Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for avoiding corrosion in a plant, in which a liquid is enriched with micro sacrificial anodes made of magnesium by means of a reaction process in a reactor which is supported electrolytically.
- Corrosion damage to water supply systems is a major economic problem. According to a report by the Association of German Property Insurers, more than half of all reported water damage in the building services sector is due to corrosion. There are estimates that approximately 5-8% of an industrialized nation's national income is destroyed annually by corrosion. This estimate does not take into account the secondary energy losses to be set as much higher. B. caused by cross-sectional constricting rust bulbs in pipes or rust deposits on heating surfaces.
- a liquid is enriched with magnesium ions.
- the term liquid in the meaning used here includes liquids with a water content, in particular drinking water and process water.
- the liquid must remain in a special anode chamber for a longer time, as a rule more than 30 minutes, or through several chambers or connected to one another in a row Container flow.
- Storage tanks with volume are used to process even smaller volume flows (> 2m 3 / h) of several hundred liters necessary.
- magnesium disintegrates according to fractal laws, colloids containing clusters being formed in layers.
- the resulting reactive particles contain a variable proportion of undamaged, ie metallic Magnesium in the cluster center, unused magnesium in the intermediate layer as a solid compound of the sum formula Mg 2 O, which is embedded in a root structure, together with oxide hydroxide of magnesium, and a relatively good (meta) stability in water, especially with low conductivity having.
- the outermost colloid layer is linked with magnesium hydroxide and possibly magnesium carbonate with the former, formed and, with small colloids and from conductivities above approx.
- the estimated diameter for these aggregated colloids is approximately 250-600 ⁇ m, the primary particles probably alone containing approximately 2,000 univalent and probably also metallic, ie intact but redox-active particles.
- the object of the invention is to provide an improved method for preventing corrosion with the aid of micro sacrificial anodes made of magnesium and a device for carrying out the method in which an intended decomposition reaction of a magnesium anode is promoted and an enrichment of a liquid with the Micro sacrificial anodes is increased.
- the object is achieved by a method according to claim 1 and an apparatus according to claim 8.
- the invention comprises the idea of applying a periodic current to the anode and cathode. This supports the formation of micro sacrificial anodes that are both mobile and redox-active and effectively prevent corrosion in a system. By using the periodic current, both the anode reactions and the corresponding associated cathode reactions are promoted.
- An advantage of the invention is that due to the use of the periodic current, both a pulse current density, a pulse time and a time between two pulses can be selected independently of one another. With a method according to the state of the art, which uses a constant direct current, however, only an average current density can be selected. This has proven to be non-functional. Because the parameters pulse current density, pulse time and time between the two pulses can be freely selected, it is possible to easily adapt to inexactly predictable variables such as flow velocity, hydrodynamic conditions, liquid analysis, etc. by changing these electrical parameters.
- a time-periodic current means that, in comparison to the use of a direct current, as is provided in the prior art, a transpassive metal resolution is already possible at a lower average current density, which is necessary for the formation of the desired redox-active particles, namely the mobile ones Micro sacrificial anodes made of magnesium, is required.
- the number of mobile micro sacrificial anodes formed can be selected to be so high that a corroded downstream pipe system can be remediated.
- the periodic current is used, the heavy metal contamination of the liquid associated with any corrosion, in particular in lead or copper pipes, is also avoided.
- a further development of the method provides that the time-periodic current is formed as a sequence of rectangular pulses.
- An advantage of this development is that a rectangular pulse current can be generated electronically with simple means.
- Another embodiment provides that the liquid is introduced tangentially to a side inner wall of the interior of the container in the interior of the container in order to generate a cyclonic movement of the liquid in the interior of the container. This has the advantage that the liquid travels a longer way in the interior and is thus in contact with a cathode surface for longer, which promotes electrolytic cathode reactions and thus an intended decomposition of the anode.
- An advantageous further development of the method for avoiding corrosion consists in that the liquid is introduced by tapering a cross section in an inlet of the container in the interior of the container, so that a turbulent flow is generated in the interior of the container.
- a turbulent flow promotes the rapid removal and delivery of particles contained in the liquid in a diffusion layer on the cathode, which leads to an improvement in the reaction kinetics of the cathode reactions.
