Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electrochemical catalysis and membrane separation, and in particular to a proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Ammonia (NH3) is an important chemical raw material and an ideal carbon-free hydrogen storage medium, widely used in agriculture and modern industry. Industrial ammonia is primarily synthesized via the Haber process (N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3). Due to the difficulty and slow kinetics of nitrogen-nitrogen triple bond dissociation, the ammonia synthesis reaction must be carried out under high temperature and high pressure (400°C to 600°C, 200 atm to 400 atm), resulting in high energy consumption (approximately 2% of global energy consumption annually). Furthermore, the hydrogen required for the Haber process is primarily obtained through methane steam reforming, a process that produces large amounts of gases such as carbon dioxide, requiring not only separation and purification operations but also the release of approximately 1% to 2% of global CO2 emissions.

[0065] 0.6g of cathode powder (same as in Example 1) was placed In the quartz tube, shake it slightly to evenly spread the cathode powder on the bottom of the quartz tube, and then seal it to obtain a traditional fixed-bed ammonia synthesis reactor.
[0066] Performance testing:
[0067] 1) X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of LWO in Example 1 and BCZYYb7111 in Comparative Example 1 are shown in FIG. Figure 1 (a is untreated LWO and BCZYYb7111, b is LWO and BCZYYb7111 treated at 500℃ for 100h in CO2 atmosphere).
[0068] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that the diffraction peak positions of untreated LWO and BCZYYb7111 are consistent with those of the standard card, and no other impurities are generated, indicating that LWO and BCZYYb7111 are successfully synthesized; after LWO and BCZYYb7111 are treated at 500℃ for 100h in a CO2 atmosphere, BCZYYb7111 shows a characteristic peak of barium carbonate, while LWO does not have other impurity peaks and still maintains a good phase structure, indicating that LWO has good chemical stability against carbon dioxide.
[0069] 2) The scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the LWO film in Example 1 is as follows: Figure 2 (a is the surface, b is the cross section).

The cross-sectional view shows that there are no bubbles or through-holes inside the film. The grains are tightly connected, and gas cannot directly penetrate the lattice inside the film, indicating that the LWO film sintered at 1400℃ is very dense.
[0071] 3) Synthetic ammonia performance test:
[0072] The synthetic ammonia performance test process of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Examples 1 to 3 is as follows: the anode and cathode of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Examples 1 to 3 are coated with silver paste (for current collection), sintered at 500°C in air for 30 minutes, and then sealed with sealant. One end of the corundum tube, and then put a The quartz glass tube was used for feeding. After waiting for 24 hours for the sealant to dry completely, the device was fixed in a tube furnace and heated to 80°C at a heating rate of 1°C / min, kept warm for 2 hours, then heated to 150°C at a heating rate of 1°C / min, kept warm for 2 hours, and then heated to the test temperature (300°C, 350°C and 400°C) at a heating rate of 1°C / min. Each test temperature and applied current (1mA / cm 2 ~10mA / cm 2 , each interval 1mA / cm 2 Each test point (a total of 10 test points) must be tested continuously for 1 hour. The flow rate of the gas used in the test is precisely controlled by a mass flow controller. An H2 / CO2 mixture with a volume ratio of 4:1 is introduced into the feed side at a flow rate of 60 mL / min (the flow rate of hydrogen reaching the cathode through the LWO membrane is 0.007 mL / min to 0.07 mL / min). Nitrogen at 15 mL / min is used as a purge gas. The purge tail gas is introduced into a dilute hydrochloric acid absorption solution with a concentration of 0.01 mol / L to absorb the generated ammonia. The absorbance of the absorption solution is quantitatively detected by UV-visible spectrophotometry. Finally, the ammonia yield and the corresponding current Faraday efficiency are calculated based on the ammonia standard curve.
[0073] The ammonia synthesis performance test process of the traditional fixed-bed ammonia synthesis reactor in Comparative Example 2 is as follows: the traditional fixed-bed ammonia synthesis reactor in Comparative Example 2 is heated to the test temperatures (300°C, 350°C and 400°C) at a heating rate of 1°C / min. Each test temperature must be maintained for 1 hour of uninterrupted testing. The flow rate of the gas used in the test is precisely controlled by a mass flow controller, and hydrogen and nitrogen are introduced. The flow rate of hydrogen is 0.07 mL / min, and the flow rate of nitrogen is 15 mL / min. The tail gas is introduced into a dilute hydrochloric acid absorption liquid with a concentration of 0.01 mol / L to absorb the generated ammonia. The absorbance of the absorption liquid is quantitatively detected using UV-visible spectrophotometry. Finally, the ammonia yield is calculated based on the ammonia standard curve.
[0074] The test results of ammonia synthesis performance of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Examples 1 to 3 and the traditional fixed bed ammonia synthesis reactor in Comparative Example 2 are shown in the figure. Figure 3 (a is a graph showing the ammonia yield test results of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Example 1, b is a graph showing the current Faraday efficiency test results of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Example 1, and c is a graph showing the comparative test results of the ammonia yields of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactors in Examples 1 to 3 and the traditional fixed-bed ammonia synthesis reactor in Comparative Example 2).
[0075] Depend on Figure 3It can be seen that the ammonia yield of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Examples 1 to 3 is approximately 10 times, 9 times and 8 times that of the traditional fixed-bed ammonia synthesis reactor in Comparative Example 2 (as the Ru / C content in the cathode powder decreases, the ammonia yield of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor will also decrease accordingly), indicating that the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor of the present invention has great advantages in ammonia synthesis.
[0076] 4) Electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis stability test:
[0077] The proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in Example 1 was placed in a H2-CO2 atmosphere (the volume ratio of H2 to CO2 was 4:1) and subjected to an electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis test at 350°C for 100 hours. The long-term stability test results of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor in a CO2-containing atmosphere are shown in the figure. Figure 4 (a is the long-term stability diagram of synthetic ammonia, b is the current density 2.5mA / cm 2 The corresponding applied voltage value is shown in Figure 2, and c is the XRD pattern of the LWO membrane in the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor before and after the test.

[0079] After testing (same as above), the ammonia yield, current Faraday efficiency and corresponding voltage value of the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactors in Examples 2 and 3 did not show obvious fluctuations after 100 hours of testing in a CO2-containing atmosphere. Moreover, the phase structure of the LWO membrane in the proton conductor ceramic membrane reactor remained basically unchanged before and after the test, and also had excellent operational stability.
