Description
本發明係關於一種生質能源的金屬鋅製作方法，特別是一種提升製作效率且節省製程耗能的金屬鋅製作方法。The invention relates to a method for preparing metal zinc of biomass energy, in particular to a method for preparing metal zinc which improves production efficiency and saves process energy.
金屬鋅，係能與其他有色金屬混合為合金，以作為電鍍、壓鑄或機械製造等物料來源，更可以作為太陽能電池之電極，例如鋅銅電池、鋅空氣燃料電池。惟，金屬鋅係容易與空氣中的氧產生反應，而於該金屬鋅表面生成氧化鋅層，甚至應用於該鋅空氣燃料電池內的鋅電極，係容易於電池完全放電後產生氧化鋅的沉澱，該緻密之氧化鋅雖能對該鋅金屬形成保護，但相對造成該金屬鋅於上述應用上的不便。Metal zinc, which can be alloyed with other non-ferrous metals, can be used as a source of materials for electroplating, die-casting or mechanical manufacturing, and can also be used as an electrode for solar cells, such as zinc-copper batteries and zinc-air fuel cells. However, the metal zinc system easily reacts with oxygen in the air, and a zinc oxide layer is formed on the surface of the metal zinc, and even the zinc electrode used in the zinc air fuel cell is easy to precipitate zinc oxide after the battery is completely discharged. Although the dense zinc oxide can protect the zinc metal, it is relatively inconvenient for the metal zinc to be used in the above application.
目前，係以固態碳來將氧化鋅還原為金屬鋅，然而，固態碳與氧化鋅的還原反應需於高達1200K之溫度下，故以固態碳作為還原劑還原氧化鋅的吸熱量明顯較高，而相對需提供較高的能量方能產生作用，以至於進行還原反應之熱耗能明顯增加。甚至，以該固態碳作為還原劑，相較於其他液態及氣態之還原劑，該固態碳與該氧化新之接觸及混合均勻度較低，容易造成有該固態碳未完全反應之缺點。如此，傳統氧化鋅還原形成金屬鋅的過程，往往需耗費額外的時間及成本，故始終無法達到符合經濟效益需求之目的。At present, solid zinc is used to reduce zinc oxide to metal zinc. However, the reduction reaction between solid carbon and zinc oxide needs to be at a temperature of up to 1200 K, so the heat absorption of zinc oxide by solid carbon as a reducing agent is significantly higher. However, it is relatively necessary to provide higher energy to produce a function, so that the heat loss of the reduction reaction is significantly increased. Even with the solid carbon as the reducing agent, the solid carbon is less in contact with the oxidation and the mixing uniformity is lower than other liquid and gaseous reducing agents, which easily causes the disadvantage that the solid carbon does not completely react. Thus, the process of traditional zinc oxide reduction to form metal zinc often requires extra time and cost, so it is impossible to achieve the purpose of meeting economical needs.
隨著生質能轉換技術的不斷提升，生質能的轉換利用已普遍施行於化學工業的各式製程。其中，廢水中所挾帶的氫分子及氧分子更可以廣泛回收加以利用，以期望透過氫分子與該氧化鋅層的反應，將該氧化鋅層還原成金屬鋅，達到降低去除該氧化鋅層所需耗費的能源，且同時達到環境廢水減量回收再利用之功效。With the continuous improvement of biomass energy conversion technology, the conversion and utilization of biomass energy has been widely implemented in various processes in the chemical industry. Among them, the hydrogen molecules and oxygen molecules carried in the wastewater can be widely recovered and utilized, and it is desired to reduce the zinc oxide layer to metal zinc by the reaction of hydrogen molecules with the zinc oxide layer, thereby reducing the removal of the zinc oxide layer. The energy required to consume, and at the same time achieve the effect of recycling and recycling of environmental wastewater.
傳統電解水之方式係於常溫常壓狀態進行，然而，液態水分子中的氫分子與氧分子間鍵結強度，係不容許氫分子與氧分子產生分離，必須自外界通入強電流，使得該液態水分子到達電解能階時，方能使該液態水分子經由電解產岀氣態氫分子及氣態氧分子。如此，不僅需消耗大量電能，更須透過長時間電解作用才能釋出足量的氣態氫分子，以致於氣態氫分子的產量明顯受限於電解水分子的反應時間，進而導致氣態氫分子生產效率低落，相對影響後續還原氧化鋅，以生成金屬鋅的效率及產量。The traditional method of electrolyzing water is carried out at normal temperature and normal pressure. However, the bonding strength between hydrogen molecules and oxygen molecules in liquid water molecules does not allow separation of hydrogen molecules from oxygen molecules, and it is necessary to introduce a strong current from the outside. When the liquid water molecules reach the electrolytic energy level, the liquid water molecules can produce gaseous hydrogen molecules and gaseous oxygen molecules via electrolysis. In this way, not only a large amount of electric energy is consumed, but also a sufficient amount of gaseous hydrogen molecules can be released through long-time electrolysis, so that the production of gaseous hydrogen molecules is obviously limited by the reaction time of the electrolyzed water molecules, thereby leading to the production efficiency of gaseous hydrogen molecules. Low, relatively affecting the subsequent reduction of zinc oxide to produce metal zinc efficiency and yield.
