Abstract

A process for synthesizing ammonia includes such steps as heating the RE metal (or alloy) powder or block to the temp higher than the hydrogenation temp in the atmosphere preventing oxidizing and nitriding, introducing hydrogen gas to make the RE metal (or alloy) absorb hydrogen, introducing the mixture of oxygen and nitrogen gases or air, and chemical reaction. Its advantages are simple process and saving energy.

Description

A kind of method of synthetic ammonia
Technical field:
The invention belongs to the preparing technical field of ammonia.
Background technology:
20 beginning of the century Harber and Mittasch etc. have developed the iron catalyst of synthetic ammonia, lay a good foundation for the industrialization of ammonia is synthetic.At present preparation of industrialization ammonia is to make hydrogen and nitrogen at 100-600 normal atmosphere under catalyst action, realizes under 400-600 ℃ of condition.In order further to reduce temperature of reaction and pressure, countries in the world never stop the research and development to synthetic ammonia catalyst for a long time.Discoveries such as Aika in 1972 are that the ruthenium catalyst of carrier has higher activity to synthetic ammonia with the gac, and Britain BP company starts to develop industrialization and has highly active ruthenium catalyst after the eighties in 20th century.But at present catalyst for reaction takes place in countries in the world send as an envoy to hydrogen and the nitrogen of exploitation of all failing under lesser temps and pressure, can't realize that more normal temperature and pressure is synthetic, and therefore the operation of reaction is many, the equipment complexity, and energy consumption is higher.
As everyone knows, hydrogen and nitrogen can become active hydrogen and nitrogen under the condition of discharge.Have the scholar to utilize this theory, (under 260~2600Pa) conditions, synthesized ammonia with nitrogen, hydrogen stream by microwave or radio frequency discharge, but this method equipment bulky complex, and synthetic efficient is very low, energy consumption is also very high at subatmospheric.At present, under the absence of discharge condition, synthetic ammonia does not appear in the newspapers as yet under normal temperature and pressure or lesser temps and the pressure.
Present industrial synthetic ammonia generally adopts following prepared in reaction:
It is the reaction of heat release and volume-diminished.From the thermodynamics angle, low temperature, high pressure help reaction and move to the ammonia synthesis direction, and still, dynamic experiment shows that speed of response is extremely slow under the low temperature.For example, the nitrogen balance productive rate can reach 81.54% under 200 ℃ and 10.1MPa in theory, and in fact speed of response is too little and can not get ammonia.In order to realize that this reaction must adopt the catalyzer of high reactivity, high stability, with N 2And H 2The activation of dissociating.N 2Dissociation energy be 921.1kJ/mol, H 2Dissociation energy be 435.5kJ/mol.Therefore, generally believe N 2Adsorption activation be the reaction controlled step.At present, catalyst of synthetic ammonia all is Fe basically, Ru and Os series, can chemisorption nitrogen, the nitrogen of getting along well again forms stable compound.But no matter be traditional Fe series catalysts, still Ru series catalysts newly developed over nearly 20 years all can't reduce synthesis temperature and pressure effectively, more fails to realize synthetic ammonia under the normal temperature and pressure.
Summary of the invention:
The novel method that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of synthetic ammonia, the raw material that adopts is hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, and metal or rare earth alloy are intermediate medium, behind intermediate medium absorption hydrogen, generate active nitrogen and hydrogen with oxygen and nitrogen effect again, finally synthetic ammonia.This method can be carried out at normal temperatures and pressures, improves productive rate and resultant velocity that temperature and pressure can improve ammonia, and the needed operation of this method is few, and equipment is simple, and can save a large amount of energy.
The present invention prepares the method for ammonia, and step is as follows:
(1) in the reaction atmosphere of anti-oxidation and nitrogenize, the rare earth metal or the rare earth alloy of block or powder is heated to more than the hydrogenation temperature;
(2) in reactor, feed hydrogen, make rare earth metal or rare earth alloy absorb hydrogen;
(3) mixed gas of aerating oxygen and nitrogen or air in reactor, rare earth metal or rare earth alloy hydrogenated products and oxygen and nitrogen generation chemical reaction are prepared ammonia.
According to the difference of rare earth metal or rare earth alloy, this speed of response and productive rate are different.The ammonia of preparing can be collected by methods such as air pump or flowing gas.After the reaction, can realize the regeneration of rare earth or rare earth alloy by reduction method.
In the described method, type of heating can be a resistive heating in the step (), LASER HEATING, plasma heating, electron beam heating or induction heating etc.Heat-processed can be carried out in the inert atmosphere of vacuum or non-nitrogen or reducing atmosphere, if adopt hydrogen, then can omit step (two).
In the described method, step (two) can be carried out simultaneously with step (one), promptly can feed hydrogen in heat-processed in reactor, also can stop the heating after carry out.
In the described method, the amount that feeds hydrogen in the step (two) gets final product can take place to inhale H-H reaction, and rare earth metal or rare earth alloy absorb the amount of hydrogen and be advisable to reach capacity.Hydrogen pressure improves, and the productive rate and the resultant velocity of ammonia improve thereupon.
In the described method, in the step (three), rare earth metal or rare earth alloy can be taken out the mixed gas that the residual hydrogen in mountain feeds nitrogen and oxygen again after absorbing hydrogen.Oxygen and nitrogen ratios can be according to adopting how much deciding of rare earth metal or rare earth alloy hydrogen.The amount that feeds nitrogen and oxygen mixture or air gets final product so that ammonia synthesis reaction can take place, and gaseous tension improves, and the productive rate and the resultant velocity of ammonia improve thereupon.
The productive rate of the transformation efficiency of ammonia and ammonia is relevant with employing rare earth metal or rare earth alloy system among the present invention, and can add reaction cocatalyst and promotor, improves the productive rate and the resultant velocity of ammonia.
Advantage of the present invention and positively effect: it is intermediate medium (or medium) that the present invention has adopted rare earth metal or rare earth alloy, and these intermediate mediums are being heated to hydrogenation temperature when above, can form micro mist after inhaling hydrogen; When being heated to the intermediate medium evaporation, can form nanometer superfine powder.The synthesis mechanism of ammonia is among the present invention, at first, by absorption of hydrogen protium is stored in rare earth metal or rare earth alloy micron order or the nanometer grade powder, and become the active hydrogen of ion or atomic condition by the hydrogen of gaseous phase, make the gas mixture generation chemisorption of micron order or nanometer grade powder and oxygen and nitrogen then, oxygen and nitrogen are in the surperficial activation of dissociating of metal hydride; Subsequently, surface chemical reaction at first takes place in metal hydride and oxygen, emits active hydrogen; At last, issued biochemical reaction generation ammonia by the nitrogen of metal hydride adsorption activation and active hydrogen at normal temperature and pressure or lower temperature and pressure.For the situation that adopts nano-scale particle, because its specific surface area is big, the surface shortcoming is many, and activity is very strong, and is stronger than micron-sized powder to the adsorptive power of gas, so its activation of dissociating is good, can improve the speed of response and the productive rate of synthetic ammonia.
Method of the present invention can be carried out at normal temperatures and pressures, improves productive rate and resultant velocity that temperature and pressure can improve ammonia, and needed operation is few, and equipment is simple, and can save a large amount of energy.
