With the rapid development of the times, black technologies continue to emerge, such as hydrogen production cups, which are becoming increasingly high-tech from generation to generation. Focusing on the latest scientific research, let's take a look at the new technology of "hydrogen oxygen separation" in hydrogen production cups.
Before explaining the technology of hydrogen oxygen separation, let's first understand the micro electrolysis of water used in traditional hydrogen production cups for hydrogen production. Electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen is the process of introducing direct current into an electrolytic cell filled with electrolyte, causing water molecules to undergo electrochemical reactions on the electrode and decompose into hydrogen and oxygen. Adding hydrogen to water has a strong reducing function, which can neutralize reactive oxygen species (free radicals) in the body's blood and cells.
What is hydrogen oxygen separation
By using split cell electrolysis technology, the ozone and residual chlorine generated during the electrolysis of hydrogen from ordinary hydrogen water cups are discharged to the outside, thereby increasing the hydrogen concentration in the water and enhancing the performance of hydrogen water on the human body.
Technical Principle
Hydrogen oxygen separation technology, abbreviated as SPE electrolysis hydrogen production technology, replaces the original alkaline electrolyte with a solid polymer electrolyte such as proton exchange membrane, and the electrocatalyst particles are directly attached to the membrane to form a membrane electrode group.
The membrane electrode assembly is an active electrode (catalytic substance) embedded on both sides of a solid polymer electrolyte membrane. The solid polymer electrolyte membrane, also known as SPE membrane, is a proton exchange membrane that only allows protons and water to pass through. The electrochemical reaction of water during hydrogen production occurs on the membrane electrode, serving as both a membrane and an electrode.
Water undergoes an electrolytic reaction at the anode of the power supply, producing hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen loses electrons at the anode (blue area on the right in the figure) and becomes hydrogen ions, which can hydrate and pass through the proton membrane to reach the cathode (blue area on the left in the figure). Oxygen cannot pass through and can only be discharged outward. After reaching the cathode of the power source, hydrogen ions obtain electrons from the cathode and recombine to form hydrogen gas. At the same time, some water is also carried to the cathode.
Simply put, the hydrogen molecule water film electrode enhances the stability and durability of the internal electrode. By using hydrogen oxygen separation technology, hydrogen and oxygen are separated, and oxygen is discharged from the bottom. High purity hydrogen is injected into the water, resulting in higher hydrogen purity and hydrogen content in the water!