- An expedient development of the invention provides that a flow signal is generated by means of a flow detector as a function of a throughput of the liquid through the container, and the application of the periodic current to the anode and the cathode is controlled by a control device as a function of the flow signal. This ensures that decomposition of the anode in micro sacrificial anodes is only supported when liquid is removed by means of the periodic current. In this way, optimal utilization of an anode material is achieved.
- Another embodiment of the method provides that ions dissolved in the liquid are removed in a cation exchanger before the liquid is introduced into the interior of the container.
- ions dissolved in the liquid are removed in a cation exchanger before the liquid is introduced into the interior of the container.
- hard liquids i.e. H.
- Liquids with an alkaline earth metal content of more than 2 mmol / 1 are possible, which would otherwise fail due to secondary reactions of the liquid.
- Another expedient development consists in dividing the liquid into a partial flow and a further partial flow by means of a separating device, the partial flow flowing through the cation exchanger and the container and the partial flow with the micro- Sacrificial anodes are enriched and combined with the further partial flow, which is bypassed the cation exchanger and the container in a bypass tube. It is advantageous that the container for the enrichment of the liquid with micro sacrificial anodes only has to be designed for a subset of the total amount of liquid that flows through the entire system. The container can thus be smaller than in a method which does not use a diversion of the further partial flow past the cation exchanger and the container.
- an elongated outlet pipe is arranged in a longitudinal direction of the container in the interior of the container, one end of the outlet pipe being fixedly connected to the outlet and another end of the outlet pipe being a small distance away has a bobbin bottom of the container and the inlet is arranged on a bobbin bottom opposite end of the container.
- the cathode comprises a side inner wall of the interior of the container and an outer wall of the outlet tube. This can save a separate cathode. A compact construction of the container becomes possible.
- a further development of the invention is that a minimum distance of the anode from the outer wall of the outlet tube is equal to a minimum distance of the anode from the inner side wall of the interior of the container. In this way, an optimal current density field is formed in the liquid in the interior of the container during the application of the periodic current to the anode and the cathode to promote the formation of micro sacrificial anodes and an enrichment of the liquid therewith.
- the anode comprises several rods. In this way, a surface of the anode can be enlarged compared to a cylindrical anode. Furthermore, rods can be manufactured inexpensively and are easy to handle during maintenance.
- Another embodiment of the device for preventing corrosion provides that the several rods of the anode are arranged distributed on a circle which is concentric with the inner side wall of the interior of the container, the inner side wall of the interior being cylindrical. This is a simple arrangement that ensures that all rods are equidistant from the surfaces of the cathode.
- an area ratio of a surface of the anode to a surface of the cathode is at most 1 to 4 and ideally 1 to I. This ensures that an optimal amount of magnesium is present in the device and that there is no excessive or weak decomposition of the anode, which would result in unnecessary anode wear or an inadequate corrosion protection effect.
- the inlet is arranged tangentially to the inner side wall of the interior of the container. This causes a cyclonic flow in the container, which leads to a longer residence time of the liquid in the interior of the container and requires an enrichment of the liquid with micro sacrificial anodes.
- An advantageous embodiment provides that a cross section of the inlet has a taper. This can be used to generate a turbulent flow, in particular at the cathode. The resultant rapid mass transfer and mass removal requires the cathode reactions and thus also a decomposition reaction of the anode in micro sacrificial anodes.
- Another embodiment can provide that a flow detector for generating a flow signal is arranged on the container. This enables the removal of the liquid to be monitored over time.
- Another expedient development comprises a control device coupled to the flow detector for controlling the application of the periodic current to the anode and the cathode as a function of a flow signal generated by the flow detector. This enables optimal control of the device, which leads to optimal utilization of the anode material used.
- An advantageous embodiment provides that a cation exchanger is arranged at the inlet.
- the cation exchanger prevents a liquid with a high proportion of dissolved ions from entering the interior of the container.
- a liquid with a high ion content in the interior of the container could lead to undesirable secondary reactions or changes in the chamber resistance.
- a further development of the invention comprises a separation device with an inlet, an outlet and a further outlet for dividing a liquid flow, the one outlet being in fluid communication with the outlet via the cation exchanger and the container and the further outlet with the outlet via a bypass pipe the container is in flow connection.
