Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of carbon dioxide capture technology, and more specifically, to a method and application for capturing and converting carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, common industrial methods for capturing carbon dioxide include chemical adsorption, physical adsorption, high-pressure liquefaction, and molecular sieve technology. For example, publication number CN114602294A discloses a two-phase absorbent for capturing CO2, which captures carbon dioxide through chemical adsorption; another example is authorization publication number CN214222307U, which discloses an integrated system for enriching and liquefying carbon dioxide in industrial waste gas, using high-pressure liquefaction to capture and store carbon dioxide.
[0003] In actual production, the adsorption process is complex, has poor stability and safety, and high-pressure liquefaction is prone to safety accidents such as leakage. It is also costly and difficult to promote and apply on a large scale in industry. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a method for capturing and converting carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas. The entire process is simple and fast, and it can effectively capture carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas. It is low in cost, safe, and has high practical value.
[0005] Another objective of this application is to provide an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in industrial flue gas purification.
[0006] Another objective of this application is to provide an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in the preparation of compound fertilizer from industrial flue gas.
[0007] The technical problem solved by this application is achieved by the following technical solution.
[0008] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a method for capturing and converting carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas, comprising the following steps: sending industrial flue gas into the upper part of a cyclone separator to cause the flue gas flow to rotate downward along the cylinder wall in the upper part of the cyclone separator; simultaneously sending fresh air into the lower part of the cyclone separator to cause the air flow to rotate downward along the cylinder wall in the lower part of the cyclone separator; and cooling the cyclone separator to allow the industrial flue gas and air to react under conditions of temperature less than 10°C and pressure not less than 0.12 MPa to generate a mixed acid including carbonic acid, thereby capturing and converting carbon dioxide in the industrial flue gas.
[0009] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in industrial flue gas purification and treatment.
[0010] Thirdly, embodiments of this application provide an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in the preparation of compound fertilizer from industrial flue gas.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this application have at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0012] Regarding the first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a method for capturing and converting carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas. Industrial flue gas is fed into the upper cylindrical part of a cyclone separator using a blower, nozzle, or other equipment. The industrial flue gas is pressurized and injected into the interior of the cyclone separator, causing the flue gas to form an airflow that rotates rapidly downwards along the side wall of the cyclone separator. Similarly, fresh air from the outside is fed into the lower conical part of the cyclone separator using an air compressor, nozzle, or other equipment. The fresh air is pressurized and injected into the interior of the cyclone separator, also causing the fresh air to form an airflow that rotates rapidly downwards along the side wall of the cyclone separator. During this process, the rotational speed of the airflow is greater than that of the flue gas flow. Under the action of the pressure difference, the flue gas flow at the upper part is dragged and accelerated downwards. Simultaneously, the cyclone separator is cooled, ultimately forming a wall-mounted "super-gravity centrifugal freezing pressure field" inside the cyclone separator, with a temperature less than 10°C and a pressure not less than 0.12 MPa. Under these conditions, moisture in the industrial flue gas condenses into droplets. The carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the flue gas, under the pressure and temperature provided by the "hypergravity centrifugal freezing pressure field," alter the chemical reaction pressure equilibrium parameters that would normally prevent a reaction, allowing the three to react rapidly to produce carbonic acid. Similarly, toxic substances in the industrial flue gas, such as nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide, can also react to form corresponding acids. The relevant reactions are as follows:
[0013] 2CO + 2CO₂ + 4H₂O + O₂ → 4H₂CO₃
[0014] CO2 + H2O → H2CO3
[0015] 4NO + 2H₂O + 3O₂ → 4HNO₃
[0016] 4NO2 + 2H2O + O2 → 4HNO3
[0017] 2SO2 + 2H2O + O2 → 2H2SO4
[0018] The entire method is simple and can effectively capture carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas, while also purifying it. It is low-cost, economical, and environmentally friendly, with a safe and stable process and high practical value.
[0019] Regarding the second aspect, embodiments of this application provide an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in industrial flue gas purification, which can repeatedly process industrial flue gas through multiple stages to achieve different capture and purification effects.
[0020] Regarding the third aspect, the application provides an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in the preparation of compound fertilizer from industrial flue gas. During the treatment of industrial flue gas using this method, liquid nitrogen or ammonia can be appropriately introduced into the cyclone separator. Under the conditions provided by the "hypergravity centrifugal freezing pressure field," it can react with the obtained carbonic acid to generate ammonium bicarbonate compound fertilizer containing small amounts of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate. After simple dehydration treatment, an agricultural compound fertilizer with an ammonium bicarbonate content of over 97% can be obtained. The relevant reactions are as follows:
[0021] H₂CO₃ + NH₃ → NH₄HCO₃
[0022] H₂SO₄ + 2NH₃ → (NH₄)₂SO₄
[0023] HNO3 + NH3 → NH4NO3 Attached Figure Description

[0034] Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The application will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.
