The interior IKK of the cathode chamber KK is separated from the interior IKM of the central chamber KM by a separating wall W comprising at least one alkali-cation-conductive solid ceramic electrolyte (=“AFK”) F (e.g. NaSICON). F has the surface OF. A part OA/MK of the surface OF directly contacts the interior IKM, and a part OKK of the surface OF directly contacts the interior IKK. The surface OA/MK and/or the surface OKK comprises at least one part of a surface OFΔ. OFΔ is produced from a pre-treatment step in which F is produced from an AFK F′ comprising the surface OF′. For this purpose, AFK is removed from F′ by etching the surface OF′ using an etching agent Ä, and the AFK F with the surface OF comprising the surface OFΔ formed by the etching process is obtained. During the electrolysis process for producing the alkali metal alcoholates with F instead of F′, an improved conductivity is provided, whereby for a constant current density, a lower voltage can be used.

Abstract

The invention relates to the coating of cation exchange membranes with catalytically active substances. The catalytically actively coated cation exchange membranes are used in electrochemical cells, especially in fuel cells (proton exchange membrane fuel cells - PEMFC) or in electrolysers for water electrolysis (polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis - PEMWE). In order to counteract the disadvantages of conventional decal processes, an alterative process for coating cation exchange membranes was sought which enables the transfer of electrocatalysts without the need for high temperatures, high pressures and PFAS-based substrates. It was surprisingly found that catalyst layers which are treated, shortly before the transfer step, with a polymer-swelling solvent conducting the cations can be transferred far more easily.

The dividing wall W comprises a frame element R that forms an edge element RR and a separating element RT. The frame element R comprises two opposite parts R1 and R2, with at least two alkali metal cation-conducting solid-state electrolyte ceramics FA and FB disposed therebetween. The separating element RT lies between alkali metal cation-conducting solid-state electrolyte ceramics encompassed by the dividing wall W and separates these from one another. It is a feature of the invention that the two parts R1 and R2 are secured to one another by at least one securing element BR at the edge element RR and at least one securing element BT at the separating element RT.

Abstract

The invention relates to the electrodialytic production of ammonia and sulfuric acid from ammonium-sulfate-rich (waste) waters. An object of said invention was to provide a process for recovering ammonia and sulfuric acid from waters containing ammonium sulfate in high concentrations. The process should be practicable on an industrial scale and have good energy efficiency. This problem is solved by a combination of electrodialysis and water electrolysis. It results in ammonium sulfate being split back into ammonia and sulfuric acid. Unlike conventional three-chamber processes, the process of the invention employs a cell having only two compartments, which can however be multiply parallelized within the stack. This type of scale-up is much more cost-effective than connecting multiple cells in parallel.

The invention is characterized in that the middle chamber comprises internals. The electrolysis cell according to the invention solves the problem that a concentration gradient forms in the middle chamber of the electrolysis cell during the electrolysis, which leads to locally lowered pH values and hence to damage to the solid-state electrolyte. The internals result in vortexing of the electrolyte solution as it flows through the middle chamber during the electrolysis, which prevents the formation of a pH gradient.

Abstract

It is an object of the invention to specify an electrically heatable reactor for hydrogen cyanide production and the production of other nitriles, which enables a differentiated temperature profile and works with inexpensive standard components. The core of the inventive apparatus (0) is a chamber (1) made from gas-permeable, thermally insulating material that constitutes the actual reaction space. Electrical heating elements (5) project into the chamber (1), such that the chamber (1) can be heated from the inside by heating elements (5). The electrical terminals of the heating elements are outside the reaction space but within the surrounding shell. Unlike in the case of the industrially implemented BMA process, the heat is thus not transported into the reaction space from the outside but generated in the reaction space. Heat is generated by conversion of electrical energy by means of the heating elements (5) by the principle of resistance heating. In order to ensure gastightness of the apparatus (0), a shell (9) is provided, which surrounds the chamber (1) in a gastight manner.

Abstract

The invention relates to the coating of anion exchange membranes with catalytically active substances. The catalytically actively coated anion exchange membranes are used in electrochemical cells, especially for water electrolysis. The problem addressed by the invention is that of specifying a process for coating an anion exchange membrane which can be conducted at relatively low temperatures. This problem is solved by a swelling step. Aside from the swelling step and the processing temperature, the sequence of the process according to the invention resembles a decal process. However, the use of the partly liquid swelling agent means that the process according to the invention can be considered to be a wet process. The process enables the processing of anion-conducting polymers at moderate temperatures. The anion-conducting polymers may be present in the anion exchange membrane and/or in the composition that is applied to the anion exchange membrane. The advantage of the process according to the invention is that it can be conducted at comparatively low temperatures, namely below 100°C.

Abstract

A process for catalytic hydrogenation of aromatic amines can be performed. The aromatic amines can be methylenedianiline and/or tolylenediamine. The ring-hydrogenated equivalents can be obtained by contacting an input product, which have the aromatic amines and impurities, such as, alcohols, glycols, polyols, organic acids and/or water, with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst. The catalyst can be platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, nickel, cobalt and/or iron. The catalyst is applied to a support, wherein the input product that has aromatic amines result from a PU decomposition process and contains impurities from this decomposition process.
