Integral Electrolytic Cell

The integral electrolytic cell is an electrolyte storage tank and a main equipment in non-ferrous hydrometallurgy. According to different applicable metal types and production processes, it is divided into copper electrolytic cells, copper electrowinning cells, zinc electrowinning cells, nickel electrolytic cells, cobalt electrolytic cells, lead electrolytic cells, manganese electrolytic cells, copper removal cells, nickel solution-making cells, etc.

The super electrolytic cell produced by Hebei Aoliande Chemical Equipment Co., Ltd. is integrally cast at a specific temperature using modified vinyl ester resin and high-quality quartz sand. The super electrolytic cell consists of a corrosion-resistant layer, a structural layer composed of polymer concrete reinforcing aggregates, and an outer surface layer.

Advantages of Integral Electrolytic Cells

1.Long service life

The vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell uses vinyl ester resin and quartz sand aggregates. All materials are anti-corrosive, so it has a long service life. The production process adopts integral casting, effectively solving the problems of stress contraction and linear expansion of assembled cells, etc.

2.High strength

The electrolytic cell is integrally cast at a specific temperature using vinyl ester resin and quartz sand as base materials. The compressive strength is > 80 MPa, which is more than 2.5 times that of the traditional cement + FRP electrolytic cell. It can effectively solve the damage caused by the collision of the anode and cathode during the use of the electrolytic cell.

3.Reduce the floor area and save the investment in the plant and support beams

The vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell has high strength, which can reduce the thickness of the electrolytic cell wall from the current 115-150mm to 70-100mm. In addition, due to the precise structural size and low thermal expansion coefficient of the vinyl ester resin electrolytic cell, the cell spacing of the electrolytic cell can be reduced from 30mm to less than 20mm. Therefore, in the same production area, 6-10% more electrolytic cells can be arranged, or 6-10% of the plant area can be saved. The thickness of the support beams of the electrolytic cell can be reduced by at least 20% compared to the traditional electrolytic cell support beams.

4.Maintenance-free and improve the utilization rate of the electrolytic cell

The vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell has reliable quality, strong corrosion resistance and high strength, achieving maintenance-free performance. It enables enterprises to avoid the waste of manpower, material resources and time caused by frequent maintenance, solving problems such as cell deformation, leakage, endless repair and replacement.

5.Good dimensional accuracy, easy installation and adjustment

The vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell is integrally cast in one time using molds, with good integrity, high dimensional accuracy and accurate embedded parts. It can be hoisted in place and leveled. The installation is simple and easy to adjust, greatly shortening the installation period and providing a good installation environment. There is no toxic dust caused by on-site grinding of the traditional FRP lining.

6.Improve product quality

The vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell is anti-corrosive as a whole, solving problems such as damage to other material electrolytic cells that were not found, resulting in electrolyte penetration and CaSO4 (calcium sulfate) pollution that affects the quality of the cathode plate. It can reduce the corrosion of electrolytic cell accessories caused by electrolyte leakage of the electrolytic cell.

7.Purify the environment and reduce the amount of cleaning water

The vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell has a long service life and is maintenance-free. The traditional FRP lining needs to be replaced and redone after several years. The replaced FRP will not degrade and will adhere to the electrolyte, causing environmental pollution and the loss of valuable metals. The corners of the electrolytic cell through optimized design are all arc-shaped, which requires less water and shorter cleaning time when cleaning the cell.

8.Can improve current efficiency

The reinforcing ribs of the structural layer of the vinyl ester resin integral casting electrolytic cell do not use steel bars, and there is no eddy current generated on the cell wall under the condition of strong current electrolysis. Coupled with its good insulation, its current efficiency will also be improved.

9.Short maintenance time, easy operation and no need for professional handling

When the electrolytic cell is scratched or cracked during abnormal use (such as the fall of the anode and cathode plates, etc.), rinse it with clean water, dry it with a hot air blower or infrared baking lamp, chisel a V-shaped notch at the crack with a pointed drill or small hammer, fill it with vinyl ester resin material, and it can be put back into production after curing at room temperature for 2 hours and drying.
