而有轉化爐本身之構造複雜化之問題。又,由於氧氣自2 系統導入管路導入’故易發生爐內氧濃度凌亂,亦有容易 發生煤或引起觸媒劣化等問題。再者,由於使用二氧化碳 作爲原料’亦有原料成本變高的問題。而且,由於轉化反 應爲吸熱反應,故通常有必要自外部加熱,而有能量成本 亦高的問題。 又’上述專利文獻4之轉化氣體發生裝置,雖然使用 碳化氫氣體及氧氣體作爲原料氣體意圖減低原料成本,但 由於原料氣體之著火(回火)可能性高,爲能夠防止此而 進行設置複數個反應管並因應必要而開關通路,使流速保 持在特定範圍之辦法。然而,裝置本身大幅複雜化,而且 碳化氫與純氧之轉化依然有著火(回火)的可能性。而且 ’反應塔內變成非常高溫亦會引起觸媒或裝置本身過早劣 化。再者,亦有因煤的發生而使裝置閉塞之問題。 本發明係爲解決上述問題而進行者,目的在於提供一

An apparatus and method for generating carbon monoxide gas and a method and method for generating an atmosphere gas for carburizing using an atmosphere gas for carburizing treatment. [Prior Art] Conventionally, carbon monoxide gas is required as an atmosphere gas for metal surface treatment such as carburization treatment or as a raw material for production of polyurethane, polycarbonate, or the like. In the conventional carbon monoxide gas, a hydrocarbon gas and an oxygen gas are used as raw materials, and a carbon monoxide gas is generated by a mixed gas rich in hydrogen gas and having a high concentration of carbon monoxide gas by a catalyst, whereby the mixed gas 'borrows PSA ( A method such as a pressure swing adsorption method is obtained by separating carbon monoxide gas (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 below). Further, in the gas carburizing treatment, a material to be treated is placed in a carburizing furnace, and an atmosphere gas containing CO gas as a main gas is introduced and heated to about 930 to 990 °C. Such an atmosphere for carburizing is conventionally used in which a hydrocarbon gas (butane gas or propane gas) is mixed with air and introduced into a reformer, and a conversion gas obtained by a conversion reaction using a nickel catalyst is used. Such a general conversion gas composition is about 20% of C0, about 40% of H2, and about 40% of N2 200906720. Since air is used as a raw material, the carbon potential is not so high, so it is necessary to carry out the supply of propane rich gas. And control the atmosphere while performing carburizing. As a method for producing a carburizing gas for increasing the carbon potential, a method of causing a conversion reaction by using a hydrocarbon gas, an oxygen gas, or a carbon dioxide gas as a raw material gas catalyst (for example, Patent Document 3 below) proposes the use of a hydrocarbon gas and an oxygen gas. A method of causing a conversion reaction is used as a material gas (for example, Patent Document 4 below). Patent Document 1: Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei No. H11-137942 (Patent Document 2): JP-A-20001 - 3 3 5 3 0 5 Patent Publication 3: JP-A-200 1 - 1 5 23 1 3 Patent Document 4: JP-A-2006-022357 [Summary of the Invention] [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, hydrocarbon gas and oxygen gas are used as a raw material gas catalyst to be reformed, and carbon monoxide gas is generated by a gas rich in hydrogen and having a high concentration of carbon monoxide gas.

The reaction tubes are opened and closed as necessary to maintain the flow rate in a specific range. However, the device itself is greatly complicated, and the conversion of hydrocarbon and pure oxygen still has the possibility of fire (tempering). Moreover, the fact that the inside of the reaction tower becomes very hot can cause premature deterioration of the catalyst or the device itself. Furthermore, there is also the problem of occluding the device due to the occurrence of coal.

Moreover, the composition of the heat obtained by the reaction is mainly composed of Η 2 Ο and the mixture of the 导 2 in the method and the mixing ratio of the vapor of 0.5 or less to 0.5 or less. And the method of 'up-Pt catalyst, so that the combustion reaction of the hydrocarbon gas and the conversion reaction are simultaneously performed in the same reaction zone when the conversion reaction of the exothermic reaction and the endothermic reaction are the same Simultaneously in the reaction zone, since the heat energy generated by the combustion reaction can be utilized as a heat source for the conversion reaction, it is extremely energy efficient. Further, an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction occur simultaneously in the reaction zone, so that heat neutralization can be caused and the operation can be performed in a state of thermal equilibrium. Therefore, compared with the case where, for example, a region in which a catalyst combustion reaction is separately carried out in the reactor is provided, the temperature rise of the reaction zone can be suppressed, the selection of the heat resistant material used in the reactor or the heat resistant structure of the reactor itself is not so. The high temperature specifications are also sufficient to save equipment costs.

Precipitated. For this reason, in addition to the operation of the carbon monoxide gas, the maintenance of the removal of pollutants and the like can be greatly reduced. In this way, since introduction of a hydrogen-containing gas downstream of the reactor or the reaction step suppresses precipitation of carbon, it is possible to suppress the amount of water vapor introduced into the reactor or the reaction step, and the reactor or reaction can be greatly improved.

In addition to the operation of the carbon oxide gas, the contamination can be removed. Maintenance of substances, etc. The apparatus for generating carbon monoxide according to the second aspect of the present invention and the raw material gas which is introduced into the reactor are configured such that the molar ratio H20/C of c in the hydrocarbon-based gas in the water vapor is 0.5 to set the hydrocarbon-based gas. The concentration of carbon monoxide gas in the mixed gas produced by mixing with the oxygen gas and the water vapor becomes high. Further, a high temperature is generated in the apparatus, so that the mixed gas discharged from the reactor is used for heating the raw material. The apparatus for generating carbon monoxide according to the second aspect of the present invention and the raw material gas to be introduced into the reactor are configured such that the molar ratio 02/C of C in the hydrogen-based gas in the oxygen-based gas is 0.3 or more, and the hydrocarbon is set.

By using the Rh-modified (Ni-Ce〇2)-Pt hydrocarbon gas, the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction are carried out in the same reaction, by the exothermic reaction, the combustion reaction and the endothermic reaction are in the same reaction. Simultaneously in the region, since the heat energy generated by the combustion can be used as the heat source for the conversion reaction, it is possible to have a heat source into the downstream of the device, and the heat of the reaction may be caused by a large reduction in the ratio of H20 to the next. In the Kelly method, the mixing ratio of the crucible 2 to the carbon of 0.5 or less can be prevented. In the law, the upper catalyst is used to make the conversion reaction in the region more efficient. Further, in the reaction zone, an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction occur simultaneously, so that heat neutralization can be caused and the operation can be performed in a state of thermal equilibrium. Therefore, compared with the case where, for example, a region in which a catalyst combustion reaction is separately carried out in the reactor is provided, the temperature rise of the reaction zone can be suppressed, the selection of the heat resistant material used in the reactor or the heat resistant structure of the reactor itself is not so.

Further, the cost of the material gas is also inexpensive and economical, and the carbon gas having a high carbon potential can be safely produced at a low cost. Further, an atmosphere gas rich in H2 can be obtained, and unreacted carbon particles in the carburization treatment step can be suppressed. In the apparatus and method for producing an atmosphere gas for carburizing according to the present invention, the raw material gas system can be shortened by mixing the hydrocarbon gas and the steam in advance, and mixing the oxygen gas into the reactor. It is advantageous in terms of safety to pass a flow path through which a mixed gas of a hydrocarbon gas of a flammable gas and an oxygen-based gas can pass.

Further, when the mixing ratio of the hydrocarbon gas to the oxygen gas to the water vapor is set to be equal to or lower than the molar ratio H20 of the H20 in the hydrogen gas to the gas content of H20/C in the hydrocarbon gas, the carburization property is formed. The concentration of CO in the gas becomes high, and an atmosphere gas having a high carbon potential can be obtained. In the apparatus and method for producing an atmosphere gas for carburizing according to the present invention, the supply amount of the source gas is often controlled so as to automatically change the supply amount of the oxygen-based gas and water in accordance with the fluctuation in the supply amount of the hydrocarbon-based gas. The carburizing gas having a substantially constant C 0 concentration causes the amount of carburizing gas to be generated to vary. In the apparatus and method for producing an atmosphere gas for carburizing according to the present invention, the reactor is subjected to the same reaction by a combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon-based gas and a conversion reaction by using a Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst. When the zones are simultaneously carried out, the conversion reaction between the combustion reaction and the endothermic reaction of the exothermic reaction is simultaneously carried out in the same reaction zone, and since the heat energy produced by the combustion reaction can be used as a heat source for the conversion reaction, Energy efficient. Further, an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction occur simultaneously in the reaction zone, so that heat neutralization can be caused and the operation can be performed in a state of thermal equilibrium. Therefore, compared with the case where, for example, a region in which a catalyst combustion reaction is separately carried out in the reactor is provided, the temperature rise of the reaction zone can be suppressed, the selection of the heat resistant material used in the reactor or the heat resistant structure of the reactor itself is not so. The high temperature specifications are also sufficient to save equipment costs. Further, the temperature of the material gas supplied to the inlet of the catalyst layer can be lowered, and coal can be prevented from being thermally decomposed by the decomposition of the hydrocarbon, and the risk of fire can be avoided.