- This device enables only a portion of the liquid to be softened and enriched with micro sacrificial anodes.
- a container volume of the container can be designed to be smaller at a fixed daily throughput than in the case of a device which has no bypass pipe.
- control means for periodically varying the current can generate a rectangular pulse current.
- Such a control means is particularly easy to manufacture from electronic components and is therefore particularly inexpensive.

- Figure 1 shows a schematic sectional view of a device for corrosion prevention.
- a liquid 1 flows through a flow detector 2 and an inlet 3 into an interior 11 of a container 4, which is a reactor container.
- the container 4 comprises a side wall 5, a clapper base 6, legs 7 and a blind flange 8. Instead of the legs 7, a wall mounting rail can be provided.
- the flow detector 2 can also be arranged at an outlet 19 of the container 4.
- the flow detector 2 can comprise paddle or piston switch systems for a smaller container volume. For containers 4 with a nominal diameter of DN 150 or more, only calorimetric flow detectors are preferred.
- the blind flange 8 is arranged on an end 9 of the container 4 opposite the clapper base 6 and is releasably connected in a fluid-tight manner to the closure of the container 4 with the side wall 5 of the container 4.
- an outlet tap 28 is arranged, which can be used for pressure relief in the interior 11 during maintenance operations and for flushing out larger flushed-in particles.
- an anode 10 made of magnesium is arranged, which comprises rods 12.
- the bars 12 are round.
- the anode 10 is electrically insulated from the blind flange and is arranged on the blind flange 8.
- the bushings 12 are connected in an electrically conductive manner to terminals 14 via bushings 13.
- An outlet pipe 17 extends from the blind flange 8 into the interior 11 of the container 4th into it.
- One end 18 of the outlet pipe 17 is connected to an outlet 19.
- Another end 20 of the outlet tube 17 ends near the clapper bottom 6.
- An outer wall 27 of the outlet tube 17 serves as a further part of the cathode 16.
- the outlet pipe 17 and the outlet 19 Due to the arrangement of the inlet 3, the outlet pipe 17 and the outlet 19, a flow direction through the interior 11 of the container 4 is predetermined for the liquid 1.
- the incoming liquid 1 initially flows downward in the interior 11, is then deflected by the clapper base 6, in order to then flow upwards through the outlet pipe 17 to the outlet 19 and to leave the container 4 through the outlet 19.
- the outlet pipe 17 is also referred to as a deflection pipe. Because of the flow behavior, the method for avoiding corrosion, which uses the container 4 shown in FIG. 1, is referred to as the outflow-upflow method.
- a current source 21 is electrically connected to the connection contacts 14 of the anode 10 and the cathode 16 by means of electrical lines 22, 23.
- a signal line 24 connects the flow detector 2 to a control device 30, which is included in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 by the current source 21.
- the current source 21 further comprises a control means 31 for generating a time-periodic current.
- a periodic current is understood to mean any current with an amplitude that fluctuates in time around a predetermined amplitude value.
- a time-periodic current is not only a current that has the same amplitude value in each case after a fixed time interval, but rather any current in which the predetermined amplitude value occurs after each of a plurality of possibly differently long time intervals, the amplitude possibly during the plurality time intervals of different lengths are different from the predetermined amplitude value.
- a method for avoiding corrosion using the device according to FIG. 1 is described below.
- the liquid 1 flows through the flow detector 2.
- a flow signal is generated here.
- the liquid 1 is then introduced through the inlet 3 in the interior 11 of the container 4.
- the inlet 3 is arranged on the container 4 so that the liquid 1 enters the interior 11 tangentially to the side inner wall 15.
- a cyclonic flow of the liquid 1 becomes in the interior 11 causes.
- a distance covered in the interior 11 of the container 4 is lengthened by a factor of 2.8 due to the cyclonic flow.
- a residence time of the liquid 1 in the interior 11 of the container 4 is thus extended due to the cyclonal flow. This means that the time period available for enriching the liquid 1 with micro sacrificial anodes is longer.
- the inlet 3 has a taper 29 of its inner cross section.
