Electroplating is basically the process of plating a metal onto the other by hydrolysis mostly to prevent corrosion of metal or for decorative purposes. The process uses an electric current to reduce dissolved metal cations to develop a lean coherent metal coating on the electrode. Electroplating is often applied in the electrical oxidation of anions on a solid substrate like the formation of silver chloride on silver wire to form silver chloride electrodes.

Electroplating is majorly applied to modify the surface features of an object (eg: corrosion protection, lubricity, abrasion), but the process can also be used to build thickness or make objects by electro forming.

Uses of Electroplating:-

Talking about the uses of electroplating, apart from enhancing the appearance of the substrate it is used in various other purposes as well. The major application is to optimize a material’s resistance towards corrosion. The plated layer often serves as a sacrificial coating which reveals that it dissolves before the base substance.

Some of the other common applications of electroplating involve:

Improving wear resistance.

Improving the thickness of the metal surface.

Enhancing the electrical conductivity like plating a copper layer on an electrical component.

Minimizing Friction.

Improving surface uniformity.

Electrodeionization (EDI), also known as continuous deionization (CDI), is a hybrid separation process combining ion-exchange resins with ion-exchange membranes. The EDI gained increasing attention for removal/recovery of ions from water. There are different types of applications for the EDI on the removal and concentration of various species from Effluent streams. The aim of this paper is to give a brief overview of those studies.

Applications have shown that EDI process:-

A.   Very efficient in environmental protection

B.    Production of ultra pure water

C.   The recovery of some valuable species

D.   Normally, weakly-ionized species, such as carbon dioxide and boron are difficult to remove via such membrane processes as Reverse Osmosis and Electrodialysis Reversal (EDR).

Benefits of Electrodeionization:-

The continuous removal of these species to a very high degree.

The main technological parameters determining the efficiency of an EDI module are the current strength

The flow velocity in the dilute and concentrate compartments, temperature, and TDS (in both initial and purified water).

Electroplating is basically the process of plating a metal onto the other by hydrolysis mostly to prevent corrosion of metal or for decorative purposes. The process uses an electric current to reduce dissolved metal cations to develop a lean coherent metal coating on the electrode. Electroplating is often applied in the electrical oxidation of anions on a solid substrate like the formation of silver chloride on silver wire to form silver chloride electrodes.

The Anode and Cathode:-

In electroplating practice, the current is usually introduced from an external source and the anode is the positive electrode and cathode is a negative electrode. The cathode is the electrode where the electrochemical reduction reaction occurs. The anode is that where the electrochemical oxidation reaction occurs.

The electroplating process uses an anode and a cathode. In electroplating, the metal dissolved from the anode can be plated onto the cathode. The anode is provided with direct current, oxidizing and dissolving its metal atoms in the electrolyte solution. At the cathode, the dissolved metal ions are decreased and the metal is placed on the product.

There are major factors that influence the plating. These include:

The voltage level of current.

The temperature and chemical composition of the bath.

The current length of time.

The distance between the cathode and the anode.

Uses of Electroplating

Titanium (Ti), Zirconium (Zr), Niobium (Nb) and Tantalum (Ta) are the valve metals that form stable thin oxide layer on the surface which protects the underlying metals from further corrosion in most of the harsh environments.Their superior corrosion resistance along with the hardness make these metals suitable for various industrial applications. Acidic fluoride media are encountered in nuclear reprocessing and in mud acid treatment of oil-well bores, and valve metals and their alloys are recommended as material of construction in these applications.

Although valve metals exhibit an excellent corrosion resistance in most media, they are attacked by acidic fluoride media or concentrated acids. The extent of corrosion of these valve metals depends on the solution composition, and in the case of their alloys, the material composition as well. For example, in boiling nitric acid, Zircaloy is reported to exhibit higher corrosion resistance than commercially pure (CP) Ti, Ti-Ta and Ti-Ta-Nb.

Electrodialysis is a separation process using ion-exchange membranes and an electrical potential as a driving force. Ion-exchange membranes contain charged functional groups and may be synthesized as homogenous or heterogeneous membranes. In these structures, the charged groups are either chemically bonded to or physically mixed with a polymer matrix. The backbone provides the necessary strength and dimensional stability of the membrane. Furthermore, monopolar ion-exchange membranes can be classified in two types, that is, anion-exchange membranes and cation-exchange membranes.

Features of Electrodialysis Application :-

a.   Recovery rate of water is usually over 90% and can minimize the wasting of water resources.

b.   Salinity of the product water can be set at any level and operation is quite easy even when the salinity of the raw water is increased beyond the designed level.

c.    Installation and running costs are quite economical when the salinity of the raw water is from several thousand ppm TDS.

d.   Actual experience fixes the temperature limit up to 60°C.

e.    Membrane is durable under strong acid conditions and also has a wide pH range under alkaline conditions.

f.     Since ion-exchange membranes do not substantially permeate silica (SiO2) there is no limit on the amount of dissolved silica in the water to be processed.

The Tubes of the warming components of an infrared broiler have a restricted piece of their perimeter covered with a blend containing platinum. The platinum covering gives an intelligent surface to guide infrared radiation towards the item to be warmed inside the broiler. The warming component tubes covered with platinum give considerably a similar execution and are fundamentally more affordable to fabricate than customary warming component tubes with a gold intelligent covering.

Major Advantages:-

Titanium is its low cost, particularly when considering its lower density. The titanium is its poor conductivity; approximately 5 times less than niobium and 50 times less than copper. Low conductivity makes titanium poorly suited for long wire lengths and restricts its use to larger diameter, shorter anodes.

Material Considerations in Platinum Anode Design:-

Niobium (Nb): High cost, high breakdown potential, fair conductivity.

Titanium (Ti): Low cost, low breakdown potential, poor conductivity.

Platinum (Pt): High corrosion resistance, high cost, good conductivity.

Type of Anodes:-

1.    Platinum Plated Niobium Tube Anode

2.    Platinized Niobium Rod Anode

Why are Platinum electrodes used in electrolysis?

1. Electrolysis is the process of passing the electric current in a solution that will chemically affect the solution.

2. This chemical change will further lead to the loss or gain the electrons in the solution.

3. Platinum is the metal that belongs to the periodic table, and it belongs to the noble metal group.

4. Noble metals mainly include Gold, Silver, Iridium, and Platinum.

5. Platinum is used in an electrochemical cell as it is resistant to oxidation.

6. It is less reactive so it does not easily react with any chemical substance.

7. It will also not take part in the redox reactions, that occur in an electrochemical cell.

Platinum plated anode and Platinum Plated titanium cathodes are using in ionization machine or process. We, Tiaano supplied Platinized anodes and Platinized cathodes for ionization industry to Indian and abroad customers. Ionization process takes place on passing of the current through the electrodes. The dissolved minerals get attracted either to the positive or negative electrode, therefore one of the chambers will have acidic water while the other will have alkaline water. The alkaline water is for drinking purpose, whereas the acidic water is for disinfecting or sterilizing purposes.

Why Platinum Plated Anodes required for Ionization Process?

Platinum is an impetus, and is expected to accelerate the electrolysis. With the water ionizers changing the water so definitely by ignoring the water the terminals, the ionization cycle wouldn't happen without a speeder-upper.

The Platinised Titanium cathodes make the ionization, the terminal cell is the core of an ionizer. It comprises of a progression of cathodes (plates), each isolated by a layer. The Platinized Titanium Mesh Anode is for the most part utilized, on the grounds that it has remarkable down to earth execution, for example, solid capacity of ionization discharge, great trade of electrolyte, close design and light weight, and so on.