In other words, the raw material gas is configured such that the molar ratio C2/c of C in the oxygen-based gas and the hydrocarbon-based gas is 0.3 or more and 0.5 or less, and the H20 and hydrocarbon gas in the water vapor. In the case where the molar ratio of C to HaO/C is 0.5 or less, the mixing ratio of the hydrocarbon-based gas and the oxygen-based gas to the water vapor is set. That is, in order to increase the C 0 yield, it is necessary to make HaO sufficiently low to the extent of temperature, so h2 〇 / C is preferably 0.5 or less. Further, if the OWC exceeds 〇5, it enters the temperature change cylinder of the hydrogen combustion zone. Therefore, the 〇2/C is preferably 〇.3 or more. Further, the molar ratio HiO/C of Ηα〇 in water vapor and c in the hydrocarbon-based gas is preferably set to 〇.5 or more and 0.3 or less. For example, when the hydrocarbon gas is methane (CH4), C in methane is 1', and the mixing ratio is determined by the following formula (1) and (2). 〇2/C is 0.3~0.5, which is a ratio of 33 to 0.5 mol relative to methane 1 Mo〇2, and H2〇/C = 〇·5 or less is 0.5 relative to methane 1 MoH Mole is mixed below. 〇2/C = [02]/ ( ix[ch4] ) =0.3-0.5-----( 1) H2〇/C = [H2〇]/ ( ! x[CH4j ) ^0.5----- (2) [Ο 2 ] : Moir number of 〇2 [CH4] : Moir number of CH4 [H2〇] : The number of moles of H2〇 is similarly 'For example, when the hydrocarbon gas is propane (C3H8), propane C in the -18-200906720 is 3, so the mixing ratio is determined by the following formula (3) (4). 〇 2 / C is ~ 0.5 is the ratio of 0 · 9 ~ 丨. 5 molar relative to propane 1 Mo〇 2, H2 〇 / C = 0.5 or less is relative to propane 1 Mo H2 〇 become i · 5 moles mixed below. 〇2/C = [〇2]/ ( 3x[C3H8] ) =0.3-0.5-----( 3 ) H2〇/C = [H2〇]/ ( 3x[C3H8] ) ^〇·5-- ---(4) [〇2 ] · Ο 2 molars [C3H8] : C3H8 molars [H2〇] : H20 molars, this device has a flow control machine (not shown) The flow rate control device detects a flow rate fluctuation of the hydrocarbon-based gas in the flow rate adjusting valve (54), and adjusts the oxygen flow rate adjusting valve 58 and water in accordance with a change in the supply amount of the hydrocarbon-based gas while maintaining the mixing ratio. The flow rate adjusting valve 6 1 ' controls the supply amount of the material gas so that the supply amount of the oxygen-based gas and water is automatically changed. The Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst was purged in the above reactor 51. Therefore, the combustion reaction of the hydrocarbon-based gas and the conversion reaction are simultaneously carried out in the same reaction zone by using the above-mentioned Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst. Next, the reactor 5 1 is provided with a temperature controller 6 8 that detects the temperature at the time when the raw material gas is supplied to the reactor 51, that is, the inlet side temperature, and causes the preheating heater 66 to feed the raw material. The gas supply temperature is controlled to 250 to 450 °C. Further, the above-mentioned reactor 51 is provided with a starter heater 69 which, when the -19-200906720 is started, allows the nitrogen gas supplied from the nitrogen high pressure cylinder (not shown) to flow while the catalyst is filled with the catalyst reaction area. Preheat. When the starter heater 69' is activated, the internal temperature is heated to about 200 to 300 °C, which is necessary for the start of the reaction of the raw material gas, and is similarly controlled by the temperature controller 68. In the above reactor 51, the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction of the hydrocarbon are carried out by the Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst to simultaneously carry out the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction of the hydrocarbon in one reaction zone. That is, one part of the hydrocarbon is completely burned to convert the hydrocarbon into a combustion reaction of CO and H2o, and the co2 and H20 formed by the combustion reaction are respectively converted into H2 and CO by reacting with the remaining hydrocarbon. The conversion reaction is carried out on the above-mentioned catalyst, and the hydrocarbon can be converted into h2o and CO to be reformed. For example, in the case where hydrocarbon is used as the methane, the reaction is generally represented by the following formula (5), but actually, the formulas (6) to (8) are formed by the combustion reaction to produce C02 and H20. CH4 causes a conversion reaction and is converted into a stepwise reaction of CO and H2. Ch4 + 2〇2 + 4 CO + 8H2 ——( 5 ) ch4 + 2〇2C02 + 2H2〇...( 6) ch4 + C02 + 2 CO + 2H2 ——( 7 ) 2CH 4 + 2 H2 2 CO + 6H2 _____( 8 ) When the above ch4 and 02 are subjected to a catalytic reaction, CO 2 or 2H 20 may be further supplied to the system. In this case, the supply amount of 〇2 which is offset by the supply amount of C02 or 2H20 can be reduced. -20- 200906720 The reaction temperature can be 3 5 0 to 900 ° C, especially about 400 to 800 ° C. The combustion reaction between CH4 and 02 is an exothermic reaction, and the conversion reaction between CH4 and H20 is an endothermic reaction. As described above, when the apparatus is started up, the reaction zone in the reactor 51 is preheated to 200 to 300 ° C, and the supply temperature of the raw material gas is controlled to 250 to 450 ° C, thereby making the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction into a thermal equilibrium state. Then proceed simultaneously. Further, external heating may be applied to the insufficient portion of the reaction temperature. Further, the reaction pressure is usually under a pressurized condition (for example, 0.3 to 0.4 Μ P a ), but it may be a normal pressure condition. In the case of using natural gas as a raw material gas by using the modified gas composition obtained by the above-mentioned combustion reaction and conversion reaction, it is about 64% H2 + 26% C0 + 6% C02 + 4% CH4 on a dry weight basis. The rest are not pure. The temperature of the reforming gas at the outlet portion of the upper reactor 51 is about 700 to 800 °C. The Rh-modified (N i -C e Ο 2 ) - Pt catalyst is supported by, for example, a substrate carrying an appropriate porosity to support Rh, and then supporting Ni and Ce02. And get. Among them, the choice of the material or shape of the carrier, the choice of whether or not to form the coating or the material thereof may vary. The support of R h is carried out by impregnating an aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of Rh, followed by drying, firing, and hydrogen reduction. Further, the support of Pt is carried out by impregnating an aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of Pt, followed by drying, firing, and hydrogen reduction. The simultaneous holding of N i and C e Ο 2 is carried out by impregnating a water-soluble salt of N i and a mixed aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of C e, followed by drying, firing, and hydrogen reduction. -21 - 200906720 By the order listed above, the (N i - C e 0 2 ) - P t catalyst which is the target of Rh modification is obtained. The composition of each component should be set to Rh: Ni : Ce02 : Pt = ( 0-05-0.5 ) : ( 3.0-10.0 ): ( 2.0 - 8.0 ) : ( 0.3 - 5.0 ) ' More preferably Rh : Ni: Ce02: Pt = (〇.1-0.4) : (4.0-9.0) : (2.0-5.0) : (0.3-3.0). Further, the hydrogen reduction treatment in each of the above stages may be omitted, and the catalyst may be used after high-temperature hydrogen reduction in actual use. When the hydrogen reduction treatment is carried out at each stage, the catalyst can be further used after high-temperature hydrogen reduction at the time of use. Therefore, the carbon monoxide generating apparatus and method of the present embodiment form a portion-distributing line on the downstream side of the steam heater 62 of the steam supply line 63, and is provided with H2 in the downstream of the reactor 51 or the reaction step. The main fluid is introduced into the line 67 as steam of water vapor. Thereby, the water vapor heated by the steam heater 62 is introduced into the high-temperature reforming gas discharged from the reactor 51. The flow rate of water vapor introduced in the reactor 51 or the downstream of the reaction step is adjusted by a flow rate adjusting valve 70 provided in the steam introduction line 67. The water vapor introduction line 67 merges with the merged gas line 72 at the junction position 'the first heat exchange disposed on the most upstream side of the plurality of thermal exchangers 76, 77, 78 provided on the reformed gas line 72. The inlet of the vessel 76 is between the outlet of the reactor 51. The modified gas obtained as described above, i.e., the mixed gas having a high hydrogen monoxide and a high concentration of carbon monoxide, is cooled by the third heat exchanger 78 for cooling, and is removed by the gas-liquid separator 71, and then introduced into the first PSA unit 73.