- the flow through the taper 29 creates a turbulent flow of the liquid 1 in the interior 11 of the container 4.
- the turbulent flow particularly on the cathode surface, is deliberate and decisive.
- a metal dissolution of the magnesium of the anode 10 is required, but also a rapid sequence of associated cathode reactions.
- the cathode reactions which inevitably always take place at the cathode 16 with constituents of the liquid 1 are accelerated into a diffusion layer on the cathode 16 by rapid mass transfer and mass transfer, which is promoted by the turbulent flow.
- an external current supply of the anode 10 made of magnesium is important.
- stationary diffusion layers on the anode 10 and cathode 16 which are determined by hydrodynamics, overlap periodically periodically pulsating diffusion layers.
- the outlet pipe 19 is arranged centrally in the interior 11, which is cylindrical.
- the rods 12 of the anode 10 are arranged on a circle, the center of which is concentric with the cylindrical inner side wall 15 of the interior of the container 4.
- a radius of the circle is chosen so that a minimum distance of the rods 12 to the side inner wall 15 of the interior 11 of the container 4 is equal to a minimum distance of the rods 12 to the outer wall 27 of the outlet pipe 17.
- the current source 21 generates in cooperation with that encompassed by the current source 21 Control means 31 the periodic current with which the anode 10 and the cathode 16 are applied.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of a current-time graph of a time-periodic current to act on the anode 10 and the cathode 16.
- a current density i is plotted against a time t.
- direct current electrolysis according to the prior art, only an average current density can be freely selected. This has proven to be non-functional.
- the size of an anodic current depends on hydrodynamic conditions. Due to a low chamber resistance, which is determined by a surface 25 of the anode 10 and a surface 26 of the cathode 16 and distances between the surfaces 25, 26, the anode 10 can already with a current of 25 at voltages below 0.5 to 24V up to 1500 mA per m surface 26 of the cathode 16 in a turbulent liquid flow.
- the average current density is determined by three independently selectable parameters, a pulse current density i p , a pulse time t p and a time between two pulses t ' p .
- these individual parameters are exemplified for a rectangular pulse current.
- the duration t pp of the application of the anode and the cathode can be selected. Since the micro sacrificial anodes diffusing into the liquid 1 have to be carried away from the container 4 with a sufficiently large amount of liquid, it is advantageous to control the periodic current by means of the control device 30 (cf. FIG. 1).
- the control device 30 causes the anode 10 and the cathode 16 to be supplied with the periodic current as a function of the flow signal of the flow detector 2. It is advantageous to provide that the periodic current is only applied when the flow detector generates a flow signal, ie, a flow of the liquid 1 into or out of the container 4 is detected.
- the flow signal is transmitted to the control device 30 via the signal line 24.
- the decomposition reaction of the anode 10 strongly depends on an area ratio of the surface 25 of the anode 10 and the surface 26 of the cathode 16.
- the area ratio should be a maximum of 1: 3 to 1: 4 and ideally 1: 1.
- the area ratio of anode 10 to cathode 16 must, however, be related to a container volume of the container 4, as will be explained in more detail below, since otherwise only an insufficient number of redox-active, mobile micro sacrificial anodes will be formed or the anode will be drained too much. which necessitates frequent maintenance or frequent changing of the anode 10.
- the area ratio can be optimized by varying a nominal width of the container 4, which can be in particular between DN 80 to DN 800, and changing the length of the container.
- the container volume specifies a maximum amount that can be enriched per unit of time with a sufficient number of micro sacrificial anodes for corrosion protection.
- a day is usually chosen as the reference variable for the time unit, so that a maximum daily volume and a maximum daily throughput correspond to a container volume.
- the daily throughput for tank 4 with a nominal diameter up to DN 150 can be quantified with a factor of 280 to 400 times the tank volume.
- the daily throughput rates have to be stated with an 80 to 150 times the factor of the tank volume.
- the specified ranges are due to different operating modes, which result from simultaneity calculations for a dispensing behavior of the liquid 1 (the more consumers, i.e. the more daily throughput is generated, the fewer simultaneity factors are given).
- FIG. 3 shows an illustration of an embodiment of a device for preventing corrosion. Identical features in FIGS. 1 and 3 are designated with the same reference symbols.
