Abstract

The invention provides a hydrogen production device for reforming organic compounds through low-temperature plasmas. The hydrogen production device comprises a feeding system, a vaporization system, aplasma reactor, a high-voltage power supply and a hydrogen collection system. Organic compounds, water and carrier gas are input into the vaporization system through the feeding system, and the organic compounds and the water are vaporized and form mixed gas with the carrier gas to be input into the plasma reactor. Power is supplied through the high-voltage power supply, a plasma field is generated in the plasma reactor, organic compounds are subjected to reforming reaction to generate hydrogen-rich gas, and the hydrogen-rich gas is collected and separated by a hydrogen collecting system. Thehydrogen production device has the advantages of being small in size, high in efficiency, good in stability, wide in raw material source, wide in application range, low in energy cost and equipment cost and the like, plasma reforming hydrogen production can be conducted on various hydrogen-containing compounds, and on-line hydrogen supply is conducted on a fuel cell and a hydrogen energy automobile. The invention also provides a hydrogen production method using the device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical hydrogen production, in particular to a hydrogen production device for reforming organic compounds through low-temperature plasma, and a hydrogen production method using the device. Background technique [0002] With the increasingly prominent environmental and energy issues, the development of clean and efficient new energy has become a research hotspot all over the world. Due to its high efficiency and low emissions, fuel cells are considered to be the next generation after hydropower, thermal power and nuclear power. The fourth type of power generation technology has broad application prospects. A fuel cell is a power generation device that directly converts the chemical energy in fuel into electrical energy through an electrochemical reaction.
