Description
본 발명은 천연가스(메탄)를 열분해하여 이산화탄소를 발생시키지 않고 수소와 카본블랙을 동시에 제조하는 방법에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 열분해에서 생성되는 수소의 일부를 열원으로 사용함으로써 지구온난화의 원인이 되는 이산화탄소를 전혀 발생시키지 않고 천연가스로부터 수소와 카본블랙을 동시에 제조하는 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method of simultaneously producing hydrogen and carbon black without generating carbon dioxide by pyrolyzing natural gas (methane), and more particularly, by using a part of hydrogen generated in pyrolysis as a heat source, The present invention relates to a method of simultaneously producing hydrogen and carbon black from natural gas without generating any carbon dioxide.
수소 에너지는 21세기의 에너지 문제와 환경 문제를 동시에 해결할 수 있는 거의 유일한 대책으로 대두되어 제조, 저장 및 이용 등 관련연구가 전세계적으로활발히 진행되고 있다.Hydrogen energy has emerged as the only solution that can solve both energy and environmental problems of the 21st century at the same time, and research on manufacturing, storage and use is actively conducted worldwide.
수소는 석탄이나 천연가스와 같은 화석연료보다 태양 에너지를 비롯한 대체 에너지를 활용하여 물로부터 제조하는 것이 이산화탄소도 발생시키지 않고 바람직한 것으로 평가되고 있으나, 현재로서는 경제적으로 유용한 규모로 생산될 가능성은 의문시되고 있으며 기술수준 또한 기초적인 연구단계를 벗어나지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 앞으로도 상당 기간 수소는 천연가스로부터 제조될 것으로 전망된다.Hydrogen is estimated to be produced from water using alternative energy including solar energy rather than from fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas without generating carbon dioxide, but at present it is questionable that it can be produced on an economically useful scale. The level of technology is also within the basic research stage. Therefore, hydrogen is expected to be produced from natural gas for some time to come.
천연가스로부터 수소를 제조하는 방법으로는 수증기 개질법을 비롯하여 여러 가지 방법이 공지되어 있으나 기존의 방법들은 많은 양의 이산화탄소가 동시에 생성되기 때문에 지구온난화 문제와 관련하여 근본적인 해결책이 되지 않는다.There are several known methods for producing hydrogen from natural gas, including steam reforming. However, existing methods do not provide a fundamental solution to the global warming problem because a large amount of carbon dioxide is generated at the same time.
이러한 관점에서 천연가스를 열분해하여 수소를 제조하는 공정은 이산화탄소가 발생되지 않으므로 지구온난화 문제를 일으키지 않고, 수증기 개질법과 비교하여도 대량으로 제조할 수 있는 기술수준에 도달해 있으며, 고순도의 카본블랙이 부산물로 얻어지는 장점이 있다.From this point of view, the process of producing hydrogen by pyrolysis of natural gas does not generate carbon dioxide, so it does not cause global warming problems, and has reached a technical level that can be produced in large quantities even when compared with steam reforming. There is an advantage obtained as a byproduct.
천연가스를 직접 분해하여 수소를 제조하는 기술로는 플라즈마 분해법을 대표적으로 들 수 있는데 이는 연구가 많이 진행되어 노르웨이를 비롯한 일부 국가에서는 거의 상업화 단계에 와있다.The technique of producing hydrogen by directly decomposing natural gas includes plasma decomposition, which has been studied a lot, and is being commercialized in some countries including Norway.
그러나, 대형화하는데 해결되어야 할 기술적 난점이 남아있고, 전력이 많이 소요되기 때문에 전력요금이 비싼 우리나라에서는 경제성이 없으며, 그렇지 않다 하더라도 전력 생산에 이산화탄소의 방출이 불가피하기 때문에 원천적으로 환경문제로부터 자유롭지 못하다. 따라서, 노르웨이 같이 수력에 의하여 전기를 생산하는일부 국가에서만 유용한 방법이라 할 수 있다.However, there are technical difficulties to be solved to enlarge the size and power consumption is high, so there is no economical in the country where the power bill is expensive, even if it is inevitable to release carbon dioxide in power generation, it is not free from environmental problems. Therefore, it is a useful method only in some countries, such as Norway, which generate electricity by hydropower.
