Description

Method and device for purifying and concentrating HIx phase of thermochemical sulfur-iodine cyclic hydrogen production
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of sulfur-iodine cyclic hydrogen production, in particular to a method and a device for purifying and concentrating HIx phase of thermochemical sulfur-iodine cyclic hydrogen production.
Background
Hydrogen energy is a secondary energy source, also known as a high efficiency source of zero pollution, which can be produced by a variety of methods. In addition, the fuel can be directly converted into electric energy and water in the combustion process, no pollutant is discharged, and the fuel has a great advantage compared with some traditional chemical dyes. Hydrogen energy can be applied in a large scale in a variety of fields including industry, construction industry, traffic, etc., with end use applications achieving low carbonization and zero pollution goals. The water can produce hydrogen through thermal dissociation, but the reaction needs high temperature above 2500 ℃, the sulfur-iodine cycle hydrogen production method divides the decomposition reaction of water into a plurality of steps, so that the reaction temperature can be reduced, the problem of hydrogen-oxygen separation can be avoided, and sulfur dioxide and iodine used in the cycle can be recycled. The Sulfur Iodine (SI) cycle was first proposed by the us atomic energy (General atomic) company in the 1970 s. Due to the great advantages, the full-flow phase process is easy to run continuously, has high energy utilization efficiency, is completely closed, and can be matched with nuclear energy or solar energy. The sulfur-iodine cycle has the potential of large-scale and low-cost hydrogen production. Thermochemical sulfur-iodine cycle (SI cycle) consists essentially of three steps of reactions:
SO 2 + 2H 2 O +I 2 = H 2 SO 4 + 2HI (333-393K);
2H 2 SO 4 = 2SO 2 +2H 2 O + O 2 (1123K);
2HI = H 2 + I 2 (773K)。
the sulfur-iodine circulation system comprises three subsystems, a Bunsen reaction subsystem, H 2 SO 4 And the decomposition subsystem is HI decomposition subsystem. First, sulfur dioxide and excess iodine and excess water undergo a Bunsen reaction to produce a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and hydroiodic acid. Under the condition of excessive iodine and water, the solution can spontaneously generate liquid-liquid delamination phenomenon. The upper light phase solution is sulfuric acid phase, mainly sulfuric acid solution, and the lower heavy phase is hydroiodic acid phase(HIx), mainly HI-I 2 -H 2 The ternary mixed solution of O inevitably contains a small amount of sulfuric acid impurities due to the limitation of liquid-liquid delamination. Since the separated HIx phase solution contains impurities, and the impurities contained therein have a large influence on the subsequent processes, it is necessary to conduct purification treatment, i.e., to carry out small amounts of HI and H by the reverse reaction of Bunsen reaction 2 SO 4 Reconversion to I 2 、SO 2 、H 2 S and H 2 O. The Bunsen reaction is endothermic, so that under certain conditions (temperature>120 ℃ can initiate the following side reactions:
H 2 SO 4 +8HI=H 2 S+4I 2 +4H 2 O;
H 2 SO 4 +2HI=SO 2 +I 2 +2H 2 O。
in the environment with higher temperature, H 2 S and SO 2 Very low solubility in water, H 2 S and SO 2 Escape from the liquid for purification purposes. After purification of the HIx phase solution, concentration is required to increase the HI concentration to an ultra-constant boiling state. Then rectifying and separating by a conventional rectifying tower, wherein the bottom kettle liquid is I-containing 2 The HIx solution with higher concentration, while the rectification at the top of the tower is HI with high concentration, and then enters into a HI decomposition reactor to be decomposed into hydrogen and iodine simple substance at about 450 ℃. H 2 SO 4 Similar to the HIx phase operation, multiple flash stages are required to increase H 2 SO 4 Is then introduced into H 2 SO 4 Decomposition of the reactor into SO 2 、O 2 And H 2 O, thereby forming a complete closed loop. The whole system only needs to continuously supplement water and heat, and other substances can be recycled, so that high-purity hydrogen and oxygen can be obtained.
To ensure the subsequent separation of the hydriodic acid phase (HIx) and sulfuric acid phase, an excess of I is added to the system 2 . The solid iodine is purple black glossy flaky crystals, is easy to sublimate and sublimate, and is extremely easy to precipitate and deposit at the bottom of the container and block the pipeline. H 2 SO 4 And HI are decomposed to generate high-temperature mixed gas, which is required to be condensed and cooled firstAnd then returned to the Bunsen reaction tank, which causes a great deal of energy waste.
CN107904617a discloses a method and apparatus for producing hydrogen by electrochemical decomposition of HI in sulfur-iodine cycle hydrogen production, but electrochemical methods consume electric energy, contrary to the original purpose of thermochemistry; meanwhile, the corrosion resistance requirement on the electrode material is extremely high, and the manufacturing cost is high; the cell receptor volume is limited and it is difficult to realize large-scale industrial applications. CN107944217a provides a modeling method for HI concentration rectifying tower in iodine-sulfur cycle hydrogen production, solves the problem of HI concentration and separation rectifying in iodine-sulfur cycle hydrogen production, does not mention actual process equipment, simplifies the material, and omits impurity entrainment in HIx phase. CN101830443a provides a new process for purifying sulfuric acid phase and hydroiodic acid phase in the sulfur-iodine cycle, but introduces a mixed gas of oxygen and inert gas, which is unfavorable for the later separation to obtain high purity hydrogen. CN114852960a provides a method and apparatus for separating, concentrating and purifying two phases in sulfur-iodine cyclic hydrogen production, which uses gradual pressure decrease to realize step separation of HI gas, but does not use heat of HI decomposed high-temperature gas, and does not use the heat of the HI decomposed high-temperature gas to separate the non-decomposed HI from H 2 O is separated, and repeated concentration causes energy waste; CN114195094a provides a full-flow method and apparatus for preparing hydrogen by thermochemical sulfur-iodine cycle, which is to introduce the high-temperature mixed gas generated after sulfuric acid decomposition into the downstream HIx solution to make a large amount of water in the HIx system be carried away by vaporization, so as to achieve the purpose of concentrating HI solution, but not using the heat of the high-temperature gas after HI decomposition, and at the same time, not using the undigested HI and H 2 O separates, and repeated concentration causes energy waste.
The iodine-sulfur circulation hydrogen production process has high hydrogen production efficiency and no CO 2 The emission is favorable for carbon neutralization, so that the iodine-sulfur cycle is expected to become a clean, economical and sustainable large-scale hydrogen production method. However, the equipment system of the conventional iodine-sulfur cycle is very complex and huge, and comprises a Bunsen reaction tower, a liquid-liquid separation tower, HI and H 2 SO 4 Purification column, condensation column, several HI and H 2 SO 4 Rectifying column, HI and H 2 SO 4 Decomposing tower, buffer tank and multipleA heater, etc. The presence of excess water in the system requires distillation for HI solution and H 2 SO 4 The concentration of the solution consumes a lot of energy. The existence of excessive iodine is easy to deposit at the bottom of the container to increase the recovery difficulty, and the pipeline is easy to be blocked after precipitation. From H 2 SO 4 And the high-temperature mixed gas generated in the HI decomposing tower must be cooled first to enter the Bunsen reaction tower, and the process causes energy waste.
