Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the electrochemical properties develop DSA electrode for sewage sludge solubilization. Using Ir as a main catalyst, the catalyst selected for the sewage sludge solubilization durability and proceeds to functional electrode suitable for sewage sludge electrolysis experiment were obtained the following results. Less mass reduction of the sintering temperature of the main catalyst, Ir coated electrodes, the endothermic reaction zone $300^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$, which was selected from a range of experiments. The efficiency of the catalyst results came up to $350^{\circ}C$ best. Each Binder stars (Ta, Sn, W) in this experiment was the biggest catalyst efficiency at $350^{\circ}C$. Used as a binder, $TaCl_5$, $SnCl_4$, $WCl_6$ of the Ta and without affecting the other characteristics of the main catalyst than Sn, W. For the 50% $IrO_2$ electrode is 1.4 V (vs. Ag / AgCl) in a current of about $29mA/cm^2$ was caused to evaluate the effectiveness of the electrode.

본 연구에서는 하수슬러지 가용화를 위한 불용성전극을 개발하여 전기화학적 특성을 확인하였다. 이리듐을 주촉매로 사용하여 하수슬러지 가용화에 적합한 촉매를 선정하여 내구성이 우수하고 하수슬러지 전기분해에 적합한 기능성 전극 실험을 진행하였고 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 전극의 코팅 소성온도를 주 촉매인 Ir의 질량감소가 적고, 흡열반응 구간인 $300^{\circ}C$부터 $500^{\circ}C$까지의 범위로 선정하고 실험을 하였다. 실험결과 $350^{\circ}C$에서 촉매의 효율성이 가장 우수하게 나왔다. 각각의 바인더 별(Ta, Sn, W) 실험에서도 $350^{\circ}C$에서 가장 큰 촉매효율성이 나타났다. 바인더로 사용한 탄탈럼, 주석, 텅스텐 중 탄탈럼이 다른 금속보다 주 촉매의 특성을 그대로 유지시키며 전극의 효율성을 향상시키는 것을 확인하였다. 50%$IrO_2$ 전극의 경우 1.4 V(vs. Ag/AgCl) 약 $29mA/cm^2$의 전류가 발생하여 전극의 효율을 평가하였다.
