Abstract

The invention discloses a composite anode for hydrometallurgy and a preparation method and application thereof. The composite anode structure is a metal substrate / non-oxide intermediate layer / selective electrocatalytic oxygen evolution layer, wherein the non-oxide intermediate layer can isolate oxygen from diffusing to the metal substrate to avoid passivation of the metal substrate; the selectiveelectrocatalytic oxygen evolution layer can selectively catalyze the oxygen evolution while suppressing the depletion of Mn2+ in the electrolyte. The composite anode can be used in the electrochemicalmetallurgical process of metallic zinc, manganese, copper and other non-ferrous metals. When used in the electrodeposition of metallic manganese, the current density of the cathode and anode and theelectrowinning without diaphragm can be realized, the energy in the electrowinning process is greatly reduced, the oxidation loss of Mn2+ at the anode is suppressed, and the cathode current efficiencyis improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrometallurgy, and in particular relates to a composite anode for nonferrous metal electrodeposition, a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] In the smelting of non-ferrous metals, more than 80% of non-ferrous metals in the world are produced by wet process. However, the energy consumption of the electrowinning process in hydrometallurgy is relatively high, accounting for about 80% of the total energy consumption. The main reason for the high energy consumption of the electrowinning process is that the traditional Pb-based alloy anode has been used in the electrolytic system, and its oxygen evolution overpotential is close to 1V, which increases the unnecessary power consumption by nearly 1000kWh / t-Zn, accounting for about 1000kWh / t-Zn of the electrowinning process energy consumption. 30% of. In addition, the traditional Pb-based alloy anode also has the following d...