[0035] This application provides a method for capturing and converting carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas, comprising the following steps: sending industrial flue gas into the upper part of a cyclone separator to cause the flue gas flow to rotate downward along the cylinder wall in the upper part of the cyclone separator; simultaneously sending fresh air into the lower part of the cyclone separator to cause the air flow to rotate downward along the cylinder wall in the lower part of the cyclone separator; and cooling the cyclone separator to allow the industrial flue gas and air to react under conditions of temperature less than 10°C and pressure not less than 0.12 MPa to generate a mixed acid containing carbonic acid, thereby capturing and converting carbon dioxide in the industrial flue gas.
[0036] In the above embodiments, industrial flue gas is fed into the upper cylindrical part of the cyclone separator using a blower, nozzle, or other equipment, and the industrial flue gas is pressurized and injected into the interior of the cyclone separator, causing the industrial flue gas to form an airflow that rotates downward at high speed along the side wall of the cyclone separator. Similarly, fresh air from the outside is fed into the lower conical part of the cyclone separator using an air compressor, nozzle, or other equipment, and the fresh air is pressurized and injected into the interior of the cyclone separator, also causing the fresh air to form an airflow that rotates downward at high speed along the side wall of the cyclone separator. During this process, the rotational speed of the airflow is greater than that of the flue gas flow. Under the action of the pressure difference, the flue gas flow at the top is dragged and accelerated downward to rotate. At the same time, the cyclone separator is cooled, and a wall-oriented "super-gravity centrifugal freezing pressure field" is finally formed inside the cyclone separator, with a temperature of less than 10°C and a pressure of not less than 0.12 MPa. Under these conditions, the moisture in the industrial flue gas condenses into droplets. The carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the flue gas react with the fresh air under the pressure and temperature provided by the "hypergravity centrifugal freezing pressure field," changing the chemical reaction pressure balance parameters that are not easily reacted under normal conditions, allowing the three to react rapidly to produce carbonic acid. Similarly, toxic substances such as nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide contained in the industrial flue gas can also react to form corresponding acids.
[0037] The entire method is simple and can effectively capture carbon dioxide in industrial flue gas, while also purifying it. It is low-cost, economical, and environmentally friendly, with a safe and stable process and high practical value.
[0038] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, industrial flue gas is sent into the upper part of the cyclone separator by a medium- and high-pressure blower at a pressure of 4500 to 7500 Pa; and fresh air is sent into the lower part of the cyclone separator by an air compressor at a pressure of 0.6 to 0.8 MPa.
[0039] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the tangential velocity of the flue gas flow during rotation is 14–40 m / s; the tangential velocity of the air flow during rotation is 60–150 m / s.
[0040] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the cyclone is cooled by a cooling medium with a temperature of 5°C to -15°C.
[0041] In the above embodiments, by controlling conditions such as pressure, airflow velocity, and cooling temperature, a wall-oriented "super-gravity centrifugal freezing pressure field" can be formed inside the cyclone, which is more conducive to the reaction, improves the effect of carbon dioxide capture and conversion, and is more beneficial to industrial production.
[0042] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, it is implemented by the following device: including a housing 1, a cyclone 2 is disposed inside the housing 1, the bottom of the cyclone 2 is connected to the bottom of the housing 1; a cavity is formed between the cyclone 2 and the housing 1, a sealing baffle 11 is disposed in the cavity, the sealing baffle 11 is sleeved on the cyclone 2 and connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, the sealing baffle 11 divides the cavity into a first chamber 3 and a second chamber 4, the first chamber 3 is located above the second chamber 4; a cooling chamber 23 is disposed on the side wall of the cyclone 2, and a first spray assembly and a second spray assembly are also disposed on the side wall of the cyclone 2, the first spray assembly is located in the first chamber 3, and the second spray assembly is located in the second chamber 4.
