Popis: Iron compounds are widely used in many industries and engineering, and even in medicine. The existing methods of obtaining iron compounds are multi-stage and complex. The purpose of this work is to obtain iron (II) hydroxide and oxide from metal waste under alternating current action using one and two half-cycles. For the first time, the electrochemical behavior of iron electrode was studied by electrolysis method during alternating current polarization of industrial frequency in sodium chloride solutions. The iron polarization was carried out in pair with titanium, while the current density on the iron electrode varied in the range of 200-1200 A/m2, and on the titanium is in the range of 20-100 kA/m2. It is established that in the anode half-cycle of alternating current, iron is oxidized to form divalent ions. At this moment, the titanium electrode is in the cathode half-cycle, hydrogen is released on it, hydroxyl ions are formed in the cathode space. In the solution, ions interact with iron (II) ions to produce iron hydroxide. At temperatures above 600C, iron (II) hydroxide is dehydrated with the production of iron (II) oxide. The electrolysis was carried out in two electrolyzers connected to each other in parallel with the immersion of pair of “titanium-iron” electrodes into each electrolyzer. The iron dissolution occurs simultaneously in two half-cycles of alternating current and this approach is proposed for the first time. The process productivity increases by more than 1.5 times.
