摘要

1. Introduction Hydrogen energy is one of solutions for decarbonized society. Water electrolysis is promising as hydrogen production. Currently, water electrolysis with a solid polymer electrolyte membrane has been developed. The electrolysis using a cation-exchange membrane (PEM) has been widely used, while one using an anion-exchange membrane (AEM) is studied as a next-generation method with nonprecious catalysts. Hydrogen isotope separation is applied as a new application of water electrolysis. The nuclear fusion reactor ITER, which uses deuterium and tritium as fuel, will be operated around 2035 when the isotope separation/enrichment technology will be required. We have studied deuterium (D) separation by both PEM- and AEM-type. The separation ability of PEM electrolysis remarkably depended on the ratio of water supplied to the current density (stoichiometric ratio: λ) [1]. Interestingly, AEM one was better than PEM [2]. In this study, AEM electrolysis was investigated at various λ in order to improve the separation performance. 2. Experimental The electrolyte was 0.1 M KOH with 10 at% D. The D concentration was adjusted by D 2 O. The electrolyte was supplied from the lower part of only the anode side. The ready-made AEM (A201, Tokuyama) was employed as electrolyte. Pt catalyst was used as the anode catalyst and CuCoO x was used as the cathode one. The electrolysis was conducted at constant current densities or water feed at room temperature. The hydrogen gas was analyzed by a quadrupole mass spectrometer to determine the mass number ( m = 2 (H 2 ), 3 (HD), 4 (D 2 )), while the solution discharged from the anode was investigated by FTIR using the attenuated total reflection (ATR) method with a diamond prism. 3. Results and discussion Figure 1 shows the D content in hydrogen gas evolving from the cathode. In the figure, α gas indicates the separation factor, which is the ratio of protium (H) atomic concentration of the gas to the supplied water. The value of α gas decreased with decreasing λ. The present result suggests H dilution in the gas as well as PEM-type. It should be noted that AEM one could be electrolyzed and keep draining the electrolyte from the anode even at λ ≤ 4, while PEM-type discharged the almost all volume of the electrolyte from the cathode side [1]. This might be explained by the mass transportation by the diffusion and electroosmosis whose flows direction depend on the membrane type. In our presentation, the other results such as D concentration in electrolyte and pH variation depending on λ will be introduced. We will discuss the D separation mechanism by AEM electrolysis from the viewpoints of the water distribution and the mass transportation in the membrane. References K. Harada et al., Int. J. Hydrog.
