MMO titanium anode for water electrolysis; how much does titanium anode recycling cost?
Titanium anodes play a crucial role in the industrial field. They are also known as titanium-based metal oxide coatings (MMO), and have a more professional name - DSA anodes. This titanium anode is actually the key component that acts as an anode in the titanium-based metal oxide coating.
It is worth noting that depending on the catalytic coating used on the surface, titanium anodes are endowed with different functional characteristics. One of them has chlorine evolution function and can effectively achieve chlorine evolution under certain conditions, which plays an irreplaceable role in many chemical production processes. For example, in the chlor-alkali industry, chlorine gas and caustic soda and other important chemical products can be produced on a large scale through the chlorine evolution reaction. Another has the function of oxygen evolution, which plays a key role in the process of water electrolysis and can promote the evolution of oxygen from oxycompounds.
When this titanium anode has been used for a long time and reaches the scrap standard, there is still a metal coating on its surface. These remaining metal coatings are not worthless waste. On the contrary, they endow the scrapped titanium anode with high recycling value. The recycling value mainly depends on the type of coating metal and the corresponding content. Since different types of metals have different prices and scarcity in the market, the recycling price will also vary greatly.
Generally speaking, the recycling price range is relatively large, ranging from several hundred yuan per kilogram to several thousand yuan per kilogram. For example, if the coating metal contains more rare and valuable metal components, then its recycling price will tend to be in the higher range of several thousand yuan per kilogram; On the contrary, if the main component of the coating metal is relatively common and the market price is more affordable, then the recycling price may be at the level of several hundred yuan per kilogram.
