Title:
燃料電池の電極を構成する触媒層から貴金属を回収する方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4501706
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

To provide a method for recovering a noble metal, which is a catalyst, from a catalyst layer of a used fuel cell with high efficiency at high purity and by a simple operation.

The catalyst layer is taken out of a membrane-electrode assembly of the fuel cell and after the catalyst layer is pulverized, the powder is put into an electrodeposition liquid composed of a polar solvent (for example, acetonitrile) and a basic compound (for example, triethylamine) and is subjected to electrophoresis. Carbon powder is ionized and is deposited on the electrode 2. The noble metal is recovered by a means, such as filtration, from the electrodeposition liquid separated from the carbon powder.
