Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a device and method for coupling and fixing nitrogen, carbon, and hydrogen to produce nitrogen fertilizer driven by renewable energy, which can be applied to distributed supply of nitrogen fertilizer or nitrogen cycle energy storage in remote areas, and belongs to the field of new energy application and engineering thermophysics. Background Art
[0002] With the growth of the population and the expansion of agricultural production, nitrogen fertilizer has become increasingly important in agricultural production, playing an irreplaceable role in increasing crop yields, improving soil quality, and ensuring food security. However, in some remote areas, especially mountainous areas, desert regions, or islands, etc., due to factors such as inconvenient transportation and high transportation costs, the supply of nitrogen fertilizer faces many challenges, restricting the development of industrial and agricultural production. In addition, the current large-scale artificial nitrogen fixation technology still uses the Haber-Bosch process from a hundred years ago, which requires high-temperature (~500°C) and high-pressure (~20 - 30 MPa) reaction conditions. Therefore, the global nitrogen fixation industry consumes 2% of the earth's energy every year. In the context of the era of developing new quality productivity, developing green and low-carbon nitrogen fixation technologies driven by renewable energy and efficient and distributed nitrogen fertilizer synthesis processes are urgent problems to be solved in the current artificial nitrogen cycle.
[0003] Although the current renewable energy-driven nitrogen fixation technologies are developing rapidly (such as electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, plasma catalysis, etc.), the distributed nitrogen fixation technology in actual application scenarios is still limited. The main reason is the limitation of energy and material supply. During the distributed nitrogen fixation process, remote areas often lack a mature energy supply system, and the continuous supply of materials such as high-purity nitrogen, high-purity hydrogen, and electrolyte also faces multiple dilemmas such as high transportation costs, limited transportation capacity, and difficulty in synthesizing materials in real time, making it difficult to achieve real-time energy supply and long-distance material transportation. At present, the levelized cost of distributed nitrogen fixation remains high, and the technical economy is poor. Therefore, solving the real-time in-situ supply of energy and materials in the nitrogen fixation process can greatly broaden the application prospects of distributed nitrogen fixation technology, promote the artificial nitrogen cycle, and contribute to the sustainable development of agricultural production.

[0006] Further, the water extraction sub-module in the material capture module consists of a hygroscopic material membrane, a reflector, a condensation housing, and a drain pipe. The hygroscopic material membrane captures and enriches moisture from the air. The reflector prevents the moisture from volatilizing and dissipating from the water extraction sub-module. The condensation housing condenses the water vapor into liquid water, and the drain pipe transports the moisture to the downstream for reaction.

[0008] Further, the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module in the material capture module consists of a carbon dioxide adsorption material membrane, a concentrator, a housing, and a gas pipeline.

