Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of reforming hydrogen production, in particular to a stacked microchannel reforming hydrogen production reactor.
Background
Nowadays, environmental problems are becoming more severe, and energy conservation and emission reduction become one of the major problems facing society. The hydrogen energy has the characteristics of high efficiency, cleanness, green and sustainable development and the like, and is regarded as one of clean energy sources with the most development potential in the new century. With the promulgation of new energy policies in various regions, hydrogen energy becomes a popular novel energy source, and has wide application prospects in the industrial field.
At present, the hydrogen production modes are mainly divided into the traditional hydrogen production by fossil energy and the hydrogen production by novel energy. The traditional fossil energy hydrogen production mainly comprises petroleum hydrogen production, coal hydrogen production and natural gas hydrogen production. Although the hydrogen production by fossil energy is still the main hydrogen production mode at present, the pollution to the environment is large and the standard of 'green hydrogen' is not met. The novel energy source hydrogen production mainly comprises biomass hydrogen production, water electrolysis hydrogen production, solar hydrogen production and alcohol substance hydrogen production. Wherein, the biomass hydrogen production can be operated continuously and stably, the hydrogen production cost is increased by electrolyzing water to produce hydrogen, and the solar hydrogen production is greatly influenced by the environment. The alcohol substance hydrogen production mainly comprises methanol reforming hydrogen production, and methanol is cracked into H under certain temperature and pressure conditions 2 Reacting with carbon-containing gas such as CO, CO and steam to generate H 2 With CO 2 And then removing CO by pressure swing adsorption 2 Finally obtaining high-purity H 2 . The hydrogen production process by methanol reforming is simple, raw materials are easy to obtain, the production mode is stable and reliable, and the method is suitable for medium and small scale hydrogen production.
Due to the special physical and chemical properties of hydrogen, the storage and transportation of hydrogen become a significant challenge limiting the development of hydrogen. Compared with other hydrogen production modes, the methanol reforming hydrogen production is not influenced by external environmental factors, the raw materials are low in price, the hydrogen production is stable and safe, and the methanol reforming hydrogen production micro-reactor is small in size, simple in structure and convenient to transport. The methanol is used for on-site hydrogen production through the reforming microreactor, so that the hydrogen is supplied in time, the method is more suitable for a mobile on-line hydrogen production scene, and a new solution is provided for the storage and transportation of the hydrogen.
The methanol reforming hydrogen production micro-reactor mainly comprises a cylindrical micro-reactor and a plate micro-reactor. The cylindrical microreactor is simple to process and assemble, but the cylindrical microreactor has the defects of high pressure drop, uneven temperature distribution and difficulty in integrated amplification due to the cylindrical structural design; the plate-type microreactor is a stacked assembly mode, each layer of the microreactor is relatively independent, the assembly is simple, the microreactor has a higher heat exchange area, the temperature distribution is uniform, and the integrated amplification is easier. An excellent reforming hydrogen production micro-channel reactor is very important to the hydrogen production performance.
The microchannel reactor with uniformly distributed flow velocity and concentration, which is proposed in patent document No. CN111196596A, can make the flow velocity and concentration of fluid more uniform, but the parting flow channel at the front end of the reaction plate is too complicated, the space sacrifice on the reaction plate is large, the utilization rate is low, and the space volume of the reactor is enlarged; the hydrogen production micro-reformer with the fractal structure catalyst carrier, which is proposed in the patent document with the publication number of CN110155946B, can realize good hydrogen production performance, but the structure of the reaction carrier plate is more complex, and the manufacturing cost is increased.
The existing microchannel reforming hydrogen production reactor can only achieve partial excellent performances, and the excellent performances such as flow velocity distribution uniformity, lower pressure drop, high hydrogen conversion rate, utilization rate of a reaction plate space and the like are not integrated. Therefore, the development of a microchannel reforming hydrogen production reactor with better performance is a problem to be solved in the field.