천연가스를 분해하여 수소를 제조하는 또 다른 기술로는 촉매를 사용하는 방법이 있다. 촉매분해법은 열분해에 비하여 반응온도는 비교적 낮으나 부산물로 생성되는 카본이 촉매에 침적되어 촉매활성이 단시간 내에 떨어지는 문제점이 있다.Another technique for decomposing natural gas to produce hydrogen is to use a catalyst. Catalytic decomposition has a relatively low reaction temperature compared with pyrolysis, but has a problem in that carbon produced as a by-product is deposited on the catalyst and thus the catalytic activity falls within a short time.
본 발명의 목적은 이산화탄소를 발생시키지 않고, 열분해에 의하여 천연가스로부터 수소와 카본블랙을 동시에 제조하는 방법을 제공하는 것이다.An object of the present invention is to provide a method for simultaneously producing hydrogen and carbon black from natural gas by pyrolysis without generating carbon dioxide.
도 1은 제조된 수소의 일부를 연소시키는 경우에 있어서의 본 발명의 실시에 적합한 장치 구성의 일례이다.1 is an example of an apparatus configuration suitable for the practice of the present invention in the case of burning a part of the produced hydrogen.

13: 버너13: burner
상기 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 천연가스(메탄)를 950∼1300℃의 온도에서 열분해하는 것을 특징으로 한다.The present invention for achieving the above object is characterized in that the pyrolysis of natural gas (methane) at a temperature of 950 ~ 1300 ℃.
천연가스(메탄)는 고온에서 하기 [반응식 1]에서 보는 바와 같이, 카본블랙과 수소로 분해되는데 이 반응은 흡열반응으로 1몰당 약 75.6kJ의 에너지를 필요로 한다.Natural gas (methane) is decomposed into carbon black and hydrogen at high temperature as shown in [Scheme 1], which is an endothermic reaction and requires about 75.6 kJ of energy per mole.
상기 천연가스의 열분해 반응은 950℃ 이상이면 일어나지만 1,100∼1,200℃에서 실시하는 것이 바람직하다. 950℃ 이하에서는 반응이 활발하게 일어나지 않으며 1,300℃ 이상이 되면 반응기와 배관을 특수한 재질로 제작해야 하므로 장치비용이 증가한다. 따라서, 반응온도는 1,100∼1,200℃로 하는 것이 바람직하다.The pyrolysis reaction of the natural gas occurs at 950 ° C. or higher, but is preferably performed at 1,100 to 1,200 ° C. The reaction does not occur actively below 950 ℃, and when the temperature is over 1,300 ℃, the equipment cost increases because the reactor and the pipe must be made of a special material. Therefore, it is preferable to make reaction temperature into 1,100-1,200 degreeC.
반응기의 형태는 특별히 제약을 받지 않으나 관형 반응기(tubular reactor)를 사용하면 열 전달이 용이하고 반응시간을 정밀하게 제어하는데 유리하다.The shape of the reactor is not particularly limited, but the use of a tubular reactor facilitates heat transfer and is advantageous for precisely controlling the reaction time.
천연가스의 반응기 내 체류시간은 0.5∼3.0초로 하는 것이 바람직하다. 체류시간이 짧으면 수율이 떨어지고, 너무 길면 처리량이 줄어든다.The residence time of the natural gas in the reactor is preferably 0.5 to 3.0 seconds. Short residence times result in lower yields, too long yields reduced throughput.
또한, 천연가스를 분해하는 반응기의 열원으로는 제조된 수소의 일부를 연소시켜 발생하는 열을 공급할 수 있는데 이 방법에 의하면 전 공정을 통해 이산화탄소를 전혀 발생시키지 않고 수소를 제조할 수 있다In addition, as a heat source of a reactor for decomposing natural gas, heat generated by burning a part of hydrogen produced may be supplied. According to this method, hydrogen may be produced without generating carbon dioxide at all stages.
반응기 내에서 생성된 수소는 막 분리법이나 흡착 분리법 등의 공지된 방법을 통해 고순도로 정제될 수 있다. 부산물로 얻어지는 카본블랙은 타이어나 잉크 등 여러 가지 용도로 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.Hydrogen generated in the reactor can be purified to high purity through known methods such as membrane separation or adsorptive separation. Carbon black obtained as a by-product can be usefully used for various purposes such as tires and inks.
