1. A gas-liquid separation apparatus, comprising:
a tank, wherein an inlet is formed in a middle of the tank, a hydrogen outlet is formed in a top of the tank, and a processing chamber connected to the inlet and the hydrogen outlet is further formed in the tank; and
a flow reducing component, wherein the flow reducing component is formed in the processing chamber and maintained above the inlet, the flow reducing component forms a flow reducing space and a flow partition chamber in a part of the processing chamber above the inlet, a gas-liquid initial separation space is formed in the processing chamber at a position below the flow reducing component, the flow reducing component forms at least one connection hole and a connection channel, the flow partition chamber is arranged to be connected to the flow reducing space through the at least one connection hole, the gas-liquid initial separation space is connected to the flow partition chamber through the connection channel, the flow reducing space is arranged to be connected to the hydrogen outlet, the flow reducing space and the flow partition chamber are coaxially formed in the processing chamber, the flow reducing component comprises a transverse partition wall and a partition cylinder, an edge of the transverse partition wall is sealably mounted on an inner wall of the tank, the partition cylinder has a vertical sidewall and a top sealing wall, the vertical sidewall extends towards the hydrogen outlet in the top, the top sealing wall is arranged to cover a top of the vertical sidewall, the flow reducing space is formed in an upper space between the vertical sidewall, the top sealing wall, the transverse partition wall, and the inner wall of the tank, for storing clear water, the connection hole is formed in a bottom of the vertical sidewall, the flow partition chamber is formed between the vertical sidewall and the top sealing wall of the partition cylinder and the transverse partition wall, the flow reducing component comprises a connection member, a bottom of the connection member is arranged in a middle of the transverse partition wall and extends towards the flow partition chamber, the connection channel is formed in a middle of the connection member, the connection member extends in a vertical direction, and a gas outlet is formed in an end of the connection member in the flow partition chamber, wherein the flow reducing space is arranged to be pre-filled with a predetermined amount of clear water, the connection hole is set to be submerged by the clear water, after the hydrogen mixed with a mist-like electrolyte that needs to be separated enters the processing chamber via the inlet, the hydrogen mixed with the mist-like electrolytet is directed to the gas-liquid initial separation space, so as to be preliminarily separated, and then the hydrogen mixed with the mist-like electrolytet flows upward through the connection channel and flows downwards into the flow partition chamber via the gas outlet of the connection member, a liquid level of the clear water in the flow reducing space increases while a water level of the clear water in the flow partition chamber decreases to expose the connection hole, the hydrogen mixed with the mist-like electrolyte enters the clear water located in the flow reducing space via the connection hole, so as to be washed in the flow reducing space, so that the electrolyte in the hydrogen mixed with the mist-like electrolyte is mixed into the clear water while the washed hydrogen is allowed to flow out of the hydrogen outlet.
