- the metal content evaluation value of a certain electrode is high and the impurity evaluation value is low, this means that the metal content of that electrode is maintained, but sufficient performance cannot be achieved due to the adhesion of impurities. It can be evaluated as follows. Through this kind of evaluation, it is possible to decide whether to extend the life of the electrode by increasing its metal content or by removing impurities.

- the operation history information of the electrolytic cell 30 may be recorded over time. As shown in FIG. 4B, current density, operating voltage, operating temperature, and other conditions that may change over time can be stored as information over time. It has been found that the remaining amount of noble metal coating on the electrode gradually decreases even when the electrolyzer 10 is operating normally. Therefore, by recording driving history information as time-dependent information in this way, the metal content evaluation value of the electrode may be estimated more specifically.
- the impurity evaluation value of the electrode may be estimated more specifically by recording driving history information.
- such data on the operating history over time may include evidence of stoppage periods and reverse current.
- reverse current will be explained.
- the electrolysis cell 31 can cause a self-discharge reaction through a leakage current circuit formed by the electrolyte supply piping when electrolysis is stopped.
- the self-discharge reaction is called a reverse current because the direction of the current flowing through the current-carrying surface is opposite to that during electrolysis.
- the electrode of the electrolytic cell 31 is oxidized and reduced in the process of generating a reverse current, and the catalyst layer on the surface of the base material may fall off, which may severely affect the amount of precious metal coating remaining.
- the negative electrode 35 tends to be more affected by the reduction in the amount of noble metal coating remaining due to such reverse current.
- a reverse current may also occur when the current density is extremely reduced. Specifically, when a positive electrolytic current and a reverse current are compared and the reverse current is larger, a reverse current may occur. Data on driving history over time may include evidence of such reverse current.
- the information regarding the electrolytic solution in the operation history information of the electrolytic cell 30 may include information regarding the type and amount of impurities in addition to the composition of the electrolytic solution. If the electrolyte contains impurities, the impurities may adhere to the electrodes. Impurities adhering to the electrodes affect the operation of the electrolyzer 10 and also affect the amount of precious metal coating remaining on the electrodes. Therefore, by recording information regarding the electrolytic solution as driving history information in this way, the behavior of decreasing the amount of noble metal coating remaining on the electrode may be estimated more specifically. In particular, the influence of the reduction in the remaining amount of precious metal coating due to such impurities tends to be greater on the anode 33.
- the management unit 154 records usage history information of the electrodes included in the electrolytic cell based on the operation history information of the electrolytic cell. More specifically, the management unit 154 acquires operational history information of the electrolytic cell from the control unit 70 of the electrolyzer 10, records the acquired operational history information in electrolytic cell data, and records the recorded operational history information. Based on this, recording of usage history information of electrodes included in the electrolytic cell may be performed. Note that the destination from which the management unit 154 of the device 100 acquires the operation history information of the electrolytic cell is not limited to the control unit 70 of the electrolytic device 10.
- the management unit 154 may further record the metal content evaluation value of the electrode and the impurity evaluation value of the electrode as usage history information.

- 5C is a graph showing the amount of metal remaining in the electrode after the electrolyzer 10 is further operated from the state shown in FIG. 5B.
- the remaining amount of precious metal coating tends to gradually decrease as the electrolytic device 10 operates. Therefore, it is possible to estimate the remaining amount of noble metal coating on the electrode based on operation history information such as how long the device was operated and under what conditions (voltage, current, etc.).
- FIGS. 5A to 5C it has been found that in the case of a bipolar electrolytic cell, the degree of reduction in the remaining amount of noble metal coating varies depending on the position of the electrolytic cell. More specifically, it has been found that the electrolytic cell located in the center of a bipolar electrolytic cell tends to have a smaller amount of precious metal coating remaining. This is because when the electrolyzer 10 is repeatedly operated and stopped, reverse current is more likely to occur in the electrolytic cell located in the center.
