Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing ethylene and oxalic acid from acetylene by a bipolar electrochemical technology. The method comprises the following steps that 0.5 to 2.0 mol / L of electrolyte is added into an electrolytic tank with an isolation membrane, a negative pole and a positive pole and then undergoes electrolysis under the conditions of a room temperature and current density of 40 to 140 mA / cm<2>; acetylene gas is fed into a negative pole chamber and a positive pole chamber simultaneously, wherein acetylene gas in the negative pole chamber undergoes an in-situ reduction reaction with reducing agent hydrogen atoms or hydrogen produced by the electrolysis to produce ethylene, and acetylene gas in the positive pole chamber undergoes an in-situ oxidation reaction withoxidizing agent oxygen atoms or oxygen produced by the electrolysis to produce oxalic acid; and unreacted acetylene-hydrogen mixed gas discharged from the negative pole chamber and unreacted acetylene-oxygen mixed gas discharged from the positive pole chamber are circularly fed respectively into the negative pole chamber and the positive pole chamber for re-reaction. The method simplifies reaction processes, shortens reaction time, saves energy, does not produce secondary pollution and is an environmentally friendly reduction and oxidation synthesis method.
