Description

Full-flow method and device for thermochemical zinc-sulfur-iodine cycle coupling methane hydrogen production
Technical Field
The invention relates to a technology for hydrogen production by coupling zinc-sulfur-iodine circulation with methane, belongs to the technical field related to hydrogen production by thermal circulation, and particularly relates to a full-flow method and a full-flow device for hydrogen production by coupling thermochemical zinc-sulfur-iodine circulation with methane.
Background
With the rapid increase of global economy and the massive utilization of fossil fuels, global warming is an important environmental problem which people have to face at present, and low carbon development becomes a common consensus of all countries. In order to cope with global warming climate problems, various countries have raised targets for carbon dioxide emission reduction. To solve the problem fundamentally, developing and utilizing new energy and renewable energy is a feasible way according with the development trend. The hydrogen energy is one of the cleanest energy sources, and not only is the hydrogen itself non-toxic and harmless, but also the product in the utilization process is only water, and no pollutants such as carbon dioxide and the like are discharged. The energy density of the hydrogen energy is large, and the conversion efficiency is high. Besides being used as an energy source, hydrogen is an important chemical raw material. More than half of the hydrogen is used in the important chemical processes of ammonia synthesis, petroleum cracking and the like in the world every year. Hydrogen is a secondary energy source and needs to be produced by a primary energy source. The traditional Sulfur Iodine (SI) cycle was first proposed by the American atomic energy (General Atomics) company in the 1970 s and consisted essentially of a three-step reaction:
SO2 + 2H2O +I2 = H2SO4 + 2HI (85℃)
2H2SO4 = 2SO2 +2H2O + O2 (850℃)
2HI = H2 + I2 (450℃)。
the zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating system is added with ZnI2Synthesis and ZnI2-CO2The reaction step comprises the following chemical reactions:
ZnO + 2HI = H2O + ZnI2
ZnI2 + CO2 = ZnO + I2 + CO (>800℃)。
the zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating system has the following general reactions:
H2O + CO2 = CO + H2 +O2
the zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating system comprises four subsystems, namely a Bunsen reaction subsystem and H2SO4Decomposition subsystem, HI decomposition subsystem, ZnI2And (4) subsystems. First, sulfur dioxide and iodine react with excess water in a Bunsen reaction to form a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and hydroiodic acid. Under the condition of excessive iodine, the solution can spontaneously generate liquid-liquid stratification. The upper light phase solution is a sulfuric acid phase, mainly a sulfuric acid solution. The lower heavy phase is the hydroiodic acid phase (HIx) and will also contain small amounts of sulfuric acid impurities. Since the separated HIx solution contains impurities, and the impurities have a great influence on the subsequent process, the purification treatment of the acid solution is required. After purification, the HIx phase solution needs to be concentrated to increase the HI concentration. Rectifying and separating by a conventional rectifying tower, allowing the tower bottom residue to be high-concentration HI solution, then introducing into an HI decomposition reactor to decompose into hydrogen and iodine elementary substances at about 450 ℃, and introducing unreacted HI gas into ZnI2Subsystem, first of all reacting with ZnO to synthesize ZnI2Synthetic ZnI2With CO2Reaction at 800 deg.C to form ZnO, CO and I2. ZnO returns again to react with HI to generate ZnI2。H2SO4The phases are similar to the operation of the HIx phase, and after concentration, the H phase is introduced2SO4Decomposition of the reactor to SO2、O2And H2O, thereby forming a complete closed loop. Under the condition of an external proper heat source, only H needs to be continuously added2O and CO2H can be generated2、O2And CO. Meanwhile, the whole system can avoid the problem of hydrogen-oxygen separation, and the separation of CO belongs to gas-solid separation and is easy to operate. However, the traditional zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating hydrogen production system needs a high-temperature environment, has extremely high requirements on stable and high-quality heat sources, and causes energy waste due to huge temperature difference among units. At the same time, continuous input of high-purity CO is required2But, however, doIs the existing CO2The cost and energy consumption of the trapping technology are both at a high level. Therefore, the traditional zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating hydrogen production system is limited by a heat source place and high in cost, and cannot be popularized and applied on a large scale.
The current published technical and literature documents are studied on the thermochemical cycle hydrogen production and methane reforming hydrogen production processes, wherein patent CN108821315A discloses a thermochemical cycle mineralization of CO2Simultaneous decomposition of H2O system H2Method and apparatus for recycling hydrogen production with CO2Mineralization is organically combined, but the HI solution is concentrated by an electrodialysis method, so that the requirement on the corrosion resistance of an electrode material is extremely high, and the manufacturing cost is high; the electrolytic cell is limited in volume, so that large-scale industrial application is difficult to realize, and meanwhile, the problem of the source of a high-temperature heat source is not solved, so that industrial site selection is greatly limited, and specific implementation equipment is lacked. Patent CN102583239B provides a thermochemical cyclic decomposition of CO2And H2O to CO and H2The method and the device realize CO2The purposes of emission reduction and hydrogen production are achieved, but the highest heat source temperature (less than 900 ℃) is high in requirement, the heat source is required to be combined with other heat sources in various forms such as solar energy and nuclear energy, the site selection is greatly limited, the safety is greatly challenged, and the existing CO has the advantages that2The commercial application of capture technology still faces economic problems due to its high cost and energy consumption. Patent CN108715438A discloses thermochemical cycle mineralization of CO2Simultaneous decomposition of H2O system H2Coproduction of H2SO4Method of innovatively mixing CO2The mineralization technology is organically combined with the thermochemical sulfur-iodine open-loop circulating water decomposition for hydrogen production, and CO is mineralized and fixed under mild reaction conditions2Simultaneous production of H with high added value2And H2SO4However, it requires continuous replenishment of large amounts of SO2And does not address the source of high temperature heat sources. The patent CN102464299B provides a method for producing hydrogen by reforming methane steam with a fluidized bed, which effectively protects the activity of a catalyst for producing hydrogen by reforming and simplifies the process flow, but the methane steam is heavyThe whole hydrogen production is a strong heat absorption process, needs to provide a large amount of heat from the outside in the presence of a catalyst and is accompanied by CO2Emission, but also H2And the separation of CO. CN101559924B proposes a hydrogen production process by methane steam reforming, wherein methane, steam and an adsorbent are mixed in a mixer and then enter a reactor for reaction, and a catalyst is arranged in the reactor. The reacted gas and the adsorbent leave the reactor to be separated, part of the separated adsorbent is calcined and regenerated, the other part of the adsorbent is removed and supplemented with an equal amount of fresh adsorbent, and the fresh adsorbent and the adsorbent from the regenerator enter the mixer to be mixed together, so that continuous operation and separation of the catalyst and the adsorbent are realized, but the fresh adsorbent needs to be continuously supplemented, a large amount of heat needs to be provided from the outside, and the CO is accompanied by2And (4) discharging.
The thermochemical cycle hydrogen production process has high hydrogen production efficiency and no CO2And the discharge is beneficial to carbon neutralization, so that the thermochemical cycle is expected to be a clean, economic and sustainable large-scale hydrogen production method. However, the traditional thermochemical cycle process is limited by a high-temperature heat source, and cannot be popularized on a large scale; and from H2SO4High temperature SO generated in the decomposition tower2,O2The mixed gas must be cooled before entering the Bunsen reaction tower, and the process causes energy waste. The methane hydrogen production technology is mature and low in price, but the methane hydrogen production technology needs to consume a large amount of external energy in the traditional reforming process and is accompanied by CO2And H is present2And the separation of CO.
