MMO Titanium Anode for Metal Electrowinning

In the electrowinning industry, lead dioxide anode and Mixed Metal Oxide (MMO)anode are the two common choices. However, the lead dioxide anode are found of these disadvantages: heavy environmental pollution, high energy consumption, fragile, hardly to produce into various shapes, coating is easily to drop off.

With environmental concerns increasing and pollution stringent control,  MMO anodes become widely used in  the metal electrowinning industry since this MMO titanium anode for metal electrowinning offer a cleaner alternative and significant power savings over  lead dioxide anode.

This MMO anodes are exclusively used in the  metal recovery system. The system is composed of  the deposition of an electrolytic cell at the cathode, in the metal you want to obtain. MMO coated Titanium Anodes that are immersed in a fluidised bed of non-conducting particles , this ensures that there are high levels of mass transport and low power requirements. The metal recovery system is used for the efficient recovery of metals from dilute solutions where conventional electrolysis cannot be considered.

The metals that can be recovered by this method are copper, nickel, zinc and cobalt, and used in the recovery of cyanide-based electrolytes of gold, silver, copper, zinc and cadmium  cyanide is electrochemically destroyed, due to the enhanced anode efficiency. Different metals plate out at different voltages so application if the different voltages will allow all metals to be recovered from a mixed metal effluent.

Elade is able to supply both new anodes and the recoating and repair service for anodes used for all of these processes, in particular the formulation of the coating for sulfate, has been designed to have a long duration and a low energy consumption.

MMO titanium anode for water heater and water tank

MMO titanium anode for water heater and water tank

Water heaters or water tanks always come with sacrificial anodes such as magnesium or aluminum rod and thay are the most common type. However, there are some obvious disadvantages of these sacrificial anodes, for example:big volume, short longevity and they are helpless with the smelly odor.

The powered anode which usually is MMO titanium anode. It solves these problems and it is becoming a trend for the water heater and water tank. This MMO titanium anode for water heater can be a permanent replacement for a sacrificial one. It replaces the sacrificial reaction by feeding electrical current into the tank by way of an electrode. The device plugs into a wall socket. We often recommend them for smelly water situations where sacrificial anodes may not help.

The Mixed Metal Oxide (MMO) titanium anode works as auxiliary anode, water heater  or water tank works as cathode, they forms a protection system in the water of water heater which also service as conducting medium. When electricity pass through electrode, the Cl- in water moves towards anode and concentrate there, the Cl- in the cathode side will become dilution. The water heater tank as cathode in reductive environment, this can shorten the corrosion speed of tank and expand its life span.

For the MMO titanium anode for water heater , it usually is a MMO wire anode, because it is small in volume and less in weight. While the MMO titanium anode for water tank usually is MMO rod anode become the voltage for the water tank is bigger than the water heater. The platinized anode also can be used for water tank but it is more valuable in price.  

Shaanxi Elade New Material Technology Co.,Ltd is one of the leading China water heater anode manufacturers, and with professional factory we are able to provide you high quality water heater anode with good price. Welcome to wholesale products from us.

MMO Wire Anode Water Heater Anode Exchange

Electrical water heater may leak water and electricity after using for a while, this is mostly for the reason that the magnesium rod is consumed but not replaced in time, the water heater tank become corrosion and perforation. In general, electric water heaters magnesium rod must be replaced every two years. Because of the water quality differences, some water heater may run out of use less than one year. Short life span, frequent replacement makes the cost increase. The principle reason of water heater tank corrosion is Cl- corrosion in water. The water quality all over China is different and it is difficult to find an efficient protection method.

The MMO Wire Anode for Water heater provided by our company as auxiliary anode, water heater works as cathode, they forms a protection system in the water of water heater which also service as conducting medium. When electricity pass through electrode, the Cl- in water moves towards anode and concentrate there, the Cl- in the cathode side will become dilution. The water heater tank as cathode in reductive environment, this can shorten the corrosion speed of tank and expand its life span.

Wire Anode Application

Canistered anodes;

Continuous horizontal ground bed;

Discontinuous vertical ground bed;

Above ground storage tanks;

Underground storage tanks;

Electric cable shielding;

Water storage tanks;

Water treatment equipment.

The biggest advantage of the MMO Titanium Wire Anode is the high gas evolution potential, basically no gas evolution at the cathodic protection potential (protection potential at -850 Mv, generally preferable to -1.2 V, vs. CSE, relative to the Cu/saturated and CuSO4 reference electrode), which eliminates the security risks. It also has other advantages such as low current density, superior power saving, excellent stability, strong combination of coating and substrate and long working life.

Another of our unique advantage in MMO titanium wire anode is the preparation of the raw material, which is specially developed by the three generations of engineers based on the practical working conditions. We have self-owned technology to create the anode active additive for Ruthenium compounds, Iridium compounds and Platinum compounds specially used for the anode field. We also cooperate with BAOTI Group, Western Metal Materials and BAO Steel Group to produce the Titanium material for anode based on the international criteria, the whole process is well controlled during smelting, ingot casting and rolling plate. This titanium material has higher corrosion potential, the surface is not easy to harden which increase the coating times on the substrate and then reduce the cost. We have taken the more advanced technologies of Electrostatic Coating, Isothermal Pressure and Special Gas Bias to ensure even coatings, by which the activity and longevity are assured.