into carbon monoxide and hydrogen by the second PSA unit 74. The first PSA device 73 has a configuration in which a plurality of (for example, four in this example) adsorption towers 7 are arranged in parallel. In the inside of each of the adsorption towers 7 9 , an adsorbent such as activated carbon, molecular sieve or zeolite is charged, and a mixed gas rich in hydrogen and having a high concentration of carbon monoxide generated by the reactor 51 is passed through the adsorbent layer to pass H20, C02, CH4, etc. are adsorbed on the adsorbent and removed. The adsorption tower 79 which adsorbs the H20, CO2, CH4 or the like to the adsorbent is sucked into the adsorption tower 79 by the vacuum pump 80, and H20, CO2, CH4 and the like are desorbed from the adsorbent and discharged as exhaust gas. The mixed gas is adsorbed and removed by the first PSA unit 73 into a mixed gas mainly composed of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen, and introduced into the second PSA unit 74. The second PSA unit 74 has a configuration in which a plurality of (e.g., four in this example) adsorption towers 8 1 are arranged in parallel. The adsorbent of activated carbon, molecular sieve, zeolite or the like is filled in the inside of each of the adsorption towers 81, and a mixed gas of carbon oxide gas and hydrogen is discharged from the first PSA unit 73 to adsorb carbon monoxide gas through the adsorbent layer. The adsorption separation of the carbon monoxide gas on the adsorbent is carried out by introducing the gas discharged from the adsorption tower 81 into the adsorption tower 81 by the recycle compressor 86 and repeating the plurality of operation cycles, and the hydrogen gas having a sufficiently low carbon monoxide concentration. It is recovered as hydrogen of the product. One of the carbon monoxide gases adsorbed and separated by the adsorption towers 81 is sucked into the adsorption tower 81 by the vacuum pump 82, and the carbon monoxide is desorbed from the adsorbent -23-200906720, and is stored as a carbon monoxide product through the buffer tank 83 and the compressor 84'. In the product tank 85. As described above, in the apparatus and method for generating carbon monoxide gas in the present embodiment, by introducing water vapor downstream of the reactor 51 or the reaction step, it is possible to effectively prevent carbon from being deposited on the metal surface inside the piping downstream of the reactor 51. Therefore, in addition to the operation of carbon monoxide, the maintenance of decontaminants and the like can be greatly reduced. In this way, since it is possible to suppress precipitation of carbon caused by introduction of water vapor downstream of the reactor 51 or the reaction step, it is possible to suppress the amount of water vapor introduced in the reactor 51 or the reaction step, which is obtained by the reactor 51 or the reaction step. The concentration of carbon oxide in one of the reformed gases can be greatly increased and the yield of carbon monoxide can be greatly increased. A heat exchanger 76, 77, 78 capable of recovering heat generated by the reactor 51 is disposed downstream of the reactor 51, and is introduced between the outlet of the reactor 51 and the inlet of the first heat exchanger 76 on the most upstream side. In the case of water vapor, the heat exchangers 76, 77, 78 disposed downstream of the reactor 51 for recovering the heat of the reactor 51 can be effectively prevented from being contaminated by carbon deposition, except that the carbon monoxide gas can be operated under high conditions. In addition, maintenance of decontaminants and the like can be greatly reduced. The raw material gas introduced into the reactor 51 is configured such that the hydrocarbon gas and the oxygen gas and the water vapor are set such that the H 2 水 in the water vapor and the molar ratio H20/C of C in the hydrocarbon gas are 0.5 or less. At the mixing ratio, the concentration of carbon monoxide gas in the mixed gas produced becomes high. Further, since the high temperature is generated in the reactor 51, the heat of the mixed gas discharged from the reactor 51 can be utilized to heat the raw material or to heat the water vapor introduced into the downstream of the reactor -24-200906720. The raw material gas introduced into the reactor 51 is configured such that the hydrocarbon gas and oxygen are set such that the molar ratio 02/C of C in the oxygen-based gas and the hydrocarbon-based gas is 0.3 or more and 〇-5 or less. When the mixing ratio of the gas to the water vapor is used, the composition of the obtained mixed gas can be appropriately maintained in addition to preventing excessive heat generation due to the internal combustion reaction and preventing damage to the catalyst. The above reactor 51 uses a Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst to simultaneously react a combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon-based gas with a conversion reaction in the same reaction zone by a combustion reaction of an exothermic reaction The conversion reaction with the endothermic reaction proceeds simultaneously in the same reaction zone, and since the heat energy generated by the reaction combustion can be utilized as a heat source for the conversion reaction, it is extremely energy-efficient. Further, an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction occur simultaneously in the reaction zone, so that heat neutralization can be caused and the operation can be performed in a state of thermal equilibrium. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the temperature rise of the reaction zone as compared with the case where the catalyst combustion reaction is separately performed in the reactor 51, for example, the selection of the heat resistant material used for the reactor 51 or the heat resistant structure of the reactor 51 itself. Even if it is not such a high temperature specification, it is enough to use it, so it can also save equipment costs. Further, the temperature of the material gas supplied to the inlet of the catalyst layer can be lowered, and the generation of coal by thermal decomposition of hydrocarbon can be suppressed, and the risk of fire can be avoided. When the raw material gas system is mixed with water vapor in advance, and the oxygen gas is combined with the oxygen gas and introduced into the reactor 51, the mixing of the hydrocarbon gas of the combustible gas with the oxygen gas can be shortened. The flow path through which the gas passes is advantageous in terms of safety. -25-200906720 The above-mentioned raw material gas system is a mixture of an oxygen-based gas and steam, and a hydrocarbon-hydrogen gas mixed with a flammable gas when it is combined with a hydrocarbon-based gas and introduced into the reactor 51. The oxygen concentration of the mixed gas is lowered, so that the explosion limit is further lowered, which is advantageous in terms of safety. When the supply amount of the raw material gas is controlled so as to automatically change the supply amount of the oxygen-based gas and water in accordance with the fluctuation in the supply amount of the hydrocarbon-based gas, a gas having a substantially constant C◦ concentration is often obtained, and the amount of production can be varied. The preheating heater 66 for preheating the material gas introduced into the reactor 51 is controlled so that the temperature of the raw material gas supplied to the reactor 51 by the preheating heater 66 is controlled to 25 0 to 45 (TC), Further, since the carbon is prevented from being precipitated by the water vapor introduced downstream of the reactor 51 or the reaction step, the amount of water vapor introduced into the reactor 51 or the reaction step can be suppressed, depending on the operating conditions. The gas-liquid separator 71 disposed upstream of the first PSA unit 73 may be omitted. Fig. 2 is a view showing the apparatus and method for generating a carbon monoxide according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In the above reactor 5 1 or downstream of the reaction step, pure water is introduced as a pure water introduction line 8 8 and a pure water insufflator 8 7 containing a H 2 0-based fluid, thereby forming the self-reactor 5 . In the same manner as in the above-described embodiment, the same portions are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the same effects as those of the above-described embodiment are also exhibited. Three implementation The carbon monoxide generating device -26-200906720 and the method of the method. Thus, the apparatus for generating carbon monoxide according to the embodiment and the hydrogen introducing tube for introducing hydrogen into the reactor 51 or the reaction step are provided downstream of the reactor 51 or the reaction step. The passage of 90 ° thereby introduces mainly hydrogen into the high-temperature reforming gas discharged from the reactor 51. The hydrogen flow introduced downstream of the reactor 51 or the reaction step is provided by a flow regulating valve provided on the hydrogen introduction line 90. 