- the evaluation is performed by weighting the degree of decrease in the remaining amount of precious metal coating according to the cell position. You may do so. More specifically, the remaining amount of noble metal coating may be evaluated by adjusting the electrolytic cell located in the center of the bipolar electrolytic cell so that the degree of decrease in the remaining amount of noble metal coating becomes greater. This makes it possible to collectively estimate the amount of noble metal coating remaining on the electrodes of the electrolytic cells even in the case of having a large number of electrolytic cells such as a bipolar electrolytic cell.

- the repair history includes repainting the catalyst layer on the electrode of the electrolytic cell, or replacing the electrode or the electrolytic cell itself, the time when the electrolytic cell was repaired or replaced should be noted.
- the degree of decrease in the remaining amount of precious metal coating from that point may be calculated by setting it as 100%. Thereby, the remaining amount of precious metal coating can be individually evaluated even for electrolytic cells that have a history of repair.
- the calculation process of the metal content evaluation value executed by the management unit 154 is not particularly limited, but for example, a formula for calculating the metal content evaluation value of the electrode is calculated using values included in the driving history information as variables. Examples of methods used include: More specifically, the formula for calculating the metal content evaluation value includes values that indicate the total amount of operation such as total operating time and total energization amount, and steady state values such as operating voltage, operating temperature, current density, and type of electrolyte. One example is one in which variables are values indicating operating conditions.
- Such a formula is generated by machine learning processing based on learning data that includes information on the operating history and information on the metal content evaluation value of the electrodes of each electrolytic cell of the bipolar electrolytic cell that has undergone the operating history.

- the phenomenon curve refers to a curve that shows a tendency for the metal content evaluation value to increase as it approaches the edges and decrease as it approaches the center, as shown in FIGS. 5B and 5C. .
- the electrolytic cells located at the ends and the center of the bipolar electrolytic cell are surrounded by a square with a broken line as the electrolytic cells from which the actual measured data is obtained, and the actual measured data considered by the management unit 154 is It shows that it includes actual measurement data of the metal content evaluation values of the electrodes of the electrolytic cells located at the ends and center of the electrolytic cell.
- the reduction curve is not limited to this but can be estimated if there is actual measurement data of at least two arbitrary electrolytic cells. More specifically, if it is known in advance that a reduction curve can be obtained, and if there is actual measurement data for electrolytic cells at two arbitrary locations, the metal content evaluation value actually measured by the electrolytic cells at those two locations can be calculated. It is possible to fit a decreasing curve that satisfies Further, in FIG. 5B, a plurality of electrolytic cells are collectively surrounded by a rectangle with a broken line, but the present invention is not limited to this, and as long as there is actually measured data of at least one electrolytic cell at two locations, the reduction curve can be fitted.

- the management unit 154 may predict the metal content evaluation value of the cathode based on operation history information including information regarding reverse current. This makes it possible to predict the metal content evaluation value in consideration of the decrease in the metal content evaluation value at the cathode due to the occurrence of a reverse current as shown in FIG. 5E.
- the management unit 154 may predict the metal content evaluation value of the anode based on operation history information including information regarding impurities in the electrolytic solution. If the electrolyte contains impurities, the impurities may adhere to the electrodes. Impurities adhering to the electrodes affect the operation of the electrolyzer 10 and also affect the amount of precious metal coating remaining on the electrodes. In particular, the anode 33 tends to be more affected by the reduction in the amount of noble metal coating remaining due to such reverse current. Therefore, by recording information regarding the electrolyte as driving history information in this way, it becomes possible to predict the metal content evaluation value of the electrode.
- the management unit 154 may predict the metal content evaluation value for each of the anode and cathode. As mentioned above, although the decreasing trends in the metal content evaluation values may not match for the anode and cathode, it is possible to more appropriately estimate the precious metal content by predicting the metal content evaluation values for the anode and cathode respectively. Can be done.
