrogen gas in developing the business of water in which hydrogen molecules are dissolved.
- the present inventor In order to suppress the decrease in the dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration by reducing the dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration by increasing the dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration above the equilibrium concentration value, the present inventor efficiently converts the high dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration water into the bulk water.
- the present invention relates to a method for efficiently transferring high-dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration water near the cathode electrode to bulk water by applying a dynamic action to the cathode electrode surface.
- the dissolved hydrogen concentration in the reduced water can be increased by any of the following methods (1) and (2).
- (1) Ultrasonic application The Helmholtz layer and the electric double layer (diffusion layer) are agitated by ultrasonic vibration, and by this agitation, hydrogen gas bubbles with a small diameter in the Helmholtz layer move to the electric double layer (diffusion layer).
- the concentration of hydrogen gas bubbles with a small diameter is increased in the double layer.
- the concentration of hydrogen gas having a small diameter in the bulk water is increased, and the dissolved hydrogen concentration in the obtained reduced water is also increased.
- FIG. 13 shows a graph as an example of the application of current and the generated hydrogen gas according to the method.
- FIG. 13 is a graph corresponding to the case where the half-wave rectified current is applied to the cathode electrode in Experimental Example 1 described later. In FIG. 13, the half-wave rectified current is applied to the cathode electrode as indicated by the dotted line current value. Yes.
- the pressure in the cathode chamber in order to increase the dissolved hydrogen concentration, it is preferable to increase the pressure in the cathode chamber. Specifically, it is preferable to set the pressure in the cathode chamber to 0.01 to 0.1 kg / cm 2 .
- alternating current is desirable for increasing the dissolved hydrogen concentration.
- the cathodic electrolysis reaction so using an ordinary alternating current in an alternating current will cause the anodic reaction to mix, increasing the concentration of dissolved hydrogen molecules. becomes difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the value of the electrolysis current to such a value that hydrogen gas bubbles having a large diameter are hardly visually observed even if the cathode electrolysis current is at least.
- a current having an alternating current component having an average current value of zero or more can be applied to the cathode electrode, preferably a current having an alternating current component having a minimum current value of zero or more, more preferably A half-wave rectified or full-wave rectified alternating current is applied to the cathode electrode. Therefore, for example, a rectified AC power source or a pulse power source can be used as a power source for an electric current having an AC component whose current average value is zero or more. Since the present invention focuses on efficient movement of hydrogen gas bubbles, there is a limit on the upper frequency limit. In general, when the frequency dependence of a phenomenon involving mass transfer is measured, an effect of alternating current or pulse current appears on electrolysis in a region of about 10 kHz or less.
- Example 1 A system based on the first embodiment described above was constructed.
- a reverse osmosis membrane filter manufactured by Seemsbionics was used as the reverse osmosis membrane filter 140.
- a DC power source or a 50 Hz AC power source was used as the power source.
- the comparison was made with no rectification, full-wave rectification, or half-wave rectification.
- the size of the electrolytic cell was 6 ⁇ 8 ⁇ about 1 cm in both the anode chamber and the cathode chamber.
- the outer dimension of the electrode was 8 ⁇ 6 cm 2 (material: platinum plate applied to titanium plate).
- the anode was a porous anode having 130 6 mm ⁇ holes at the same interval.
- the electrolysis current was set to 4A.
- the current density is 0.83 mA / cm 2 .
- the dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration in the reduced water was measured with a methylene blue reagent. The results are shown in Table 1.
- the ultrasonic vibrator is attached at a position in contact with the cathode electrode outside the electrolytic cell, and as shown in FIG. 4, the ultrasonic vibrator is ion-exchanged near the cathode electrode surface in the cathode chamber. Prepared by being embedded in resin.
- Results are shown in Tables 2 and 3. As shown in Tables 2 and 3, low frequency mechanical vibration (about 250 Hz) had no effect of increasing the dissolved hydrogen concentration. Using a DC power source and ultrasonic vibration (about 2.4 MHz), a dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration of 1.8 ppm was measured transiently, and a result exceeding the equilibrium value was obtained. Furthermore, it was found that the dissolved hydrogen concentration increased transiently when ultrasonic irradiation and rectified alternating current were combined.
- Example 3 A reduced water production system including the three-chamber electrolytic cell shown in FIG. 7 was configured.
- the size of the anode chamber, cathode chamber, and intermediate chamber was 6 ⁇ 8 ⁇ about 1 cm.
- Purified water and 50 g of ascorbic acid were added to the intermediate chamber (concentration: about 5%). This aqueous solution was constantly circulated.
- Other configurations were the same as in Experimental Example 1.
- full-wave rectification 50 Hz, 4 A was applied to the cathode electrode, and water flowed at 0.5 l / min.
- By adjusting the valve at the outlet of the electrolytic cell to adjust the pressure of the cathode chamber to 0.1 kg / cm 2.
- the measured value of the transient dissolved hydrogen molecule concentration increased by 2.6 ppm compared with 2.3 ppm before the intermediate chamber liquid circulation.