[0043] In the above embodiments, during actual use, industrial flue gas is sent into the first chamber 3 inside the housing 1 via a blower or other equipment, and the flue gas is injected at high speed into the cyclone 2 via the first injection assembly, causing the flue gas to rotate downwards along the inner wall of the cyclone 2. During this process, the cooling chamber 23 is filled with a cooling medium, which can cool the rotating flue gas; at the same time, fresh air is sent into the second chamber 4, and the fresh air is injected at high speed into the lower part of the cyclone 2 via the second injection assembly, causing the fresh air to also rotate along the inner wall of the cyclone 2; at this time, the upper part of the conical cylinder is a high-speed downward rotating flue gas flow, and the lower part is a high-speed downward rotating air flow. Under the pressure difference generated by the high-speed air flow in the upper part, the high-speed air flow in the lower part will cause the upper flue gas to rotate downwards around the inner wall of the cyclone 2 more quickly. At the same time, under the action of the cooling medium in the cooling chamber 23, a wall-oriented "super-gravity centrifugal freezing pressure field" will eventually be formed inside the cyclone 2. Under these conditions, moisture in the industrial flue gas condenses into droplets. The carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the flue gas, under the pressure and temperature provided by the "hypergravity centrifugal freezing pressure field," alter the chemical reaction pressure balance parameters that would normally prevent a reaction, allowing the three to react rapidly to produce carbonic acid. Similarly, toxic substances such as nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide in the industrial flue gas can also react to form corresponding acids. If liquid nitrogen or ammonia is appropriately introduced into the cyclone 2, under the conditions provided by the "hypergravity centrifugal freezing pressure field," it can react with the obtained carbonic acid to produce ammonium bicarbonate compound fertilizer containing small amounts of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulfate. Simple dehydration treatment then yields an agricultural compound fertilizer with an ammonium bicarbonate content of over 97%.
[0044] The entire equipment has a simple structure and can purify flue gas while capturing carbon dioxide. It can also further convert the captured carbon dioxide into compound nitrogen fertilizer, realizing resource recycling and reuse. The entire process is safe, stable, simple, fast, highly stable, and low-cost. It features energy saving, emission reduction, economic and environmental protection, and resource conservation, making it highly practical.
[0045] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the first injection assembly includes a plurality of first airflow nozzles 5, the second injection assembly includes a plurality of second airflow nozzles 6, the first airflow nozzles 5 and the second airflow nozzles 6 are both disposed through the side wall of the cyclone 2, the air inlet ends of the first airflow nozzles 5 and the second airflow nozzles 6 are both located in the cavity, and the air outlet ends are both located inside the cyclone 2 and are positioned lower than the air inlet ends.
[0046] In the above embodiment, the multiple first airflow nozzles 5 and multiple second airflow nozzles 6, which are inclined downwards toward the inside of the cyclone 2, can better achieve high-speed downward rotation of the airflow along the inner wall of the cyclone 2, resulting in better performance. The airflow velocity of the second nozzles is greater than that of the first airflow nozzles 5, so as to accelerate and drag the upward flue gas flow through the pressure difference.
[0047] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the cyclone 2 includes a cylindrical tube 21 and a conical tube 22. The end of the conical tube 22 with a larger diameter is connected to the end of the cylindrical tube 21, and the end of the conical tube 22 with a smaller diameter is connected to the bottom of the housing 1 and communicates with the outside. The sealing baffle 11 is located between the cylindrical tube 21 and the conical tube 22. The cylindrical tube 21 is located in the first chamber 3, and the conical tube 22 is located in the second chamber 4.
[0048] In the above embodiments, this configuration makes the device structure more reasonable and helps to enhance the capture effect.
[0049] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the above-mentioned device further includes a circulating cooling device 100, which is provided with an outlet 102 and an inlet 101. The outlet 102 is connected to the bottom of the cooling chamber 23 through a pipe, and the inlet 101 is connected to the top of the cooling chamber 23 through a pipe.
[0050] In the above embodiments, liquid nitrogen or ammonia can be added while fresh air is introduced into the second chamber 4 through the feeding pipe 7, so as to react the captured carbon dioxide into ammonium bicarbonate compound fertilizer and realize the reuse of resources.
[0051] This application also provides an application of an industrial flue gas carbon dioxide capture and conversion method in industrial flue gas purification.

Similarly, an air compressor, nozzle, or other equipment is used to deliver fresh air from the outside into the lower conical part of the cyclone separator, pressurizing and injecting the fresh air into the interior of the cyclone separator, also causing the fresh air to form an airflow that rotates downwards at high speed along the side wall of the cyclone separator. During this process, the rotational speed of the airflow is greater than that of the flue gas flow. Under the action of the pressure difference, the flue gas flow at the upper part is dragged and accelerated downwards. Simultaneously, the cyclone separator is cooled, ultimately forming a wall-mounted "super-gravity centrifugal freezing pressure field" inside the cyclone separator, with a temperature less than 10°C and a pressure not less than 0.12 MPa. Under these conditions, moisture in the industrial flue gas condenses into droplets. The carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the flue gas react with those in the fresh air under the pressure and temperature provided by the "hypergravity centrifugal freezing pressure field," altering the chemical reaction pressure balance parameters that would normally prevent a reaction. This allows the three substances to react rapidly to produce carbonic acid. Similarly, toxic substances such as nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide in the industrial flue gas can also react to form corresponding acids.
