Technical field
The present invention relates to carbon nano-tube material field, particularly relate to the method that in carbon nanotube batch production, tail gas recycle utilizes.
Background technology
Carbon nanotube is as monodimension nanometer material, and it is lightweight, and hexagonal structure connects perfect, has many abnormal mechanics, electricity and chemical property.Going deep in recent years along with carbon nanotube and nano materials research, its wide application prospect also constantly shows.Because carbon nanotube has the structure of hollow, minisize mould can be used as.The i.e. material such as filler metal, oxide compound therein, can prepare the wire etc. of the thinnest nanoscale, in the molectronics device in future or nanoelectronics device.Also can make plastics, carbon nano-tube reinforced ceramic matrix material, metal-base composites that carbon nanotube strengthens, the thinnest test tube and can " nano balance " that single atomic mass be weighed etc. can also be made.
At present, produce carbon nanotube in batches and use CVD(chemical vapour deposition) method.Namely, under the effect of the temperature of 600 ~ 1000 DEG C and catalyzer, carbonaceous gas raw material (as methane, ethene, propylene and benzene etc.) is made to decompose a kind of method preparing carbon nanotube.But utilizing CVD to produce in batches in carbon nanotube, the utilization ratio of carbon raw material gas only has about 30%, and due to a variety of causes, major part all directly enters air with the form of tail gas, does not collect recycling.Both raw material was wasted, again to the pollution that air creates.
How effectively collecting recycling batch production carbon nanotube and the tail gas that discharges, is industry problem demanding prompt solution.
Summary of the invention
The present invention, in order to solve the problems of the technologies described above, propose the recoverying and utilizing method of tail gas in a kind of simple and easy production of carbon nanotube easily, to improve the utilising efficiency of raw material, reduces tail gas to the pollution of air.
The recoverying and utilizing method of tail gas in a kind of carbon nanotube batch production that the present invention proposes, comprises following processing step:
Step 1: collect the tail gas prepared carbon nanotube and produce, and make its temperature be reduced to 25-35 DEG C by condenser system;
Step 2: cooled exhaust collection is input to first gas-holder;
Step 3: by a compressor, inputs a gas separator by the tail gas in gas-holder with flow A, the invalid gas filtration in tail gas is fallen, and drain with flow D by this gas separator;
Step 4: the gas after filtering out invalid gas through gas separator is input to second gas-holder with flow B;
Step 5: finally the gas in second gas-holder is inputted in Reaktionsofen together with the unstripped gas (total flux of these two kinds of gases is C) preparing carbon nanotube and prepare carbon nanotube as raw material, unstripped gas inputs in Reaktionsofen with flow E;

1, the raw material of more than 60% can be saved, thus reduce the cost of carbon nanotube.
2, the dispersing property of carbon nanotube can be improved.
3, the pollution to air can be reduced.
Embodiment
The recoverying and utilizing method of tail gas in a kind of carbon nanotube batch production that present pre-ferred embodiments proposes, it adopts following processing step:
Step 1: make its temperature be reduced to 25-35 DEG C by condenser system in the tail gas preparing carbon nanotube generation, exhaust gas component mainly contains methane, carbon 2, carbon 3, hydrogen etc.
Step 2: cooled exhaust collection is inputted that first volume is 1000L, rated operating pressure is the gas-holder of 2.0Mpa.
Step 3: by a power of motor be 8KW, exhaust pressure is the compressor of 1.9Mpa, tail gas in gas-holder is inputted with flow A the gas separator that a volume is 15L, rated operating pressure is 20Mpa, by this gas separator by the invalid gas in tail gas, as hydrogen, filter out, and discharge with flow D.Described flow A is the flow of 10-15m/h.
Step 4: will filter out the gas after invalid gas through gas separator, inputs with flow B the gas-holder that second volume is 1000L, rated operating pressure is 2.0Mpa.Described flow B is 8-13m/h.
Step 5: finally the gas in second gas-holder is inputted in Reaktionsofen together with the unstripped gas (total flux of these two kinds of gases is C) preparing carbon nanotube and prepare carbon nanotube as raw material.Described flow C is 13-18m/h.Unstripped gas inputs in Reaktionsofen with flow E.
In removal process, the value of described flow A, flow B, flow C, flow D and flow E, should meet: the relation of A-D=B=C-E.In the present embodiment, flow A is 12.5m/h, and flow B is 10.5m/h, and flow C is 15.5m/h, calculates, flow D=flow A-flow B=2m/h according to above-mentioned relation formula; Flow E=flow C-flow B=5m/h.In like manner, in other embodiments, e.g., when flow A is 10m/h, flow B is 8m/h, when flow C is 13m/h, calculates flow D=2m/h; Flow E=5m/h.Or when flow A is 15m/h, flow B is 13m/h, when flow C is 18m/h, calculates flow D=2m/h; Flow E=5m/h.The pressure during work of gas-holder is so made to maintain normal scope a: 1.0-1.2Mpa.Otherwise pressure crosses the tolerance range that conference exceeds tank body, so that produce potential safety hazard; The too small meeting of pressure causes deficiency of air, the unstripped gas preparing carbon nanotube is reduced, thus reduces the output of carbon nanotube.
Adopt batch making carbon nanotube of the present invention, the raw material of more than 60% can be saved, thus reduce the cost of carbon nanotube.Tail gas after recovery, as a part of unstripped gas, has a certain amount of hydrogen in this part gas, adds a small amount of hydrogen in unstripped gas, when preparing carbon nanotube, the dispersing property of carbon nanotube can be made to improve.The performance of product promotes to some extent, and product with stable quality, respond well after on probation, now become a part for formal production technique.The pollution to air can also be reduced in addition.
