Description

Method and device for producing hydrogen and co-producing sulfuric acid by thermochemical zinc-sulfur-iodine cycle decomposition of water
Technical Field
The invention relates to a technology for circularly producing hydrogen by zinc, sulfur and iodine, belongs to the related technical field of preparing hydrogen by thermal circulation, and particularly relates to a method and a device for producing hydrogen and co-producing sulfuric acid by circularly decomposing water by thermochemical zinc, sulfur and iodine.
Background
Hydrogen energy is considered as one of the most ideal clean energy sources, and the only product of combustion is water, so that the method has no problem of environmental pollution. The energy density of the hydrogen energy is large, and the conversion efficiency is high. Besides being used as an energy source, hydrogen is an important chemical raw material. More than half of the hydrogen is used in the important chemical processes of ammonia synthesis, petroleum cracking and the like in the world every year. At present, the hydrogen production method which is most widely used in the world is still hydrogen production by fossil fuel, but with the gradual exhaustion of fossil energy and the increasing severity of the pressure of carbon dioxide emission reduction, a large-scale, low-cost, sustainable and clean hydrogen production mode is urgently searched.
At the end of the last century, through series screening and evaluation by numerous researchers, the thermochemical sulfur-iodine cycle water decomposition hydrogen production technology is considered to be the most promising hydrogen production mode. It takes water as raw material, and decomposes the water into hydrogen and oxygen by a series of chemical reactions and using heat energy. The heat energy required by the whole system can be matched by solar energy or nuclear energy and the like. The traditional thermochemical sulfur-iodine closed cycle reaction is as follows:
SO 2 + 2H 2 O +I 2 = H 2 SO 4 + 2HI (85℃)
2H 2 SO 4 = 2SO 2 +2H 2 O + O 2 (850℃)
2HI = H 2 + I 2 (450℃)。
the temperature required for the metal oxide to achieve direct thermal decomposition is relatively high. To date, zn/ZnO is one of the most studied systems in a two-step thermochemical cycle, and this system has been intensively studied and developed. The whole process comprises the following steps:
2ZnO = 2Zn + O 2
Zn + H 2 O = ZnO + H 2
Zn + CO 2 = ZnO + CO。
the first step of ZnO pyrolysis is an endothermic process with the desired reaction temperature of 2058 c and the products of it are zinc vapour and oxygen, which eventually need to be separated or quenched to prevent recombination of the products. The second step is that: CO 2 2 And H 2 The decomposition reaction of O must be carried out at a temperature exceeding the melting point of zinc (420 ℃ C., 1 atm). However, when molten zinc reacts with water vapor or carbon dioxide, a layer of ZnO is formed to float on the melt, preventing further reaction.
In order to avoid direct decomposition of metal oxides at high temperatures, thermochemical ZnSI circulation systems have been developed, which consist in particular of the following reactions:
I 2 + SO 2 + 2H 2 O = 2HI+H 2 SO 4
2HI = H 2 + I 2 (450℃)
2H 2 SO 4 = 2SO 2 + 2H 2 O + O 2 (850℃)
Zn + CO 2 = ZnO + CO(350-900℃)
ZnO + 2HI = ZnI 2 + H 2 O
ZnI 2 = Zn + I 2 (600-900℃)。
the zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating system has the following general reactions:
H 2 O + CO 2 = CO + H 2 +O 2
the traditional zinc-sulfur-iodine circulating hydrogen production system has complex reaction steps and needs to input excessive iodine and H 2 O to reach the HIx phase and H 2 SO 4 Phase separation increases the energy consumption of the subsequent concentration step; subject to HI-H 2 The azeotropic property of O can not obtain HI solution with high concentration under normal pressure (the azeotropic point of the HI solution is 57 percent under normal pressure), and the HI decomposition efficiency is low (only 22 percent under the existence of catalyst), thus seriously influencing the production rate of hydrogen; the sulfuric acid decomposition requires a high-temperature environment, so that the energy consumption is increased, and the requirement on equipment is high; zn and CO 2 The reaction belongs to gas-solid reaction, and the generated ZnO is attached to the surface of the zinc to block Zn and CO 2 Further reaction of (2); at present pure CO 2 The cost of complementation is high, and economic benefit is uncertain.
The existing SI systems are all circulating systems, i.e. the raw material is only water, I 2 And SO 2 Is recycledThe HI must be decomposed to produce hydrogen, and the decomposition of HI brings I 2 And (4) generating. But SO 2 Whether the cycle of (a) is necessary and reasonable or not still needs to be investigated. Need for sulfuric acid decomposition>The high temperature of 800 ℃ has considerable demand on heat, higher demand on catalyst and reactor materials, and the whole system can be greatly simplified if the sulfuric acid in the SI system is not decomposed any more. And carbon-free sulfur-containing raw materials can be selected to realize CO of the system 2 And (4) zero emission. Sulfuric acid has a huge market as product output, and is widely applied to industries such as chemical industry, national defense, metallurgy, pharmacy and the like.
Performing ring opening treatment on the ZnSI system, directly outputting sulfuric acid, and simultaneously generating HI and H by using Zn and Bunsen reaction 2 SO 4 The hydrogen is directly prepared by the reaction, the problems of low concentration (57%) of HI azeotropic solution, low HI decomposition rate (only 22% in the presence of a catalyst) and the like are avoided, and the generated ZnI 2 And ZnSO 4 Decomposition to form Zn, I 2 ZnO (into the next cycle) and SO 3 (reaction with water to form sulfuric acid) the chemical reaction is as follows:
SO 2 + 2H 2 O +I 2 = H 2 SO 4 + 2HI
2Zn + 2HI + H 2 SO 4 = ZnI 2 +ZnSO 4 + 2H 2
2ZnO + 2HI +H 2 SO 4 = ZnI 2 + ZnSO 4 + 2H 2 O
ZnI 2 = Zn + I 2 (600-1000℃)
ZnSO 4 = ZnO + SO 3 (>900℃)
SO 3 + H 2 O = H 2 SO 4
the overall reaction of the open-circuit ZnSI system is as follows:
2H 2 O + SO 2 = H 2 + H 2 SO 4
the technology and literature data disclosed at present are studied on the process for preparing hydrogen by thermochemical ZnSI cycle, wherein patent CN108821315A discloses thermochemical cycle mineralization of CO 2 Simultaneous decomposition of H 2 O system H 2 Method and apparatus for recycling hydrogen production with CO 2 Mineralization is organically combined, but the HI solution is concentrated by an electrodialysis method, so that the requirement on the corrosion resistance of an electrode material is extremely high, and the manufacturing cost is high; the electrolytic cell is limited in volume and difficult to realize large-scale industrial application. CN102583239B provides a thermochemical cyclic decomposition of CO 2 And H 2 O to CO and H 2 The method and the device realize CO 2 The objective of abatement and hydrogen production, but the problem of the HI solution being subject to azeotropic point and the hydrogen production rate being subject to low HI decomposition rate, is not yet solved. Patent CN108715438A discloses thermochemical cycle mineralization of CO 2 Simultaneous decomposition of H 2 Preparation of H from O 2 Coproduction of H 2 SO 4 Method of innovatively mixing CO 2 The mineralization technology is organically combined with the thermochemical sulfur-iodine open-circuit cycle decomposition of water to produce hydrogen, and CO is mineralized and fixed under mild reaction conditions 2 And simultaneously co-producing H with high added value 2 And H 2 SO 4 However, the problem that the hydrogen production rate is subject to a low decomposition rate of HI is not solved.