- the container 4 comprises a tubular frame 32, the bobbin case 6 welded to it with the outlet tap 28 and the blind flange 8.
- the blind flange 8 is detachably and fluid-tightly connected to the tubular frame 32 by means of a seal 33 and screws 34.
- the pipe frame 32 is made from a material with a number 1.4301, the flange 8 from a material with a number 1.4541 and the fittings from a material with a number 1.4571.
- a turbulent flow in the interior of the container 4 is achieved by tapering a cross section of the inlet 3 and by introducing the liquid 1 tangentially to the side inner wall 15 in the interior 11 of the container 4.
- the tangential introduction of the liquid is made possible by the inlet 3 welded tangentially into the side wall 5.
- the embodiment according to FIG. 1 is advantageous for the container 4 with a nominal diameter of more than DN 150. If the nominal width of the container 4 is less than or equal to DN 150, as in the embodiment according to FIG. 3, it is advantageous if the inlet comprises a 90 ° pipe piece fastened to the flange 8, which is located in the interior 11 of the container 4 and whose mouth is arranged tangentially to the inner side wall 15 of the container 4.
- a device for preventing corrosion can be operated without a liquid treatment system.
- a liquid that contains more than about 2.0 mmol / 1 alkaline earth metals is referred to here as a hard liquid.
- a hard liquid or a liquid with a high lime precipitation potential at least part of the liquid 1 is softened by means of a commercially available cation exchanger before it is passed through the container 4.
- cation exchanger Usually it is only necessary to soften a partial flow of liquid 1 and to enrich it with micro sacrificial anodes.
- about 50% of the liquid has to be passed through the cation exchanger and the container 4.

- the liquid 1 is separated into a partial flow 52 and a further partial flow 53.
- the partial stream 52 passes through an outlet 64 into a cation exchanger 54 for softening the partial stream 52.
- the partial stream 52 flows through the flow detector 2 and enters the interior 11 of the container 4.
- the cathode 16 comprises the inner side wall 15 of the inner space 11 and the outer wall 27 of the outlet tube 17.
- the rods 12 arranged in the inner space 11 of the container 4 form the anode 10.
- the control device 30 is caused via the signal line 24, one To generate electricity by means of the current source 21, which is converted into a periodically periodic current by means of the control means 31.
- the periodic current is applied to the anode 10 and the cathode 16.
- the control means 31 is electrically conductively connected to the current source 21 and the anode 10 via supply lines 61 and 63.
- the liquid 1 flows around the cathode 16 and the anode 10 with a cyclonic, turbulent flow.
- the anode 10 decomposes by means of electrolytically induced fractal decay into micro sacrificial anodes which diffuse into the liquid 1 of the partial flow 52.
- the partial stream 52 enriched with micro sacrificial anodes flows through the outlet tube 17 to an outlet 19.
- the outlet 19 is connected via a diversion tube 67 to a further outlet 68 of the separating device 51, so that the further partial stream 53 is in contact with the softened, micro- Partial stream 52 enriched with sacrificial anodes combined and can enter a downstream line system.
- FIG. 5 shows a schematic strand diagram of an embodiment of the device for preventing corrosion. Identical features in FIGS. 1 to 5 are provided with identical reference symbols.
- the liquid 1 flows through a main shut-off valve 70. After flowing through a water meter 71 and a further valve 72, the liquid 1 is filtered in a filter 73. Liquid 1 is assumed to be a hard liquid.
- the liquid 1 is divided into the partial flow 52 and the further partial flow 53.
- the partial flow 52 flows through the shut-off valve 74 into the cation exchanger 54.
- the partial flow 52 is softened in the cation exchanger 54. Any softening device can be used instead of a cation exchanger.
- the partial flow 52 flows via a connecting line 75 into the container 4, in which the partial flow 52 is enriched with micro sacrificial anodes.
- the partial flow 52 enriched with micro sacrificial anodes flows through a further shut-off valve 76 to a blending valve 77.
- stream 53 which reaches the blending valve 77 via the diversion pipe 67, is combined with the partial stream 52 enriched with micro sacrificial anodes and flows into house distribution lines 78.