- the metal content evaluation value predicted by the management unit 154 may include the remaining coating amount of a noble metal selected from the group consisting of ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, and platinum. Since these metals function as the main active species in the catalyst layer of the electrode, it is useful to non-invasively evaluate the remaining amount of these rare metals.
- a noble metal selected from the group consisting of ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, and platinum. Since these metals function as the main active species in the catalyst layer of the electrode, it is useful to non-invasively evaluate the remaining amount of these rare metals.

- the future performance of the electrode may differ depending on the nature of the repair.
- FIG. 7B depending on the usage history information, an evaluation result in which there is no difference in effectiveness between repair A and repair B, which had a difference in effectiveness in FIG. 7A, is assumed.
- FIG. 7C depending on the usage history information, an evaluation result may be assumed in which the effect of repair B, which had a difference in effect in FIG. 7A, is no longer different from that of the case without repair.
- the effect of repair is not limited to extending the life of the electrode performance as shown in FIGS. 7A to 7C, but may have the effect of temporarily improving performance as shown in FIG. 7D.
- repair A and repair B may have different effects on future performance, or the difference in effectiveness may decrease between no repair and repair. Conditions such as this may occur. For example, if the metal content evaluation value of a certain electrode is high and the impurity evaluation value is low, this means that the metal content of that electrode is maintained, but sufficient performance cannot be achieved due to the adhesion of impurities. It can be evaluated as follows. By doing so, it is possible to grasp the situation where repair A, which removes impurities, has a certain effect, but repair A, which increases the amount of metal, is less effective, and to select a more appropriate repair content. Or, is the degree of decrease in metal content within a range that can be recovered with simple treatment (repair B) or is it within a range that can be recovered with fundamental treatment (repair A)? You can also evaluate points.

- the operation proposal unit 158 may propose operating conditions for the electrolytic cell 30. Specifically, the driving proposal unit 158 can propose driving conditions for increasing current efficiency based on usage history information.
- the electrolytic cell 30 In the electrolytic cell 30, movement of ions in the electrolytic solution, transfer of electrons on the electrode surface, and generation of substances accompanying this occur.
- the substance involved in this electrolytic reaction is not limited to the target substance. Therefore, it is desirable to increase the current efficiency with respect to the target substance.
- the "current efficiency" in the electrolytic cell 30 refers to the ratio of the amount of material actually produced to the theoretical maximum amount of material produced by a certain amount of electricity in the electrolytic cell.
- the target substances are, for example, chlorine gas and hydrogen gas in the case of salt water electrolysis, and oxygen gas and hydrogen gas in the case of alkaline water electrolysis.
- High current efficiency means that much of the electricity used is used to generate the desired substance, such as hydrogen gas.
- the operating conditions of the electrolytic cell 30 be such that the desired electrolytic reaction is carried out with as high a current efficiency as possible.
- the operation proposal unit 158 proposes operation conditions including voltage conditions and electrolyte flow conditions based on usage history information. Good too. Note that the operating conditions are not limited to these, and may include other conditions such as the concentration of the electrolytic solution and temperature conditions.
- the usage history information may include a metal content evaluation value. At this time, the usage history information becomes information that reflects the amount of active species in the electrode. Further, the voltage condition is a value that controls the amount of current flowing between the electrodes. Further, the flow rate condition of the electrolytic solution is a value that controls the amount of ions that exchange electrons with the electrode and the contact efficiency between the electrolytic solution and the electrode. Suitable values for other operating conditions may vary if the amount of active species in the electrode differs. That is, based on the metal content evaluation value, the operation proposal unit 158 selects voltage conditions and conditions under which the movement of ions in the electrolytic solution and the transfer of electrons on the electrode surface proceed more appropriately and the current efficiency is increased. The electrolyte flow rate conditions can be proposed as at least operating conditions.

