Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy and metallurgy, in particular to a method for synchronously producing synthesis gas and metal zinc in one reaction process. Background technique

[0002] The three pillars of energy in the world today are oil, coal, and natural gas. The current reserves of oil are estimated to be used by humans for less than 50 years. Therefore, finding alternatives to oil is the most urgent problem in the world today. Methane (CH 4 ) is the main component of natural gas, coalbed methane and methane hydrate (combustible ice). With the increasing depletion of oil resources, abundant methane resources will become one of the most promising alternative energy sources. Experts predict that by the 20th century, in the world's energy structure, methane will increase from the current 25% to 40%, thereby replacing oil as the world's most important energy source, and will also replace oil as the most important chemical raw ...