9 1 is adjusted to the above reactor 51 or the gas introduced downstream of the reaction step by using hydrogen gas, for example, hydrogen gas supplied from a hydrogen source of the hydrogen high pressure cylinder, and introduced into the second "eight pack three" of the above-mentioned separation device of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The separated and recovered hydrogen gas may be introduced into the reaction or downstream of the reaction step, or may be introduced in combination with other gases such as nitrogen or water vapor. The hydrogen introduction line 90 merges with the modified gas line 72. The inlet device of the first heat exchanger 76 disposed on the most upstream side of the plurality of heaters 76, 77, 78 disposed on the reformed gas line 72 In the same manner as in the above embodiments, the same reference numerals are given to the same portions as in the above embodiments. The apparatus and method for generating carbon monoxide gas in the present embodiment are introduced in the reactor 51 or the downstream of the reaction step. Hydrogen is a gas, and it is possible to effectively prevent carbon from being deposited on the surface of the inside of the piping downstream of the reactor 51. Therefore, in addition to being operated under the condition that the carbon monoxide gas is generated, the maintenance method for removing pollutants and the like can be greatly reduced. The self-body volume can be dominated by 0. 74 I 51 The merged merge interaction and the anti-attachment are higher by the metal of the main. For example, -27-200906720, since it can be suppressed from being introduced into the reactor 51 or downstream of the reaction step containing hydrogen Since the carbon caused by the main gas is precipitated, it is possible to suppress the amount of water vapor introduced in the reactor 51 or the reaction step, and the concentration of carbon oxide in the reformed gas obtained by the reactor 51 or the reaction step can be greatly increased and the carbon monoxide can be greatly increased. The yield. A heat exchanger 76, 77, 78 capable of recovering heat generated by the reactor 51 is disposed downstream of the reactor 51, and is introduced between the outlet of the reactor 51 and the inlet of the first heat exchanger 76 on the most upstream side. When the gas containing hydrogen is contained, the heat exchangers 76, 77, 78 disposed downstream of the reactor 51 for recovering the heat of the reactor 51 can be effectively prevented from being contaminated by carbon deposition, except for the generation of carbon monoxide gas. In addition to operation under high conditions, maintenance of decontaminants and the like can be greatly reduced. The raw material gas introduced into the reactor 51 is configured such that the hydrocarbon gas and the oxygen gas and the water vapor are set such that the H 2 水 in the water vapor and the molar ratio H20/C of C in the hydrocarbon gas are 0.5 or less. At the mixing ratio, the concentration of carbon monoxide gas in the mixed gas produced becomes high. Further, since the high temperature is generated in the reactor 51, the heat of the mixed gas discharged from the reactor 51 can be utilized to heat the raw material. The raw material gas to be introduced into the reactor 51 is configured such that the hydrocarbon gas is set to be 〇·3 or more and 0.5 or less in the 〇 2 of the oxygen-based gas and the molar ratio C 2 / C of C in the hydrocarbon-based gas. When the mixing ratio of the oxygen-based gas and the water vapor is prevented, excessive heat generation due to the internal combustion reaction can be prevented, and the catalyst can be prevented from being damaged, and the composition of the obtained mixed gas can be appropriately maintained. -28- 200906720 The above reactor 51 uses a Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst to simultaneously react the combustion reaction of the hydrocarbon-based gas with the conversion reaction in the same reaction zone. The conversion reaction between the combustion reaction of the reaction and the endothermic reaction is carried out simultaneously in the same reaction zone. The thermal energy generated by the combustion of the available reaction is used as a heat source for the conversion reaction, so that it is extremely energy-efficient. Further, an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction occur simultaneously in the reaction zone, so that heat neutralization can be caused and the operation can be performed in a state of thermal equilibrium. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the temperature rise of the reaction zone, the selection of the heat resistant material used for the reactor 51, or the heat resistant structure of the reactor 51 itself, as compared with the case where, for example, a region where the catalyst combustion reaction is separately performed in the reactor 51 is provided. Even if it is not such a high temperature specification, it is enough to save equipment costs. Further, the temperature of the material gas supplied to the inlet of the catalyst layer can be lowered, and coal can be prevented from being thermally decomposed by the decomposition of the hydrocarbon, and the risk of ignition can be avoided. When the raw material gas system is mixed with water vapor in advance, and the oxygen gas is combined with the oxygen gas and introduced into the reactor 51, the mixing of the hydrocarbon gas of the combustible gas with the oxygen gas can be shortened. The flow path through which the gas passes is advantageous in terms of safety. In the above-mentioned raw material gas system, a mixture of a hydrocarbon-based gas and a water vapor is mixed in advance, and when it is combined with a hydrocarbon-based gas and introduced into the reactor 51, a mixed gas of a hydrocarbon-based gas in which a combustible gas is mixed is used. As the oxygen concentration becomes lower, the explosion limit is further reduced, which is advantageous in terms of safety. When the supply amount of the raw material gas is controlled so as to automatically change the supply amount of the oxygen-based gas and the water in accordance with the fluctuation in the supply amount of the hydrocarbon-based gas, the gas having a substantially constant C 0 concentration is often obtained, and the amount of production can be varied. -29-200906720 The preheating heater 66' for preheating the raw material gas introduced into the reactor 51 is controlled by the preheating heater to supply the raw material gas to the reaction mass 51 to a temperature of 2,500 to 4,500. At °C, it is possible to operate in an efficient thermal equilibrium state. [Embodiment 1] Fig. 4 shows the results of the production of carbon monoxide in the carbon monoxide generating apparatus 100 described above, using propane gas as a raw material to change the molar ratio of H20 in the water vapor to the molar ratio H20/C of C in the hydrocarbon-based gas. Further, at this time, 〇2/C was set to 〇_〇4, and the supply temperature of the material gas was set to 400 °c. The reforming pressure was set to 〇3 MPa. As can be seen from the figure, when H20/C is 0.5 or less, the CO concentration in the reformed gas generated becomes high, and the CO yield can be improved. Fig. 5 is a view showing the result of generating carbon monoxide by changing the molar ratio 〇2/c of the oxygen-based gas in the raw material gas and the molar ratio C2/c of C in the hydrocarbon-based gas in the carbon monoxide generating apparatus 100 described above. . Further, H2〇/C at this time was set to 0.5, the supply temperature of the material gas was set to 400 °C, and the reforming pressure was set to 〇3 MPa. As can be seen from the figure, when 〇2/C is set to 〇_3 or more and 0.5 or less, the C0 concentration in the reformed gas generated becomes high, and the CO yield can be improved. Fig. 6 is a view showing the result of generating carbon monoxide in the carbon monoxide generating apparatus 100 by using natural gas as a raw material to change the molar ratio of H2〇 in the steam to the molar ratio H2〇/C of c in the hydrocarbon-based gas. In addition, at this time, 〇2/c is set to 0.04'. The supply temperature of the material gas is set to 4 () (rc, change -30-200906720, the mass pressure is set to 〇.3 MPa. As can be seen from the figure, it is set at H20/C. When the ratio is 0.5 or less, the CO concentration in the reformed gas generated is increased, and the CO yield can be increased. Fig. 7 is a view showing that the carbon monoxide generating device 100 uses natural gas as a raw material to make the oxygen gas in the raw material gas 2 The result of carbon monoxide ratio o2/c in the hydrocarbon gas is changed by carbon monoxide. The H20/C is set to 0.5 at this time. The supply temperature of the raw material gas is set to 400 °C, and the reforming pressure is set. It is 0.3 MPa. As can be seen from the figure, when 02/C is set to 0.3 or more and 0.5 or less, the CO concentration in the generated reformed gas becomes high, and the C 〇 yield can be improved. Fig. 8 shows the application of the present invention. A configuration of one of the carburizing atmosphere gas devices 3 is provided. The carburizing atmosphere gas device 30 includes a 'reactor 1 that introduces a hydrocarbon gas, an oxygen gas, and water vapor as a raw material gas. The raw material gas is used to carry out the raw material gas and the catalyst The combustion reaction of the hydrocarbon gas and the conversion reaction occur to generate a carburizing atmosphere gas rich in hydrogen gas and having a high concentration of carbon monoxide gas. The hydrocarbon gas is supplied from the gas high pressure cylinder 2 in this example. 