- repair factors refer to factors that do not require immediate repair but may lead to performance deterioration, such as deterioration of partition walls or a decrease in metal content evaluation value.
- the electrolytic cell 30 is a huge device and requires time to stop for repairs and restart operation, so in order to maximize the operating efficiency of the electrolytic cell 30, it is better to stop the electrolytic cell 30 less frequently. Also from the viewpoint of the influence of the reverse current on the metal content evaluation value, the fewer the number of stops, the better.
- the stop suggestion unit 159 may propose a stop condition for the electrolytic cell 30. Specifically, the stop suggestion unit 159 can propose a stop condition under which the amount of metal in the electrode is unlikely to decrease, based on the usage history information.
- the electrode of the electrolytic cell 31 is oxidized and reduced during the process of generating a reverse current, causing the catalyst layer on the surface of the base material to fall off and the amount of metal in the electrode to be extremely affected. There are cases.
- the reverse current is due to a self-discharge reaction through the leakage current circuit formed by the electrolyte supply piping when electrolysis is stopped.
- the stop proposal unit 159 does not suddenly reduce the voltage applied to the electrolytic cell 30 to 0V, but gradually reduces the voltage to gradually attenuate the current flowing through the electrolytic cell 30 and then , a current attenuation condition in which the voltage applied to the electrolytic cell 30 is 0V may be proposed as the stop condition.
- a current attenuation condition in which the voltage applied to the electrolytic cell 30 is 0V may be proposed as the stop condition.
- the stop proposal unit 159 provides the anode chamber 10 and the cathode chamber 10 in order to quickly expel generated gas such as chlorine gas involved in the reaction of the reverse current from the anode chamber 10 and the cathode chamber 20.
- a condition for increasing the flow rate of the electrolytic solution supplied to the chamber 20 may be proposed as a stopping condition. The higher the flow rate of the electrolyte supplied to the anode chamber 10 and the cathode chamber 20, the further downstream the generated gas generated at the electrodes will be. Thereby, reverse current can be suppressed compared to the case where the voltage is set to 0V in a state where more produced gas is mixed in the electrolytic solution in the anode chamber 10 and the cathode chamber 20.
- the stop proposal unit 159 can propose conditions for attenuation of the current and conditions for increasing the flow rate of the electrolytic solution based on usage history information such as the metal content evaluation value. Specifically, in consideration of the fact that reverse current is more likely to occur in the central portion and the amount of metal in the electrode is small, the stop proposal unit 159 sets the current attenuation condition in accordance with the portion where the amount of metal in the electrode is small. You may. Similarly, in consideration of the fact that reverse current is more likely to occur in the central portion, the stop proposal unit 159 increases the flow rate of the electrolyte to match the portion where the metal content of the electrode is small. Conditions may be set.
- the stop proposal unit 159 can estimate a portion where a reverse current is likely to occur based on the distribution of the amount of metal in the electrode.
- the operation of the electrolytic cell 30 can be stopped under stop conditions that make it more difficult for reverse current to occur.
- the control section 70 of the electrolytic cell 30 adopts the stop conditions proposed by the stop proposal section 159, so that the current efficiency of the electrolytic cell 30 can be maintained high from a long-term perspective, and the yield can be further increased. Can be done.
- the suppression of reverse current achieved by the stoppage proposal unit 159 is also related to extending the life of the electrolytic cell 30.
- the electrolytic cell 30 is a huge device, and as shown in FIGS. 5A to 5C, in the case of a bipolar electrolytic cell, the degree of reduction in the amount of metal in the electrodes varies depending on the position of the electrolytic cell 90. Easy to occur. Although such a difference in the amount of metal in the electrodes can be tolerated to some extent, if the difference becomes large and the amount of metal in the electrodes of some electrolytic cells 90 becomes smaller than a predetermined value, the operation will be stopped, Repairs to that part will be required.
