Abstract
In the production of space rocket technology, electrochemical processes are used, as a result there is pollution of sewage by metal ions. The strict requirements of environmental authorities do not allow sewage, containing metal ions with concentration exceeding the maximum permissible values, to be discharged directly into reservoir or sewers. The greatest difficulties are caused by the purification of water from hexavalent chromium.
The proposed methods for purifying from hexavalent chromium, electrocoagulation method, galvanocoagulation method, sorption methods, combined methods, have some disadvantages, such as: significant energy consumption, significant consumption of soluble metal anodes, passivation of the anodes, need for large excesses of reagent (iron salts), large amounts of precipitate and the complexity of its dehydration, high cost and scarcity of sorbents, high consumption of reagents for the regeneration of sorbents, and others.
This work shows equipment for experiments, including a diaphragm electrolyzer with a coaxial arrangement of electrodes. Formulas for calculating the chromium ions flux due to migration and diffusion are presented. The difference between the calculated amperage from the practical one is 25 %, and the theoretical degree of purification from the real one is 4 %, which confirms the effectiveness of the proposed cleaning method.
The concentration of chromium anions was determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The degree of purification of water from chromium ranged from 84 to 96 %. The highest degree of purification (96 %) was obtained with an electrolysis duration of 29 minutes.
