Abstract

The process for using catalytic oxidation method to remove explosive gas (hydrogen) from LOCA atomosphere of pressurized-water reactor in the condition of coexistance of more compounds features that the alkaline compound having permanent damage to catalyst is first removed in settling tube and rest of LOCA atomosphere takes part in H2-O2 compound reaction through catalytic bed where gamma-alumina supported noble metal catalyst is used, returning the non-condensed gas with hydrogen content less than 0.1 V% back to safe shell. Its advantage is no exhaustion of radioactive substance.

Description

Catalytic hydrogen-eliminating technological process for nuclear energy system
The present invention relates to a kind of in nuclear power system the catalytic hydrogen-eliminating process.System utilizes catalysis H 2-O 2Composite algorithm is eliminated the hydrogen in the nuclear power system containment.
Be one of main path of interior quite over a long time from now on solution energy shortage problem progressively with nuclear energy replacement and additional limited mineral fuel and waterpower equal energy source.One of subject matter that fears are entertained that at present is the safe reliability of nuclear power device.Concerning pressurized-water reactor, in case chilled water shortage accident (LOCA) takes place, because the reaction of zirconium and water vapour etc., can within a few hours, discharge the hydrogen of a great deal of (can reach hundreds of kilograms) and concentrate in the containment, can surpass explosion limits.At this moment, any sudden factor all can cause the nuclear power station blast.Therefore, control hydrogen discharges and the measure of eliminating hydrogen in the shell all is the important component part of nuclear power station regulating system.The method of control hydrogen concentration in the past has three kinds, i.e. inert gas dilution method, scavenging method (Zhang Qixia etc., " the chemical problem of pressurized water reactor " Atomic Energy Press, 1984) and ignition method (J.O.Henrie, U.S.P.4000978,1977; R.K.Kumar, Nuclear Engineering and Disign, 113,149,1989).More than three kinds of methods since a variety of causes will progressively be eliminated.And catalytic oxidation is to allow the airflow of hydrogen by beds H take place 2-O 2The catalytic reaction of compound (Cheng Shui) is come the method for dehydrogenation, and its advantage is to realize the outer loop of gas in the shell, does not cause the radioactive contamination to environment, and initiation temperature and hydrogen concentration are all very low, and device is simple, and is safe and reliable.But used usually oxidation catalyst for removing hydrogen is easily poisoned inactivation by water vapour at ambient temperature, thereby can not be used for the regulation and control of hydrogen concentration under the humid atmosphere in the LOCA containment.In recent years, the Soviet Union (В. Д. К e л л e р, et al. А Т о М Н а я Э Н e р г и я, 67 (5), 335,1989 years), West Germany (A.K.Chakraborty a. Kerntechnik, 1,53,1988, b.Ger.Offen.DE 3826503, nineteen ninety) and this laboratory (Wang Yan, scholar etc. in crossing, environmental science, 5 (2), 18,1984) work prove, passive catalytic dehydrogenation system can lean on the mode of natural convection to play a role under humid atmosphere, but this is only applicable to hydrogen concentration control in little space, and the hydrogen concentration that control in the whole containment just need increase catalyst surface area pro rata, the height of its cost, efficient low be difficult to received.Above-mentioned Chakraborty etc. once overcame contained CO, I in the atmosphere with the aluminium foil that adds coating (Pd-V-Pd-Pt or Ru) 2, poisonous substance such as water vapor is to H on the catalyzer 2-O 2The depression effect of recombination reaction.Not only complicated process of preparation, and cost also is very high.Once with improving the reaction bed temperature, the way that increases catalyst surface simultaneously made poisonous substance (boric acid, I to Berndt etc. (Chemie-Technik, 9 (2), 63,1980 years) 2Deng) from catalyst surface desorption as early as possible, and prevent that catalyst surface from being covered fully by the poisonous substance of desorption not, though under the condition of drafting, can keep dehydrogenation effect preferably, behind the short term tests, Pd/ γ-Al 2O 3Activity of such catalysts obviously reduces.The Soviet Union and Canada (W.R.C.Graham, Preprint of IAEA/CECWorkshop on Hydrogen Behavior and Mitigationin Water Reactors, Brussels, March, 4-8,1991) atomic energy research unit all be the H of moisture resistance 2-O 2Composite catalyst, but about the antitoxin thing of catalyzer (as H 3BO 3, I 2, alkali metal salt etc.) but report seldom of research work.Therefore, studying the antitoxin performance of this class catalyzer is to realize the key technical problem of LOCA hydrogen in the catalysis composite algorithm elimination nuclear power plant containment shell in the world today with finding out the operating conditions that makes composite catalyst energy long-term stable operation when loss of-coolant accident (LOCA) under the atmosphere of containment top.
The objective of the invention is: utilization can be suitable for forced circulation duct type (also being applicable to what natural convection drove) catalyzer hydrogen recombiner, gamma ray resistant irradiation, the technological process of appropriate design and each unit operations condition thereof, keep catalyzer under possible LOCA condition, high activity long-time running, residual hydrogen concentration are satisfied and to be returned containment requirement (≤0.1%).
The detailed description of the invention:
The present invention is directed to the plurality of impurities that coexists in the LOCA atmosphere, adopt the sedimentation process flow process to remove the component harmful to catalyzer, both guarantee high activity of catalyst, running steady in a long-term, saved huge water scrubber device (having avoided radioactive contamination of water simultaneously) again.
The present invention's several steps in the following order carries out:
(1) unstrpped gas (micro-boric acid is arranged simultaneously, NaOH, iodine, all the other are air) that contains hydrogen 1-3.8V% enters the settler that temperature is controlled at 140~160 ℃ from the top, part high-boiling-point impurity (NaOH, H 3BO 3) solution be deposited in the bottom.
(2) gas is discharged from the settler top exit and is entered the catalytic recombiner that temperature is controlled at 200~235 ℃, is containing active constituent platinum-palladium 0.3~0.05% (wt), and auxiliary agent is alkaline metal or earth alkali metal, and carrier is Al 2O 3The beds effect under carry out Hydrogen Oxygen reaction.
(3) reaction end gas is isolated H through condenser condenses 3BO 3, I 2Deng aqueous solution, inconduc is discharged from lower part outlet.
Settler of the present invention adds hot jacket by temperature control, the evaporation setting chamber, and compositions such as liquid level control valve and basin, its center of top has the charging nanubrium, and top one side has escape pipe.
Catalytic recombiner of the present invention adds hot jacket by temperature control, compositions such as beds, and its air intake opening is at the top, and the gas outlet is in the bottom.