再且，於電解液態水生成氣態氫分子及氣態氧分子的過程，往往僅將該氣態氫分子用以還原氧化鋅生成金屬鋅，而氣態氧分子則無法有效加以利用，著實浪費且不符合能源再利用之目標。Moreover, in the process of generating gaseous hydrogen molecules and gaseous oxygen molecules in the electrolyte water, the gaseous hydrogen molecules are often used to reduce zinc oxide to form metal zinc, and the gaseous oxygen molecules cannot be effectively utilized, which is wasteful and incompatible with energy. The goal of reuse.

請參照第1圖所示，其係為本發明一較佳實施例，該金屬鋅製作方法係包含一前置步驟S1、一電解步驟S2及一還原步驟S3。Referring to FIG. 1 , which is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the method for fabricating metal zinc includes a pre-step S1, an electrolysis step S2, and a reduction step S3.
該前置步驟S1係將水轉變為高溫高壓狀態。更詳言之，係於常溫下，對該液態水進行加壓，當該液態水之壓力值高於1大氣壓後，遂使該液態水轉變為高壓態；接著，對高壓態之液態水進行加熱，使高壓態之液態水逐步加熱至高溫後，該液態水係轉變為高溫高壓態(如化學式一所示)。The pre-step S1 converts the water into a high temperature and high pressure state. More specifically, the liquid water is pressurized at a normal temperature, and when the pressure of the liquid water is higher than 1 atmosphere, the liquid water is converted into a high pressure state; then, the liquid water in a high pressure state is subjected to After heating, the liquid water in a high pressure state is gradually heated to a high temperature, and the liquid water is converted into a high temperature and high pressure state (as shown in Chemical Formula 1).
其中，如前所述之「常溫」約指298 K者，係屬熟悉該項技藝者所能理解，於下述內容係以「常溫」作為基準，溫度高於該常溫者，本發明於下所述稱為「高溫」；如前所述之「常壓」約指1大氣壓(atm)者，係屬熟悉該項技藝者所能理解；於下述內容係以「常壓」作為基準，溫度高於該常壓者，本發明於下所述稱為「高壓」。Among them, the "normal temperature" as mentioned above refers to 298 K, which is familiar to those skilled in the art. The following contents are based on "normal temperature", and the temperature is higher than the normal temperature. The term "atmospheric pressure" as mentioned above; as mentioned above, "atmospheric pressure" means about 1 atmosphere (atm), which is familiar to those skilled in the art; the following contents are based on "normal pressure". The temperature is higher than the atmospheric pressure, and the present invention is referred to as "high pressure" as described below.
舉例而言，本實施例係由一泵浦將該1大氣壓298K之液態水壓縮為20大氣壓330K之液態水，再予以進行逐步加熱，以生成400K之液態水。For example, in the present embodiment, the liquid water of 298K at 1 atmosphere is compressed into liquid water of 330K at 20 atmospheres by a pump, and then gradually heated to generate 400K of liquid water.
該電解步驟S2係將該高溫高壓液態水進行增溫增壓，使得該高溫高壓液態水到達臨界態，而生成臨界水，以將該臨界水電解生成超臨界態氫及氧。The electrolysis step S2 is to increase and supercharge the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid water, so that the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid water reaches a critical state, and generates critical water to electrolyze the critical water to generate supercritical hydrogen and oxygen.
更詳言之，於該電解步驟S2係將高溫高壓液態水再次以先加壓後升溫之方式，提高該高溫高壓液態水的壓力及溫度值，使得該高溫高壓液態水到達臨界態後，即刻轉變為臨界水。此時，該臨界水分子中的氫鍵鍵結強度明顯低於一般常溫常壓下之水分子，甚至於低電流的電解作用下，即能快速達到該臨界水分子的電解能階，以便輕易分離該臨界水分子中的氫分子及氧分子，進而生成超臨界態氫及氧(如化學式二所示)。More specifically, in the electrolysis step S2, the high temperature and high pressure liquid water is again pressurized and then heated to increase the pressure and temperature of the high temperature and high pressure liquid water, so that the high temperature and high pressure liquid water reaches a critical state immediately. Change to critical water. At this time, the hydrogen bond bond strength in the critical water molecule is significantly lower than that of the normal water temperature and normal pressure, and even under the action of low current electrolysis, the electrolysis energy level of the critical water molecule can be quickly reached, so that Hydrogen molecules and oxygen molecules in the critical water molecules are separated to generate supercritical hydrogen and oxygen (as shown in Chemical Formula 2).