'Desulfurization is carried out in the desulfurizer 3, adjusted to a specific flow rate by the flow regulator 4, and preheated to a specific temperature by the hydrocarbon preheating heater 5, and then supplied to the hydrocarbon supply line 6. The desulfurizer 3 can be used. For hydrodesulfurization, it is also possible to carry out desulfurization at room temperature by using an adsorbent such as activated carbon or zeolite. The above hydrocarbon gas is generally supplied by propane or as a social infrastructure such as urban natural gas. The hydrocarbon-based gas is used, and a hydrocarbon-based gas such as natural gas, butane gas, or methane gas can be used. The oxygen-based gas is supplied from the unoxygenated high pressure cylinder 7, and is adjusted to a specific flow rate by the flow rate regulator 8 and is made of oxygen. The supply line 9 is supplied. For the oxygen-based gas, industrial pure oxygen can be suitably used. However, if the oxygen concentration is as high as 21% or more, how much can be used. An impurity or other gas is used as the oxygen-based gas. The water vapor is supplied to the pure water by the pump 1 , adjusted to a specific flow rate by the flow regulator 1 1 , and heated to a steam by the steam heater 12 to supply the water vapor. The water vapor supply line 13 , the hydrocarbon supply line 6 , and the oxygen supply line 9 are first provided with a mixed gas flow that joins the water vapor supply line 13 and the hydrocarbon supply line 6 . The path 14 is provided with a material gas supply line 15 that allows the mixed gas flow path 14 to merge with the oxygen supply line 9. Thereby, the raw material gas is first mixed with the water vapor first. The oxygen-based gas is combined and introduced into the reactor 1. The material gas may be configured such that the oxygen-based gas is mixed with the water vapor in advance, and the hydrocarbon-based gas is combined and introduced into the reactor 1. Further, the oxygen-based gas, the water vapor, and the hydrocarbon-based gas may be simultaneously merged and introduced into the reactor 1. The mixing ratio of the hydrocarbon gas, the oxygen gas, and the water vapor of the source gas is set by adjusting the flow rates of the hydrocarbon gas, the oxygen gas, and the water by the flow rate regulators 4, 8, and 1 respectively. . In other words, the raw material gas is configured such that the molar ratio 〇2/C of c in the oxygen-based gas and the carbon-32 - 200906720 hydrogen-based gas is 0.3 or more and 0.5 or less and Η 2 in the water vapor. The mixing ratio of the hydrocarbon-based gas to the oxygen-based gas and the water vapor is set such that the molar ratio of C to the molar ratio H20/C in the hydrocarbon gas is 0.3 or less. Further, the molar ratio H2〇/C of Ηβ in the steam and c in the hydrocarbon gas is preferably set to 0.05 or more and 0.3 or less. For example, when the hydrocarbon gas is methane (CH4), c in methane is 1, so 02/1=0.3-0.5, which is a ratio of ο"~〇.5 molar ratio with respect to 1 〇2 , H2 〇 / l = 〇. 3 below 'that is relative to methane! The Mo H20 is mixed below 0.3 mol. Similarly, for example, when the hydrocarbon gas is propane (C3H8), C in the courtyard is 3, so 〇2Π is 0.3 to 0.5, that is, 〇_9~1. The ratio of the ear is mixed, Η2〇/3 = 0·3 or less, that is, mixed with less than 0.9 moles in the case of the 1st Η2〇. Further, the apparatus includes a flow rate control unit 7 for detecting a flow rate fluctuation of the hydrocarbon-based gas in the flow rate adjuster 4, and maintaining the mixing ratio in accordance with a variation in the supply amount of the hydrocarbon-based gas. In this manner, the oxygen flow rate regulator 8 and the water flow rate regulator 调节 are adjusted, and the supply amount of the material gas is controlled such that the supply amount of the oxygen-based gas and the water is automatically changed. In the vicinity of the junction point of the raw material gas flow path 14 and the oxygen supply line 9, the oxygen supply line 9, the mixed gas flow path 4, and the raw material gas supply path 15 are provided with a mixture of a hydrocarbon-based gas and water vapor. The gas, the oxygen-based gas, and the raw material gas in which the mixed gas and the oxygen-based gas are mixed are preheated to the preheating heater 16 at a preheating temperature of -33 to 200906720. Therefore, the preheated raw material gas preheated to the specific temperature by the preheating heater 16 described above is introduced into the reactor 1. The above reactor 1 is filled with Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst. Therefore, by using the above Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst, the combustion reaction of the hydrocarbon-based gas and the conversion reaction are simultaneously carried out in the same reaction zone. Next, the reactor 1 is provided with a temperature controller 18 for detecting the temperature at the time when the raw material gas is supplied to the reactor 1, that is, the inlet side temperature, and the preheating heater 16 is used as a raw material. The gas supply temperature is controlled to be 300 to 4 50 °C. Further, the reactor 1 is provided with a starter heater 19 for preheating a reaction zone which is filled with a catalyst while flowing nitrogen gas supplied from a nitrogen high pressure cylinder (not shown) while the apparatus is being started. By the start of the heater 1, the internal temperature is heated up to about 200 to 300 °C necessary for the start of the reaction of the raw material gas, and the temperature controller 18 is controlled in the same manner. In the above reactor 1, the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction of the hydrocarbon are carried out by the Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst to simultaneously carry out the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction of the hydrocarbon in one reaction zone. That is, one part of the hydrocarbon is completely burned to convert the hydrocarbon into a combustion reaction of CO and H20, and the c〇2 and H2〇 generated by the combustion reaction are respectively converted into H2 by reacting with the remaining hydrocarbon. The CO conversion reaction is carried out on the above catalyst to convert the hydrocarbon into H2 - 34 - 200906720 and CO. For example, when carbon dioxide is used as the methane, the reaction is generally represented by the following formula (9), but actually, the formula (10) to (12) ' is formed by the combustion reaction to produce C02 and H20. CH4 causes a conversion reaction and is converted into a stepwise reaction of CO and H2. CH4 + 2〇2^ 4 CO + 8H2 -----(9) CH4 + 2〇2^ C02 + 2H2〇.....(10) CH4 + C02 Today 2 CO + 2H2 .....( 11) 2CH4 + 2 H20+ 2 CO + 6H2 (12) When the above CH4 and 02 are subjected to a catalytic reaction, C〇2 or 2H20 may be further supplied to the system. In this case, the supply amount of 02 which is offset by the supply amount of C02 or 2H20 can be reduced. The reaction temperature may be from 3,500 to 900 °C, particularly preferably from about 400 to about 800 °C. The combustion reaction between CH4 and 〇2 is an exothermic reaction, and the conversion reaction between CH4 and H20 is an endothermic reaction. As described above, when the apparatus is started up, the reaction zone in the reactor 1 is preheated to 200 to 300 ° C, and the supply temperature of the raw material gas is controlled to be 300 to 45 ° C, thereby causing the combustion reaction and the conversion reaction. It becomes a state of thermal equilibrium and then proceeds simultaneously. Further, external heating may be applied to the insufficient portion of the reaction temperature. Further, the reaction pressure is usually under pressurized conditions, but it is also possible under normal pressure conditions. The conversion gas composition obtained by the above conversion reaction is about 58 % by dry weight, Η 2 + 3 9 % C 0 + 1 % C Ο 2 + 2 % C Η 4, and the balance is impurities. The temperature of the reforming gas at the outlet of the reactor 1 is about 700 to 800 °C. -35- 200906720 The Rh-modified (Ni-Ce02)-Pt catalyst is supported by, for example, supporting Rh by the surface of an alumina carrier having a void ratio, and then carrying Pt' Obtained by Ce02. Among them, there may be various changes in the choice of the material or shape of the carrier, the presence or absence of the formation of the coating or the material thereof.