- the electrode metal content of other electrolytic cells 90 has also become considerably smaller. Due to the condition, it may be necessary to immediately stop operation and carry out repairs. If such repetition occurs, the number of stops will increase, so it is preferable that the difference in the degree of reduction in the amount of metal in the electrode depending on the position of the electrolytic cell be small.
- the suppression of reverse current achieved by the stop suggestion unit 159 makes the degree of decrease in the amount of metal in the electrodes more uniform depending on the position of the electrolytic cell 90, and avoids the situation where only some electrodes are repaired. This contributes to extending the life of the electrolytic cell 30 during operation.
- the stoppage proposal unit 159 may propose a stop condition based on the difference in the configuration of the electrolytic cell 30. It is assumed that the electrolytic cells 30 are different in scale, electrical system specifications, electrolyte feeding specifications, and the like. Therefore, the stop proposal unit 159 can suppress the reverse current more effectively by proposing stop conditions that take these into consideration.
- the position change proposal unit 161 selects electrolytic cells 90 with a relatively high remaining amount of precious metal coating and electrolytic cells 90 with a relatively high remaining amount of precious metal coating, based on usage history information. It may be proposed to change the position of the electrolytic cell 90, which has a relatively low value, in the electrolytic bath.
- the usage history information of the electrolytic cell 90 may vary depending on the location.
- the usage history information of the electrolytic cell 90 may vary depending on the location.
- other electrolytic cells 90 will also have a metal content. Since the evaluation value has become considerably small or the impurity evaluation value has become considerably large, it may be necessary to immediately stop operation and perform repairs.
- the electrolytic cell 90 with a relatively high metal content evaluation value or a relatively low impurity evaluation value will be referred to as a "first cell.” Further, the electrolytic cell 90 having a relatively low metal content evaluation value or a relatively high impurity evaluation value will be hereinafter referred to as a "second cell”.
- the first cell is placed at a position where the amount of metal tends to decrease or the amount of impurities tends to increase
- the second cell is placed at a position where the amount of metal tends to increase. It is placed at a position where the amount of impurities is difficult to decrease or increase. If the system is restarted with this arrangement, the difference in metal content and impurity content between the first cell and the second cell can be resolved.