Specific implementation manners
[0018] The following further elaborates on the specific implementation manners of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0019] As Figure 1 shown, the present invention provides a nitrogen-carbon-hydrogen coupling fixed nitrogen fertilizer production device and method driven by renewable energy, realizing the electrochemical synthesis of nitrogen fertilizer without material input. It includes an energy collection sub-module 1 (mainly composed of photovoltaic panels), an energy storage control sub-module 2 (mainly composed of energy storage batteries), a power conversion sub-module 3 (mainly composed of inverters), a carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4, a water extraction sub-module 5, a material transportation sub-module 6, a low-temperature plasma sub-module 7 (mainly composed of a plasma power supply and a plasma reactor), and an electrolyzer sub-module 8 (mainly composed of a DC power supply and an electrolyzer). The energy collection sub-module 1, the energy storage control sub-module 2, and the power conversion sub-module 3 constitute a green power supply module; the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4, the water extraction sub-module 5, and the material transportation sub-module 6 constitute a material capture module; the low-temperature plasma sub-module 7 and the electrolyzer sub-module 8 constitute a catalytic conversion module.
[0020] In the green power supply module, the energy collection sub-module 1 is connected to the energy storage control sub-module 2 and the power conversion sub-module 3. Under normal operating conditions, electrical energy is collected by the energy collection sub-module 1, and after passing through the power conversion sub-module 3, the fluctuating electrical energy becomes the alternating current required by downstream electrical equipment to drive the operation of the entire equipment. When the supply of renewable energy is sufficient, a part of the energy is diverted into the energy storage control sub-module 2 for energy storage. When the energy supply is insufficient, the electrical energy in the energy storage control sub-module 2 is connected to the power conversion sub-module 3 to achieve flexible control of energy and stable operation of the entire system under the supply of fluctuating electrical energy.
[0021] As Figure 2As shown in the figure, the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4 in the material capture module is composed of a carbon dioxide capture sub-module housing 401, a carbon dioxide adsorption material membrane 402, a concentrator 403, and a gas pipeline 404. Air passes through the carbon dioxide adsorption material membrane 402, and the carbon dioxide in the air is captured and absorbed by the carbon dioxide adsorption material membrane 402. The concentrator 403 is irradiated by sunlight to heat the carbon dioxide adsorption material membrane 402. After the carbon dioxide is thermally desorbed, it is input into the carbon dioxide storage tank through the gas pipeline 404 to supply a carbon source for the catalytic conversion module.
[0022] As Figure 3 shown, the water extraction sub-module 5 in the material capture module is composed of a reflector 501, a moisture absorption material membrane 502, a condensation housing 503, and a drain pipe 504. At night, air passes through the moisture absorption material membrane 502, and the moisture in the air is captured and absorbed by the moisture absorption material membrane 502. During the day, the moisture absorption material membrane 502 is heated to volatilize the moisture, which condenses on the condensation housing 503. The reflector 501 prevents the moisture from being volatilized outside the water capture sub-module 5. The moisture is input into the water storage tank through the drain pipe 504, which can supply a hydrogen source for the catalytic conversion module.
[0023] As Figure 4 shown, the non-thermal plasma sub-module in the electrocatalytic conversion module is composed of an array of multiple plasma reactors connected in parallel. A single reactor is composed of a high-voltage electrode 701, a grounded electrode 702, a quartz dielectric 703, a non-thermal plasma sub-module gas inlet 704, and a non-thermal plasma sub-module gas outlet 705. Air enters the non-thermal plasma reactor through the non-thermal plasma sub-module gas inlet 704. The high-voltage electrode 701 and the grounded electrode 702 form a dielectric barrier discharge breakdown under the block of the quartz dielectric 703, converting the air into nitrogen oxides, which are transported to the electrolytic cell sub-module 7 through the non-thermal plasma sub-module gas outlet 705.
[0024] As Figure 5 shown, the electrolytic cell sub-module in the electrocatalytic conversion module is composed of a stack of several single-piece membrane electrodes. A single-piece membrane electrode is composed of a cathode electrode 801, an ion exchange membrane 802, an anode electrode 803, a cathode plate 804, and an anode plate 805. The cathode plate 804 and the anode plate 805 are provided with in / out holes for gas-liquid transportation. In addition, there are serpentine flow channels inside to ensure sufficient mass transfer. During operation, gas-liquid enters the inside of the electrolytic cell through the cathode plate 804 and the anode plate 805, and a reaction occurs between the anode electrode 803 and the cathode plate 804. The ion exchange membrane 802 provides an ion-electron transport path and blocks the cross-transfer of substances. The produced nitrogen fertilizer is discharged through the outlets of the cathode plate 804 and the anode plate 805 and enters the nitrogen fertilizer storage tank.

All other material transportation valves are in the open state. At this time, only the NO converted by the upstream low-temperature plasma sub-module 7 is introduced into the electrolyzer sub-module 8 X gas, and it is only introduced into the cathode for the reduction reaction, and the efficient synthesis of ammonia as a single product can be achieved.
[0026] Example 2: When ammonium nitrate is the target product: The valve between the water extraction sub-module 5 and the material transportation sub-module 6 can be opened, the valve between the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4 and the material transportation sub-module 6 can be closed, the valve for NO X +CO2 leading to the cathode in the electrolyzer sub-module 8 can be opened, and the valve for NO X +CO2 leading to the anode in the electrolyzer sub-module 8 can be opened. All other material transportation valves are in the open state. At this time, only the NO converted by the upstream low-temperature plasma sub-module 7 is introduced into the electrolyzer sub-module 8 X gas. This gas is reduced to ammonia at the cathode and oxidized to nitric acid at the anode, forming ammonium nitrate compound nitrogen fertilizer in the nitrogen fertilizer storage tank.
[0027] Example 3: When urea is the target product: The valve between the water extraction sub-module 5 and the material transportation sub-module 6 can be opened, the valve between the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4 and the material transportation sub-module 6 can be opened, the valve for NO X +CO2 leading to the cathode in the electrolyzer sub-module 8 can be opened, and the valve for NO X +CO2 leading to the anode in the electrolyzer sub-module 8 can be closed. All other material transportation valves are in the open state. At this time, the NO converted by the upstream low-temperature plasma sub-module 7 and the carbon dioxide captured in the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4 are introduced into the electrolyzer sub-module 8 X gas. This mixed gas is co-reduced at the cathode to achieve the stable synthesis of high-value-added urea.
[0028] Example 4: When carbon-based fuel is the target product: The valve between the water extraction sub-module 5 and the material transportation sub-module 6 can be opened, the valve between the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4 and the material transportation sub-module 6 can be opened, the valve for CO2 leading to the cathode in the electrolyzer sub-module 8 can be opened, the valve for CO2 leading to the anode in the electrolyzer sub-module 8 can be closed, and the valve for NO XThe anode valve in the electrolyzer sub-module 8, and the remaining material transport valves are all in the open state. At this time, only the carbon dioxide captured in the carbon dioxide extraction sub-module 4 is introduced into the electrolyzer sub-module 8. This gas undergoes a carbon dioxide reduction reaction at the cathode, enabling the selective synthesis of fuels such as syngas, ethylene, and ethanol.