Rh之擔持係藉由含浸Rh之水溶性鹽之水溶液後,使 乾燥、燒成、氫還原而進行。又,Pt之擔持係藉由含浸 Pt之水溶性鹽之水溶液後,使乾燥、燒成、氫還原而進 行。N i及C e Ο 2之同時擔持係藉由含浸N i之水溶性鹽以 及Ce之水溶性鹽之混合水溶液後,使乾燥、燒成、氫還 原而進行。 藉由上述列示之順序,獲得成爲目的之經Rh改質之 (Ni-Ce〇2 ) -Pt觸媒。各成份之組成以重量比計,宜設定 爲 Rh : Ni : Ce02 : Pt= ( 0.05-0.5 ) : ( 3.0-10.0):( 2.0-8.0 ) : ( 0.3-5.0 ),更好爲 Rh:Ni:Ce02:Pt=( 0.1-0.4 ) : ( 4.0-9.0 ) : ( 2.0-5.0 ) : ( 0.3-3.0 )。 又,上述中各階段之氫還原處理可省略,而在實際使 用時使觸媒在高溫氫還原後使用。在各階段進行氫還原處 理時,亦可進而在使用之際使觸媒在高溫氫還原後使用。 如上述所得之滲碳用氛圍氣體以冷卻器2 0冷卻,以 氣液分離器21去除水分後,導入滲碳爐中。 圖9係顯示上述產生滲碳用氛圍氣體之裝置30之氣 體滲碳裝置50 —例之圖。 此氣體滲碳裝置50具備使碳化氫系氣體與氧系氣體 -36- 200906720 及水蒸氣與觸媒進行催化反應而發生碳化氫系氣體之燃燒 反應以及轉化反應’藉此產生富含氫氣且一氧化碳氣體濃 度高的滲碳用氛圍氣體之反應器1,以及導入有上述反應 器1所得之滲碳用氛圍氣體之氛圍氣體爐31。 於是,構成爲於上述氛圍氣體爐31具備導入氟系氣 體之氟系氣體導入機構,被處理物在氟系氣體氛圍下加熱 進行形成氟化物皮膜之氟化處理後,導入在上述反應器1 所得之滲碳用氛圍氣體並加熱進行滲碳處理。 於此氣體滲碳裝置50中,被處理物40在氟系氣體氛 圍下加熱進行形成氟化物皮膜之氟化處理後,導入藉由使 碳化氫系氣體與氧系氣體及水蒸氣與觸媒進行催化反應而 發生碳化氫氣體之燃燒反應以及轉化反應所得之富含氫氣 且一氧化碳氣體濃度高的滲碳用氛圍氣體並加熱而進行滲 碳處理。 若更詳細加以說明’於圖中,31爲氛圍器爐,具備 有外殼32、內部形成爲處理室之內容器34、設於上述內 容器34與外殼32之間之加熱器33。於上述內容器34內 ’連通氣體導入管35及排氣管36。上述氣體導入管35 連通上述產生滲碳用氛圍氣體之裝置30以及充塡有氟化 處理氣體之N2 + NF3之高壓筒46。47爲流量計,48爲閥 。此例中’上述高壓筒46與流量計47此等藉由連接於氣 體導入管35之流路等,構成上述氟氣體導入機構。 又’上述排氣管36上連接有排氣處理裝置44以及真 空栗43。藉此’於內容器34內之處理室內導入處理氣體 -37- 200906720 並排出。上述處理室內’設有附加可攪拌處理氣體之馬達 37的風扇38。41爲裝入運轉的被處理物40之籠41。 於此氛圍氣爐3 1內’例如裝入被處理物40 ’導入與 高壓筒46以流路連接之NF3等之氟系氣體導入氛圍氣爐 3 1內並加熱同時進行氟化處理’隨後自排氣管3 6以真空 泵43之作用引出其氣體,在排氣處理裝置44內無毒化並 排放至外部。隨後,導入以上述產生滲碳用氛圍氣體裝置 3 0所產生之滲碳用氣體進行滲碳處理,隨後,經由排氣 管3 6、排氣處理裝置44將氣體排放至外部。藉此一連串 作業,於該氣體滲碳裝置50進行氟化處理及滲碳處理。 構成上述被處理物40之材質,可使用各種金屬材料 ,但尤其較好使用鐵系金屬材料。尤其好的是,使用以奧 氏體系不鏽鋼爲代表之奧氏體系金屬。 上述奧氏體系不鏽鋼舉例有例如含有鐵成份5 0重量 %以上、鉻成份含有1 2重量%以上含有鎳之奧氏體系不鏽 鋼。具體而言,舉例有SUS304、SUS316、SUS303S等之 1 8 - 8系不鏽鋼鋼材或含有鉻2 5重量%、鎳2 0重量%之奧 氏體系不鏽鋼之US310S或309,進而舉例有鉻含量23重 量%、鉬含有2重量%之奧氏體-純粒鐵2相系不鏽鋼鋼材 等。 又,含有鎳爲19〜22重量%、鉻爲20〜27重量%、碳 爲0.25〜0.45重量%之SCH21或SCH22等之耐熱鋼鑄鋼亦 可適合用於作爲本發明之奧氏體系不鏽鋼。再者,含有鉻 爲20〜22重量%、鎳爲3.2 5〜4.5重量%、錳爲8〜1 0重量% -38- 200906720 '碳爲〇_48〜0.58重量%之SUH35、或含有鉻13.5〜16重 量%、鎳爲24~27重量%、鉬爲1〜1.5重量%之SUH660等 之耐熱鋼亦可適合用於作爲本發明之奧氏體系不鏽鋼。 如此,藉由使用含鎳及鉻之低碳亦可適合用於作爲本 發明之奧氏體系不鏽鋼’可製得耐蝕性優異且不析出鉻化 合物、在保有非磁性之奧氏體系不鏽鋼的表層部形成碳固 溶硬化層、耐磨耗性或耐鈾性優異之非磁性金屬製品。 如此,作爲被處理物4〇使用母材爲由奧氏體系不鏽 鋼所構成者,藉由對其進行上述氟化處理及滲碳處理,可 至少在表層部形成於母材之奧氏體固熔有碳之比母材硬度 更高之碳固熔硬化層。 此處,對上述氟化處理詳細加以說明。 上述氟化處理中所用之氟系氣體舉例爲由nf3、bf3 、CF4、HF、SF6、C2F6、WF6、CHF3、SiF4、C1F3 等所構 成之氟系化合物氣體。該等可單獨使用或以兩種以上合倂 使用。 又’該等氣體以外’於分子內含有氟之氟系氣體亦可 使用作爲本發明之氟系氣體。又’此等氣系氣化合物氣體 以熱分解裝置熱分解所生成之F2氣體或預先作成之|:2氣 體亦可使用作爲上述氛系氣體。此等氟化合物氣體與f2 氣體隨情況可混合使用。 其中尤其作爲本發明中使用之氟系氣體中最具備實用 性者爲NF3。系由於上述NF3於常溫成氣體狀、化學安定 性高且操作性容易之故。此等NF3氣體通常如後述,係與 -39- 200906720 %氣體組合在特定濃度範圍內稀釋使用。 上述中所例示之各種氟系氣體,可僅其單獨使用,但 通常以N2氣體等之惰性氣體稀釋後使用。此等經稀釋之 氣體中,氟氣體本身濃度爲例如以體積爲基準,爲 10000〜100000 ppm ’ 較好爲 20000〜70000 ppm,更好爲 30000〜50000 ppm。 使用上述氟系氣體作爲氛圍氣體之氟化處理,係使用 馬弗爐般之氛圍氣爐31,於爐內裝入未處理之被處理物 40,在上述濃度之氟系氣體氛圍氣之下,保持加熱狀態藉 此而進行。 此時之保持加熱係藉由使由奧氏體系不鏽鋼所構成之 被處理物40本身例如保持在1 80〜600 °C,較好保持在 200-450 °C而進行。上述氟系氣體氛圍中之被處理物40之 保持時間通常設定爲1 〇數分鐘~數小時。藉由使被處理物 40在此種氟系氣體氛圍下加熱處理,在奧氏體系不鏽鋼 表面形成之含有Cr204之不作用態皮膜變化成氟化膜。上 述不作用態皮膜在以往不可能滲碳,但藉由進行氟化處理 ,上述不作用態皮膜變化成氟化膜。認爲係此氟化膜比不 作用態皮膜更容易被滲碳中使用之碳原子所滲透,奧氏體 系不鏽鋼表面藉由上述氟化處理成爲碳原子容易滲透之表 面狀態之故。 其次,與上述氟化處理同時期及/或在其後,對上述 奧氏體系不鏽鋼表面進行滲碳處理。 滲碳處理係使上述奧氏體系不鏽鋼本身在680 °C以下 -40- 200906720 之滲碳處理溫度下加熱,使用上述滲碳用氣體,於爐內於 滲碳用氣體氛圍氣體中進行。於此滲碳用氣體氛圍氣體中 ’因應必要亦可富含有丙烷氣體等之碳源氣體。 因此’與以往已知之滲碳處理相比,本發明之滲碳處 理可在極低溫度領域進行。 上述滲碳處理時之溫度亦即滲碳處理溫度爲680 °C以 下,亦即較好在400~68(TC之溫度。滲碳處理溫度若超過 680 °C,由於奧氏體系不鏽鋼的母材本身產生軟化,經滲 碳之碳原子於母材上與固熔之鉻結合產生鉻碳化物,母材 本身所含之鉻量減少使表層部耐鈾性大幅降低,以侵入固 熔於滲碳層之狀態存在的碳量減少,母材強度或耐蝕性降 低,且成爲帶有磁性。 依據同樣理由,作爲上述滲碳處理溫度更好爲400〜600 t:之溫度範圍,進而較好爲400〜5 50 °C,最好爲45 0~500 °C之溫度範圍。於本發明中,藉由進行上述氟化處理,在 如此極爲低溫中之滲碳處理成爲可能,於滲碳處理中幾乎 不生成鉻碳化物粒子,碳侵入固熔於母材中,使晶格尺寸 增大而在表面層形成碳固熔硬化層。 藉由如此處理,碳於奧氏體系不鏽鋼表層部擴散滲透 並深且均一地形成碳固熔硬化層。此碳擴散層於基相的奧 氏體相中,成爲多量C原子侵入固熔引起晶格擴張之狀態 ,可實現與母材相比硬度顯著提高。且,上述碳原子幾乎 不與母材中之鉻形成Cr7C3或Cr23C6等碳化物且由於侵入 固熔於結晶晶格中,故上述碳固熔硬化層中實質上不存在 -41 - 200906720 鉻碳化物粒子’且母材中固熔之鉻量不會減少,故可維持 與母材相同程度之耐蝕性。 又’如上述般進行滲碳處理之奧氏體系不鏽鋼表面粗 度亦幾乎不惡化,不會因膨脹產生尺寸變化且亦不產生磁 性。因此,表面粗度降低或尺寸變化亦少,可以更良好精 度進行表面改質。又’奧氏體系不鏽鋼中,尤其是含多量 鎳之安定型奧氏體系不鏽鋼或含鉬之安定型奧氏體系不鏽 鋼,碳擴散層之耐蝕性更爲良好。 上述滲碳處理可自氟化處理結束後開始,亦可與氟化 處理開始同時開始進行滲碳處理,亦可在氟化處理開始後 不等渗碳處理結束而開始滲碳處理。 藉由氟化處理結束後進行滲碳處理,相對於藉由氟化 處理使表面活性化之被處理物,可比純粹滲碳氛圍氣體擴 散滲透更多碳原子,於表面強度變高且硬化深度變大時有 利,係由於有效提高表面硬度之故。 藉由上述滲碳處理不等氟化處理結束即開始,可一邊 進行藉由氟化之表面活性化一般進行碳之擴散滲透,於表 面強度變高且硬化深度變大時有利。 如上述,本實施形態之產生滲碳用氛圍氣體之裝置及 方法,藉由使碳化氫系氣體及氧系氣體及水蒸氣與觸媒進 行催化反應,藉由同時發生碳化氫系氣體之燃燒反應及轉 化反應,而發生富含氫氣且一氧化碳氣體濃度高之滲碳用 氛圍氣體。如此,由於作爲原料不使用空氣而使用氧系氣 體,故可獲得碳勢高的滲碳用氛圍氣體。又,使用水蒸氣 -42- 200906720 作爲原料,故與僅以碳化氫氣體與氧氣作爲原料之裝置相 較,***界限可降低而可大幅提高安全性。因此,與氧由 2系統之導入管路而導入之裝置相比,反應器構造本身亦 可簡化,起因於氧濃度凌亂之媒發生或觸媒的劣化亦可大 幅減少。再者,原料氣體成本亦較便宜,可以低成本且安 全地發生碳勢高之滲碳氣體。又,可獲得富含H2之氛圍 氣體,可抑制滲碳處理步驟之未反應碳微粒。 上述原料氣體係以每次預先使碳化氫氣體與水蒸氣混 合,於其中與氧系氣體合流並導入反應器1中之構成時, 可縮短使可燃性氣體之碳化氫氣體與氧系氣體之混合氣體 通過之流路,於安全方面爲有利。 上述原料氣體係以每次預先使氧系氣體與水蒸氣混合 ,於其中與碳化氫系氣體合流並導入反應器1中之構成時 ,由於合流有可燃性氣體之碳化氫系氣體之混合氣體之氧 濃度變低,故***界限更降低,於安全方面爲有利。 上述原料氣體構成爲以氧系氣體中之〇2與碳化氫系 氣體中之C的莫耳比02/C成爲0.3以上0.5以下之方式 且水蒸氣中之 H20與碳化氫系氣體中之 C之莫耳比 H20/C成爲0.3以下之方式,設定碳化氫系氣體與氧系氣 體與水蒸氣之混合比時,所生成之滲碳性氣體中之C 0濃 度變高,可獲得碳勢高之氛圍氣體。 上述原料氣體之供給量以對應於碳化氫系氣體之供給 量變動而自動變動氧系氣體及水的供給量之方式控制時, 經常獲得大致一定CO濃度之滲碳性氣體,使得滲碳性氣 -43- 200906720 體之生成量得以變動。 上述反應器1藉由使用經Rh改質之(Ni-Ce〇2) -Pt 觸媒,使碳化氫系氣體之燃燒反應與轉化反應在相同反應 區域內同時進行時,藉由使放熱反應之燃燒反應與吸熱反 應之轉化反應在相同反應區域內同時進行,由於可利用燃 燒反應所產生之熱能作爲轉化反應之熱源,故極具有能源 效率。再者,於該反應區域同時發生放熱反應及吸熱反應 ,故可引起熱中和而可以熱平衡狀態進行運轉。因此’與 例如於反應器1內設置單獨進行觸媒燃燒反應之區域的情 況相比,頗能抑制反應區域之溫度上升,反應器1所用之 耐熱材料之選定或反應器1本身之耐熱構造即使並非如此 程度之高溫規格亦足以使用’故亦可節省設備成本。又’ 可降低朝觸媒層入口洪給之原料氣體溫度,可抑制因碳化 氫熱分解而產生煤’亦可避免著火危險。 具備使導入反應器1之原料氣體預熱之預熱加熱器 1 6,上述預熱加熱器1 6將上述原料氣體向反應器1供給 的溫度控制爲3 00〜45 0 °C時,經常可以效率良好地熱平衡 狀態進行運轉。 實施例2 圖10係顯示上述產生滲碳用氛圍氣體之裝置30中, 上述原料中之氧系氣體之〇2與碳化氫系氣體中之C之莫 耳比02/C變化而產生滲碳用氣體之結果。又,此時之 H20/C設定爲0.20’原料氣體之供給溫度設定爲450 °C。 -44 - 200906720 由圖中可了解,於〇2/C設爲0.3以上〇·5以下時, 所產生之轉化氣體中之CO濃度變高’可獲得碳勢高之滲 碳氣體。 圖11係顯示上述產生滲碳用氛圍氣體之裝置30中, 上述原料中之水蒸氣中之Η2Ο與碳化氨系氣體中之c之 莫耳比H2〇/C變化而產生滲碳用氣體之結果。又,此時 之〇2/C設定爲0.40,原料氣體之供給溫度設定爲45〇〇c 0 由圖中可了解’於H2〇/C設爲0·3以下時,所產生之 轉化氣體中之CO濃度變高,可獲得碳勢高之滲碳氣體。 【圖式簡單說明】 圖1係顯示本發明之產生一氧化碳氣體裝置之一實施 形態圖。 圖2係顯示本發明之產生一氧化碳氣體裝置之第二實 施形態圖。 圖3係顯不本發明之產生一氧化碳氣體裝置之一實施 形態圖。 圖4係顯示以丙烷作爲原料,使H2〇/c變化而產生 一氧化碳氣體之結果圖。 圖5係顯示以丙焼作爲原料,使〇2/c變化而產生一 氧化碳氣體之結果圖。 圖6係顯示以天然氣作爲原料,使H2〇/c變化而產 生一氧化碳氣體之結果圖。 ' 45 -

Further, the Pt is carried out by impregnating an aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of Pt, followed by drying, firing, and hydrogen reduction. The simultaneous storage of N i and C e Ο 2 is carried out by impregnating a mixed aqueous solution of a water-soluble salt of N i and a water-soluble salt of Ce, followed by drying, firing, and hydrogen reduction. By the order listed above, the target-modified Rh-modified (Ni-Ce〇2)-Pt catalyst is obtained. The composition of each component should be set to Rh: Ni : Ce02 : Pt = ( 0.05 - 0.5 ) : ( 3.0-10.0 ) : ( 2.0 - 8.0 ) : ( 0.3 - 5.0 ) , more preferably Rh : Ni :Ce02:Pt=( 0.1-0.4 ) : ( 4.0-9.0 ) : ( 2.0-5.0 ) : ( 0.3-3.0 ). Further, the hydrogen reduction treatment in each of the above stages may be omitted, and the catalyst may be used after high-temperature hydrogen reduction in actual use. When the hydrogen reduction treatment is carried out at each stage, the catalyst can be further used after high-temperature hydrogen reduction at the time of use. The carburizing atmosphere gas obtained as described above is cooled by the cooler 20, and the water is removed by the gas-liquid separator 21, and then introduced into a carburizing furnace. Fig. 9 is a view showing an example of a gas carburizing device 50 of the apparatus 30 for generating an atmosphere gas for carburizing. The gas carburizing apparatus 50 is provided with a hydrocarbon gas-oxygen gas-36-200906720 and a steam-catalyst reaction to generate a combustion reaction and a conversion reaction of a hydrocarbon-based gas, thereby generating hydrogen-rich carbon monoxide. The reactor 1 for the atmospheric gas for carburizing having a high gas concentration, and the atmosphere gas furnace 31 for introducing the atmospheric gas for carburization obtained by the reactor 1 described above. Then, the atmosphere gas furnace 31 is provided with a fluorine-based gas introduction mechanism that introduces a fluorine-based gas, and the object to be treated is heated in a fluorine-based gas atmosphere to form a fluoride film, and then introduced into the reactor 1 and then introduced into the reactor 1. The carburizing is performed by carburizing with an atmosphere gas and heating. In the gas carburizing apparatus 50, the workpiece 40 is heated in a fluorine-based atmosphere to perform a fluorination treatment to form a fluoride film, and then introduced into the hydrocarbon-based gas, the oxygen-based gas, the water vapor, and the catalyst. The catalytic reaction generates a combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon gas and a carburizing atmosphere gas rich in hydrogen gas and having a high concentration of carbon monoxide gas obtained by the conversion reaction, and is heated to perform carburization treatment. More specifically, in the drawings, reference numeral 31 denotes an atmosphere furnace, comprising a casing 32, an inner container 34 formed inside as a processing chamber, and a heater 33 provided between the inner container 34 and the outer casing 32. The gas introduction pipe 35 and the exhaust pipe 36 are connected to the inner container 34. The gas introduction pipe 35 communicates with the device 30 for generating the carburizing atmosphere gas and the high pressure cylinder 46 of the N2 + NF3 charged with the fluorination gas. 47 is a flow meter, and 48 is a valve. In this example, the high-pressure cylinder 46 and the flow meter 47 are connected to the flow path of the gas introduction pipe 35, etc., to constitute the fluorine gas introduction means. Further, an exhaust gas treatment device 44 and a vacuum pump 43 are connected to the exhaust pipe 36. Thereby, the processing gas -37-200906720 is introduced into the processing chamber in the inner container 34 and discharged. In the above-mentioned processing chamber, a fan 38 to which a motor 37 capable of stirring a process gas is attached is provided. 41 is a cage 41 in which the workpiece 40 to be processed is loaded. In the atmosphere gas furnace 31, for example, the fluorine-based gas such as NF3 connected to the high-pressure cylinder 46 and introduced into the high-pressure cylinder 46 is introduced into the atmosphere gas furnace 3 1 and heated while being subjected to fluorination treatment. The exhaust pipe 36 draws out its gas by the action of the vacuum pump 43, and is non-toxic in the exhaust gas treatment device 44 and discharged to the outside. Subsequently, the carburizing treatment is performed by the carburizing gas generated by the above-described carburizing atmosphere gas device 30, and then the gas is discharged to the outside via the exhaust pipe 36 and the exhaust gas treatment device 44. By this series of operations, the gas carburizing apparatus 50 performs fluorination treatment and carburization treatment. Although various metal materials can be used as the material of the material 40 to be processed, an iron-based metal material is particularly preferably used. It is particularly preferable to use an austenitic metal typified by an austenitic stainless steel. The austenitic stainless steel is exemplified by, for example, an austenitic stainless steel containing 50% by weight or more of an iron component and 12% by weight or more of a chromium component containing nickel. Specific examples include a 1 8 - 8 series stainless steel material such as SUS304, SUS316, and SUS303S, or US 310S or 309 containing a chromium oxide of 25 wt% and a nickel content of 20 wt%, and further exemplified by a chromium content of 23 The weight% and molybdenum contain 2% by weight of austenite-pure iron 2-phase stainless steel or the like. Further, a heat-resistant steel cast steel containing SCH21 or SCH22 having a nickel content of 19 to 22% by weight, a chromium content of 20 to 27% by weight, and a carbon content of 0.25 to 0.45 wt% may also be suitably used as the austenitic stainless steel of the present invention. . Further, it contains 20 to 22% by weight of chromium, 3.2 to 4.5% by weight of nickel, and 8 to 10% by weight of manganese -38 to 200906720 'SUH35 of carbon 〇48 to 0.58% by weight, or contains chromium 13.5. A heat resistant steel such as ~16% by weight, a nickel of 24 to 27% by weight, and a molybdenum of 1 to 1.5% by weight of SUH660 or the like can also be suitably used as the austenitic stainless steel of the present invention. Thus, by using a low carbon containing nickel and chromium, it is also suitable for use as the austenitic stainless steel of the present invention, which can provide excellent corrosion resistance and does not precipitate a chromium compound, and retains a non-magnetic austenitic stainless steel. The surface layer portion forms a carbon solid solution hardened layer, and is a non-magnetic metal product excellent in abrasion resistance or uranium resistance. As described above, the base material used as the workpiece 4 is made of austenitic stainless steel, and by performing the above-described fluorination treatment and carburization treatment, the austenite solid formed on the base material at least in the surface layer portion can be formed. A carbon solid hardening layer having a carbon hardness higher than that of the base material. Here, the above fluorination treatment will be described in detail. The fluorine-based gas used in the above fluorination treatment is exemplified by a fluorine-based compound gas composed of nf3, bf3, CF4, HF, SF6, C2F6, WF6, CHF3, SiF4, C1F3 or the like. These may be used singly or in combination of two or more. Further, a fluorine-based gas containing fluorine in the molecule other than the above-mentioned gases can also be used as the fluorine-based gas of the present invention. Further, these gas-based gas compounds may be used as the above-mentioned atmosphere gas by F2 gas generated by thermal decomposition of a thermal decomposition apparatus or a previously prepared gas of :2. These fluorine compound gases and f2 gases may be used in combination. Among them, NF3 is the most practical among the fluorine-based gases used in the present invention. The NF3 is gas-formed at room temperature, has high chemical stability, and is easy to handle. These NF3 gases are generally used in a specific concentration range in combination with the -39-200906720% gas combination as described later. The various fluorine-based gases exemplified above may be used alone or in combination with an inert gas such as N2 gas. The concentration of the fluorine gas itself in the diluted gas is, for example, 10,000 to 100,000 ppm', preferably 20,000 to 70,000 ppm, more preferably 30,000 to 50,000 ppm, based on the volume. The fluorination treatment using the fluorine-based gas as the atmosphere gas is carried out by using an atmosphere gas furnace 31 like a muffle furnace, and the untreated processed material 40 is placed in the furnace under the fluorine gas atmosphere of the above concentration. The heating is maintained by this. In this case, the heating is carried out by, for example, maintaining the object to be treated 40 composed of austenitic stainless steel at 1,800 to 600 ° C, preferably at 200 to 450 ° C. The holding time of the workpiece 40 in the fluorine-based gas atmosphere is usually set to 1 minute to several hours. By subjecting the workpiece 40 to heat treatment in such a fluorine-based gas atmosphere, the non-acting film containing Cr204 formed on the surface of the austenitic stainless steel is changed into a fluorinated film. The above-mentioned inactive film is not likely to be carburized in the past, but by performing the fluorination treatment, the above-mentioned inactive film changes to a fluoride film. It is considered that the fluorinated film is more likely to be infiltrated by carbon atoms used in carburization than the non-active film, and the surface of the austenitic stainless steel is subjected to the above-mentioned fluorination treatment to become a surface state in which carbon atoms are easily permeable. Next, the surface of the above austenitic stainless steel is carburized at the same time as and/or after the above fluorination treatment. In the carburizing treatment, the austenitic stainless steel itself is heated at a carburizing temperature of 680 ° C or lower -40 to 200906720, and the above-mentioned carburizing gas is used in a furnace gas in a gas atmosphere for carburizing. In the gas atmosphere for carburizing, the carbon source gas such as propane gas may be rich as needed. Therefore, the carburization treatment of the present invention can be carried out in an extremely low temperature range as compared with the previously known carburization treatment. The temperature during the carburizing treatment, that is, the carburizing temperature is 680 ° C or less, that is, preferably 400 to 68 (TC temperature. If the carburizing temperature exceeds 680 ° C, due to the mother of the austenitic stainless steel The material itself softens, and the carburized carbon atoms are combined with the solid-melting chromium to produce chromium carbides. The amount of chromium contained in the base material itself reduces the uranium resistance of the surface layer to a large extent to invade the solid solution. In the state of the carbon layer, the amount of carbon is reduced, the strength of the base material or the corrosion resistance is lowered, and the magnetic properties are increased. For the same reason, the temperature of the carburization treatment is preferably in the range of 400 to 