- the position change proposal unit 161 proposes a combination of the first cell and the second cell to be replaced based on the usage history information indicating the degree of reduction, that is, the amount of metal and impurity, so that the entire electrolytic cell 30 can be replaced. As a result, it is possible to eliminate differences in the amounts of metals and impurities and keep the amounts of metals and impurities more uniform.
- the position change proposal unit 161 avoids the situation where only some electrodes are repaired and extends the length of the electrolytic cell 30, as described in the stop proposal unit 159. Contributes to longer service life and operation.

プログラム。
図1Aは、本実施形態の電解槽を構成する電解セルの一例を断面模式図として示したものである。電解セル90は、陽極室10と、陰極室20と、陽極室10及び陰極室20を隔離する隔壁29と、陽極室10に設置された陽極11と、陰極室20に設置された陰極21と、を備える。1つの電解セル90に属する陽極11及び陰極21は互いに電気的に接続されている。
電解セルが有する電極の貴金属コーティング残量は電解装置の運転とともに少しずつ減少する。その減少の程度は、運転時間や運転電圧などの運転条件、逆電流の発生などの運転トラブルなどによって影響を受ける。また、多数の電解槽が連なった複極式の電解槽を備える電解装置においては、その電解槽における電解セルの位置によって発生する逆電流の大きさなどが異なったりするため、電解槽における電解セルの位置によって、貴金属コーティング残量の減少の程度も異なる。
図3を参照しつつ、装置100のハードウェア構成について説明する。装置100は、例えば、プロセッサ110、通信インターフェース120、入出力インターフェース130、メモリ140、ストレージ150、及びこれらの構成要素を相互接続するための1つ又は複数の通信バス160を含む。
電解槽データ153は、電解槽30に関する情報や、電解槽30の運転履歴情報が、電解槽ごとに、格納していてもよい。図4A及び図4Bを参照しつつ、ストレージ150に記憶される電解槽データ153について説明する。
管理部154は、電解槽の運転履歴情報に基づいて、電解セルが有する電極の使用履歴情報を記録する。より具体的には、管理部154は、電解装置10の制御部70から、電解槽の運転履歴情報を取得すること、取得した運転履歴情報を電解槽データに記録すること、記録した運転履歴情報に基づいて、電解セルが有する電極の使用履歴情報を記録すること、を実行してもよい。なお、装置100の管理部154が電解槽の運転履歴情報を取得する先は、電解装置10の制御部70に限られない。
管理部154が実行する予測処理について説明する前に、貴金属コーティング残量の減少傾向について、図5A~図5Eを参照して説明する。
管理部154が実行する金属量評価値の算出処理は、特に限定されないが、例えば、運転履歴情報に含まれる値を変数として、電極の金属量評価値を算出する式を用いる方法が挙げられる。金属量評価値を算出する式としては、より具体的には、総運転時間や総通電量などの運転した総量を示す値や、運転電圧、運転温度、電流密度、電解液の種類などの定常運転時の条件を示す値を変数としたものが挙げられる。
管理部154が実行する不純物評価値の算出処理は、特に限定されないが、例えば、運転履歴情報に含まれる値を変数として、電極の不純物評価値を算出する式を用いる方法が挙げられる。不純物評価値を算出する式としては、より具体的には、総運転時間や総通電量などの運転した総量を示す値や、電解液の種類やそれに含まれる不純物の種類や量など運転時に不純物の要因となる値を変数としたものが挙げられる。また、不純物評価値には、不純物による電極の表面被覆率や、不純物の付着厚みと言った指標が含まれてもよい。
評価部157は、電極の使用履歴情報に基づいて、電極の将来のパフォーマンスを評価してもよい。また、評価部157は、電極の使用履歴情報と、行う予定の補修方法と、に基づいて、補修後の電極の将来のパフォーマンスを評価してもよい。
学習部156は、運転履歴に関する情報と、該運転履歴を経た電解槽の各電解セルが有する電極の金属量評価値又は不純物評価値に関する情報と、を含む学習用データ155に基づいて、機械学習処理を行い、学習済みモデルを得てもよい。このようにして得られる学習済みモデルは、管理部154が使用するモデルとなり、運転履歴に関する情報を入力とし、該運転履歴を経た電解槽の各電解セルが有する電極の金属量評価値又は不純物評価値に関する情報を出力とするものであってもよい。
運転提案部158は、電解槽30の運転条件を提案してもよい。具体的には、運転提案部158は、使用履歴情報に基づいて、電流効率がより大きくなるようにするための運転条件を提案することができる。
停止提案部159は、電解槽30の停止条件を提案してもよい。具体的には、停止提案部159は、使用履歴情報に基づいて、該電極の金属量が減少しにくい停止条件を提案することができる。
電解槽30が複数の電解セル90を備える場合には、位置変更提案部161は、使用履歴情報に基づいて、貴金属コーティング残量が相対的に高い電解セル90と貴金属コーティング残量が相対的に低い電解セル90の、電解槽における位置の変更を提案してもよい。
次に、本実施形態に係る装置の動作について説明する。図8は、本実施形態に係る装置が実行する処理の一例を示すシーケンス図である。
図9A~図9Cに、本実施形態の装置の使用態様の一例を示す。まず、図9Aに示すように、販売元から販売先へ電解槽を備える電解装置10を販売または貸与する。そして、販売先が電解装置10を使用すると、装置100は、ネットワークNを介して、電解槽の運転履歴情報を取得し、それに基づいて、装置100の管理部154が、電解セルが有する電極の使用履歴情報を記録する(ステップS802,S803)。
