Electrolyte circulating pump working principle (the role of electrolyte circulating pump)

Under the new trend of capacity expansion in the lithium industry, in addition to positive and negative electrode materials, electrolyte is also one of the essential materials. In the lithium production process, the electrolyte circulation pump is needed to press the electrolyte into the battery stack, below we chat about the working principle and role of electrolyte circulation pump.

Working Principle

Electrolyte circulating pump is mainly composed of motor, pump body, conveying pipeline and control system, its working principle is based on the principle of centrifugal pump, through the motor to drive the impeller in the pump body rotates at high speed, forming a negative pressure area. When the electrolyte is sucked into the pump body, the electrolyte will be pushed out of the pump body due to the rotational force and transported to the specified position through the conveying pipeline. The control system can realize the functions of circulating pump opening and closing as well as flow rate control, thus realizing the accurate control of electrolyte.

The role of electrolytic circulation pump

1. circulating electrolyte electrolytic circulation pump is mainly used to circulate the electrolyte in the cooling circulation system, in the process of electrolysis, the electrolyte will release gas, if not excluded from the cycle in a timely manner, it will lead to the accumulation of gas in the system, resulting in increased system pressure and equipment failure. Electrolysis circulating pump can efficiently circulate and transport the electrolyte to ensure that the gas in the system is discharged in a timely manner, to maintain the normal operation of the system.

2. Regulate the temperature cooling circulation system needs to maintain a certain temperature range to ensure the normal operation of the equipment, electrolytic circulating pump by circulating the electrolyte transportation, can take away the heat generated in the system, and play a role in regulating the temperature. Especially in high-temperature environments, the electrolytic circulation pump can effectively take away the overheated electrolyte, to maintain the system temperature stabilized within the safe range.

3. Maintain the liquid level balance electrolytic circulating pump in the cooling circulation system also plays a role in maintaining the liquid level balance. In the electrolysis process, the electrolyte is constantly consumed, and if it is not replenished in a timely manner, the liquid level will be lowered, affecting the operation of the system. By circulating the electrolyte, the electrolytic circulation pump can replenish the electrolyte in time to maintain the liquid level balance and ensure the normal operation of the system.