본 발명의 구성을 제조된 수소의 일부를 연소시키는 경우에 있어서의 본 발명의 실시에 적합한 장치 구성의 일례를 도시한 도 1을 사용하여 보다 구체적으로 설명한다.The structure of this invention is demonstrated more concretely using FIG. 1 which shows an example of the apparatus structure suitable for implementation of this invention in the case of burning a part of produced hydrogen.
천연가스(메탄)를 열분해 반응기(11)로 공급하면 열분해 반응기에서 열분해된 후, 수소/메탄 분리장치(12)로 유입되어 수소와 메탄으로 분리되는데, 메탄은 재순환되어 원료 천연가스와 함께 다시 열분해 반응기로 유입되고, 제조된 수소는 저장장치(미도시)로 배출되어 저장되는데 일부는 버너(13)에 공급되어 열분해 반응기에 열을 공급한다. 한편, 열분해 반응기(11)에서 생성된 카본블랙은 반응기 하부의 포집기(미도시)에 포집된다.When natural gas (methane) is supplied to the pyrolysis reactor (11), it is pyrolyzed in the pyrolysis reactor, and then flows into the hydrogen / methane separator (12) to separate hydrogen and methane. The methane is recycled and pyrolyzed together with the raw natural gas again. Hydrogen is introduced into the reactor, and the produced hydrogen is discharged and stored in a storage device (not shown), which is supplied to the burner 13 to supply heat to the pyrolysis reactor. On the other hand, the carbon black produced in the pyrolysis reactor 11 is collected in a collector (not shown) at the bottom of the reactor.
본 발명의 구성은 후술하는 실시예에 의하여 더욱 명확해질 것이나 본 발명의 권리범위는 이들 실시예에 의해 제한되지 않는다.The configuration of the present invention will be further clarified by the following embodiments, but the scope of the present invention is not limited by these embodiments.
<실시예 1><Example 1>
시료가스는 메탄가스를 사용하고, 반응기는 외경 15mm, 내경 9mm, 길이 1,200mm의 알루미나 튜브를 사용하였다.Methane gas was used as the sample gas, and an alumina tube having an outer diameter of 15 mm, an inner diameter of 9 mm, and a length of 1,200 mm was used.
메탄가스는 질량유량계 (M. J. Tech., Model MR300)와 제어 밸브(KOFLOC, Model No.3660)를 사용하여 일정한 유량으로 반응기에 주입하였는데 질량유량계를 통과한 메탄가스는 반응기에 주입되기 전에 900℃로 예열하였다.Methane gas was injected into the reactor at a constant flow rate using a mass flow meter (MJ Tech., Model MR300) and a control valve (KOFLOC, Model No. 3660) .Methane gas passed through the mass flow meter was heated to 900 ° C before being injected into the reactor. Preheated.
반응기에서는 메탄가스가 분해되어 생성된 수소와 카본블랙, 그리고 미반응된 메탄가스가 배출되는데 950℃의 온도에서 3초간 반응시킨 결과, 배출가스의 수소 농도는 11.4몰%로 측정되었다.In the reactor, hydrogen, carbon black, and unreacted methane gas produced by decomposition of methane gas were discharged. After reacting for 3 seconds at a temperature of 950 ° C, the hydrogen concentration of the exhaust gas was 11.4 mol%.
<실시예 2∼32><Examples 2 to 32>
실시예 1과 동일한 장치를 사용하여 반응온도와 반응시간을 달리하여 실시하였다. 생성물의 수소 농도는 실시예 1과 함께 다음 [표 1]에 정리하였다.Using the same apparatus as in Example 1 was carried out by varying the reaction temperature and reaction time. The hydrogen concentration of the product is summarized in Table 1 together with Example 1.
상기 실시예들로부터 반응 온도가 높을수록 그리고 반응 시간이 길수록 수소의 수율이 높아짐을 알 수 있다. 배출가스의 수소농도는 1,100℃에서 약 80%, 1,200℃ 이상에서는 수소농도가 90% 이상이다.It can be seen from the above examples that the higher the reaction temperature and the longer the reaction time, the higher the yield of hydrogen. The hydrogen concentration of the exhaust gas is about 80% at 1,100 ° C., and the hydrogen concentration is 90% or more at 1,200 ° C. or higher.
본 발명에 의하면 이산화탄소를 발생시키지 않고도 천연가스로부터 수소와 함께 고순도의 카본블랙을 동시에 제조할 수 있다.According to the present invention, high purity carbon black can be produced simultaneously with hydrogen from natural gas without generating carbon dioxide.