舉例而言，本實施例係以逐步先加壓後升溫之方式，將20大氣壓400K之液態水壓縮至221大氣壓後，再逐步升溫至672K，以此轉變為臨界水；接著，通入電流進行電解反應，以到達該臨界水的電解能階後，即可自該臨界水分離岀氣態氫及氣態氧，且該氣態氫及氣態氧係維持於壓力為230大氣壓，及溫度為700K之超臨界狀態。其中，該氣態氫係用以作為後續合成金屬鋅的另一原料，而該液態氧係能加以回收儲存，以作為其他工業製程所需之用。For example, in this embodiment, the liquid water of 20 atmospheres of 400K is compressed to 221 atmospheres by gradually increasing the temperature after being pressurized first, and then gradually increasing to 672K, thereby converting into critical water; After the electrolysis reaction reaches the electrolysis energy level of the critical water, the gaseous hydrogen and the gaseous oxygen can be separated from the critical water, and the gaseous hydrogen and the gaseous oxygen are maintained at a pressure of 230 atm and a supercritical temperature of 700 K. status. Among them, the gaseous hydrogen is used as another raw material for the subsequent synthesis of metallic zinc, and the liquid oxygen can be recovered and stored for use in other industrial processes.
該還原步驟S3係將該超臨界態氫與固態氧化鋅進行反應，以將該氧化鋅還原生成金屬鋅。更詳言之，本實施例係以230大氣壓700K之超臨界氣態氫與額外添加之固態氧化鋅進行反應，以於充分還原作用下，將該固態氧化鋅還原生成金屬鋅(如化學式三所示)。The reducing step S3 is to react the supercritical hydrogen with the solid zinc oxide to reduce the zinc oxide to form metal zinc. More specifically, in this embodiment, the supercritical gaseous hydrogen at 230 atmospheres and 700 K is reacted with the additionally added solid zinc oxide to reduce the solid zinc oxide to form metallic zinc under sufficient reduction (as shown in Chemical Formula 3). ).
H2(g,T4,P4)+ZnO(s,T1) →Zn(s,T5)+H2O(g,T5,P5)；T5=730K,P5=77 atm [化學式三]H 2 (g, T4, P4) + ZnO (s, T1) → Zn (s, T5) + H 2 O (g, T5, P5) ; T5 = 730K, P5 = 77 atm [Chemical Formula 3]
如上述，本發明之金屬鋅製作方法，係能透過液態水分子間距離較氣態水分子間距離緊密之特性，輕易予以加壓升溫；並且，經由再次加壓升溫之過程，使液態水快速轉變為臨界水，以降低水分子中的氫鍵鍵結強度，而輕易於電解作用下達到氫分子及氧分子的解離能階，快速自該臨界水中分離岀超臨界之氣態氫及氣態氧，藉此提升氣態氫的生成效率，以由該超臨界氣態氫還原額外添加之固態氧化鋅而生成金屬鋅。如此，本發明之金屬鋅製作方法，係能利用臨界態達到提升液態水電解生成氣態氫之效率，且同時於短時間內增加該氣態氫的產出量，而能透過大量液態氫與該固態氧化鋅反應，以相對達到提升金屬鋅生成效率及產量之功效。As described above, the method for producing metal zinc according to the present invention is capable of easily heating and tempering through a characteristic that the distance between liquid water molecules is close to that of gaseous water molecules; and, by re-pressurizing the temperature, the liquid water is rapidly changed. It is a critical water to reduce the hydrogen bonding strength in water molecules, and easily achieve the dissociation energy level of hydrogen molecules and oxygen molecules under electrolysis, and rapidly separate the supercritical gaseous hydrogen and gaseous oxygen from the critical water. This increases the efficiency of the formation of gaseous hydrogen by the addition of the solid zinc oxide additionally added by the supercritical gaseous hydrogen to form metallic zinc. Thus, the method for producing metal zinc according to the present invention can utilize the critical state to increase the efficiency of liquid hydrogen electrolysis to generate gaseous hydrogen, and at the same time increase the output of the gaseous hydrogen in a short time, and can pass a large amount of liquid hydrogen and the solid state. The zinc oxide reaction is relatively effective in improving the efficiency and yield of metal zinc formation.
惟，本發明僅需透過液態水快速達到臨界態，便能以較低耗能自該臨界水電解產出超臨界態氫及氧，而達成本發明較佳功效。因此，係能選擇省略上述之前置步驟S1，而直接於該電解步驟S2中，將該液態水增溫增壓至臨界態，再以此重複如上所述各個步驟，達到如上所述之較佳功效。熟悉該技藝者係能理解上述實施例之用意，故實際應用時，係不受限於此實施例。However, the present invention only needs to rapidly reach a critical state through liquid water, and can produce supercritical hydrogen and oxygen from the critical water electrolysis with lower energy consumption, thereby achieving the better efficacy of the present invention. Therefore, it is optional to omit the above-mentioned pre-step S1, and directly pressurize the liquid water to a critical state directly in the electrolysis step S2, and then repeat the steps as described above to achieve the above-mentioned comparison.
