摘要: In this disclosure, a process of recycling acid, base and the salt reagents required in the Li recovery process is introduced. A membrane electrolysis cell which incorporates an oxygen depolarized cathode is implemented to generate the required chemicals onsite. The system can utilize a portion of the salar brine or other lithium-containing brine or solid waste to generate hydrochloric or sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide and carbonate salts. Simultaneous generation of acid and base allows for taking advantage of both chemicals during the conventional Li recovery from brines and mineral rocks. The desalinated water can also be used for the washing steps on the recovery process or returned into the evaporation ponds. The method also can be used for the direct conversion of lithium salts to the high value LiOH product. The method does not produce any solid effluent which makes it easy-to-adopt for use in existing industrial Li recovery plants.

摘要: A method for performing an electrolysis using an electrolysis stack having multiple electrolysis cells, wherein each of the electrolysis cells has: an anode space with an anode, a cathode space with a cathode, a membrane that separates the anode space and the cathode space from each other, and a recombination catalyst. The method includes feeding an electrolysis medium to the electrolysis stack and determining a flow rate at which the electrolysis medium is fed to the electrolysis stack, providing electrical energy to the electrolysis stack for performing the electrolysis with the electrolysis medium fed to the electrolysis stack, and determining a degree of degradation of the membranes based on the determined flow rate of the electrolysis medium.

摘要: A production method for producing a hydrogen gas through electrolysis of water is provided. The production method includes: decreasing a current density to a range that is greater than 0 A/cm2 and less than a value used in the electrolysis and in which the electrolysis does not stop; holding the current density for 1 second or more while introducing a gas to at least a hydrogen generating electrode; and decreasing the current density to a value at which the electrolysis does not take place so as to stop the electrolysis. It is preferable that the gas is a gas that is electrochemically inert to a fuel cell reaction. It is also preferable that the gas is at least one selected from the group consisting of nitrogen and a noble gas.