600 t: The temperature range of 400 to 5 50 ° C, preferably 45 0 to 500 ° C. In the present invention, by performing the above-mentioned fluorination treatment, carburization treatment in such an extremely low temperature is possible in the carburization treatment. Almost no chromium carbide particles are formed, and carbon invades and solidifies in the base material to increase the crystal lattice size and form a carbon solid hardening layer on the surface layer. By doing so, the carbon diffuses and penetrates in the surface portion of the austenitic stainless steel. Deep and uniform formation of carbon solid hardening In the austenite phase of the base phase, the carbon diffusion layer is in a state in which a large amount of C atoms invade and solidify to cause lattice expansion, and the hardness is remarkably improved as compared with the base material, and the carbon atoms are hardly related to the base material. The chromium in the form forms a carbide such as Cr7C3 or Cr23C6 and is intrinsically solidified in the crystal lattice, so that the carbon solid solution layer is substantially free of -41 - 200906720 chromium carbide particles and the molten chromium in the base material The amount does not decrease, so it can maintain the same degree of corrosion resistance as the base material. In addition, the surface roughness of the austenitic stainless steel subjected to carburization as described above hardly deteriorates, and there is no dimensional change due to expansion. Produces magnetism. Therefore, the surface roughness is reduced or the dimensional change is small, and the surface modification can be performed with better precision. In the 'austenitic stainless steel, especially the stable austenitic stainless steel containing a large amount of nickel or containing molybdenum The stability of the austenitic stainless steel, the corrosion resistance of the carbon diffusion layer is better. The carburizing treatment can be started after the fluorination treatment, and the carburization treatment can be started simultaneously with the start of the fluorination treatment. After the fluorination treatment is started, the carburization treatment is started after the completion of the carburization treatment. After the fluorination treatment is completed, the carburization treatment is performed, and the surface treated with the fluorination treatment can be compared with pure carburization. The atmospheric gas diffuses and permeates more carbon atoms, and is advantageous when the surface strength is high and the hardening depth is increased, because the surface hardness is effectively increased. The boring treatment is started, and the fluorination treatment is started. The surface diffusion of fluorination generally proceeds to diffuse carbon, and is advantageous when the surface strength is high and the depth of hardening is increased. As described above, the apparatus and method for generating an atmosphere for carburizing in the present embodiment, by using hydrogen carbide The gas, the oxygen gas, and the water vapor are catalytically reacted with the catalyst, and a combustion reaction and a conversion reaction of the hydrocarbon gas are simultaneously generated to generate a carburizing atmosphere gas rich in hydrogen gas and having a high concentration of carbon monoxide gas. As described above, since the oxygen-based gas is used as the raw material without using air, an atmosphere for carburizing having a high carbon potential can be obtained. Further, since steam-42-200906720 is used as a raw material, the explosion limit can be lowered and the safety can be greatly improved as compared with a device using only hydrocarbon gas and oxygen as a raw material. Therefore, the reactor structure itself can be simplified as compared with a device in which oxygen is introduced from the introduction line of the system, and the occurrence of a medium having a disordered oxygen concentration or deterioration of a catalyst can be greatly reduced. Further, the cost of the raw material gas is also relatively low, and the carburizing gas having a high carbon potential can be generated at a low cost and safely. Further, an atmosphere rich in H2 gas can be obtained, and unreacted carbon particles in the carburization treatment step can be suppressed. When the raw material gas system is mixed with water vapor in advance, and the oxygen gas is combined with the oxygen gas and introduced into the reactor 1, the mixing of the hydrocarbon gas of the combustible gas with the oxygen gas can be shortened. The flow path through which the gas passes is advantageous in terms of safety. In the above-mentioned raw material gas system, when the oxygen-based gas and the steam are mixed in advance, and the hydrocarbon gas is combined with the hydrocarbon gas and introduced into the reactor 1, the mixed gas of the hydrocarbon-based gas in which the combustible gas is combined is used. As the oxygen concentration becomes lower, the explosion limit is further reduced, which is advantageous in terms of safety. The raw material gas is configured such that the molar ratio 02/C of C in the oxygen-based gas and the hydrocarbon-based gas is 0.3 or more and 0.5 or less, and H20 in the steam and C in the hydrocarbon-based gas. When the ratio of the hydrocarbon gas to the oxygen gas and the water vapor is set to be a ratio of the molar ratio of H20/C to 0.3 or less, the concentration of C 0 in the carburized gas formed is high, and the carbon potential is high. Atmosphere gas. When the supply amount of the raw material gas is controlled so as to automatically change the supply amount of the oxygen-based gas and the water in accordance with the fluctuation in the supply amount of the hydrocarbon-based gas, a carburizing gas having a substantially constant CO concentration is often obtained, so that the carburizing gas is obtained. -43- 200906720 The amount of volume generated can be changed. In the reactor 1 described above, by using a Rh-modified (Ni-Ce〇2)-Pt catalyst, the combustion reaction of the hydrocarbon-based gas and the conversion reaction are simultaneously carried out in the same reaction zone, by allowing an exothermic reaction. The conversion reaction between the combustion reaction and the endothermic reaction proceeds simultaneously in the same reaction zone, and since the heat energy generated by the combustion reaction can be utilized as a heat source for the conversion reaction, it is extremely energy-efficient. Further, an exothermic reaction and an endothermic reaction occur simultaneously in the reaction zone, so that heat neutralization can be caused and the operation can be performed in a state of thermal equilibrium. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the temperature rise of the reaction zone as compared with the case where the catalyst combustion reaction is separately performed in the reactor 1, for example, the selection of the heat resistant material used in the reactor 1 or the heat resistant structure of the reactor 1 itself is Not so high temperature specifications are sufficient to use 'and therefore can save equipment costs. In addition, the temperature of the material gas supplied to the inlet of the catalyst layer can be lowered, and coal can be suppressed from being thermally decomposed by the decomposition of hydrocarbon, and the risk of fire can be avoided. The preheating heater 16 for preheating the raw material gas introduced into the reactor 1 is controlled by the preheating heater 16 when the temperature of the raw material gas supplied to the reactor 1 is controlled to 300 to 45 ° C. Operate efficiently in a state of thermal equilibrium. [Embodiment 2] FIG. 10 is a view showing the apparatus 30 for generating an atmosphere gas for carburizing, wherein the enthalpy of the oxygen-based gas in the raw material and the molar ratio of C to 02/C in the hydrocarbon-based gas are used for carburization. The result of the gas. Further, at this time, H20/C was set to 0.20', and the supply temperature of the material gas was set to 450 °C. -44 - 200906720 As can be seen from the figure, when 〇2/C is set to 0.3 or more and 〇·5 or less, the concentration of CO in the generated reform gas becomes high, and a carbonized gas having a high carbon potential can be obtained. Fig. 11 shows the result of the carburization gas generated by the change of the molar ratio H2〇/C of c in the water vapor in the raw material and the molar ratio H2〇/C of c in the carbonized ammonia-based gas in the apparatus 30 for generating the carburizing atmosphere gas. . Further, at this time, 〇2/C is set to 0.40, and the supply temperature of the material gas is set to 45 〇〇c 0. From the figure, it can be understood that 'the conversion gas generated when H2〇/C is set to 0·3 or less The CO concentration becomes high, and a carburizing gas having a high carbon potential can be obtained.
