Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gas separation technology, and more specifically to a method for removing water and carbon dioxide from a mixed gas. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, carbon dioxide and water vapor are the main impurities in the production of high-purity gases in industry. The presence of water and carbon dioxide impurities not only severely affects the quality of high-purity gases, but excessively high water and carbon dioxide content in the mixed gas also has a significant impact on further processing or direct application of the high-purity gases. For example, it can cause catalyst poisoning and deactivation in downstream processes, corrosion of gas transport pipelines, valves, and flow meters, and affect equipment operation and maintenance. High-purity electronic gases (high-purity HF, HBr, HCl), which have important applications in semiconductor production and plasma etching of polysilicon, are crucial for ensuring the quality of various high-performance electronic devices. Their market demand is increasing year by year with the rapid development of the semiconductor and polysilicon industries. A key step in the production process of high-purity electronic gases (high-purity HF, HBr, HCl) is controlling their water content to the nL / L (ppb) level. However, because water easily forms hydrogen bonds and has a low partial pressure, water removal under high-purity gas standards is difficult. Therefore, developing an efficient and cost-effective water and carbon dioxide removal technology has significant industrial value.
[0003] Based on different removal principles, existing technologies for removing H2O and CO2 from mixed gases include solvent absorption, membrane separation, cryogenic distillation, and solid adsorption. Solid adsorption separation technology based on porous materials is currently a mature technology for water and carbon dioxide removal, widely used in practical industrial processes for removing H2O and CO2 from mixed gases. Adsorption separation processes do not involve chemical reactions; instead, they rely on the physical adsorption of gas (adsorbate) on a solid surface (adsorbent) to achieve separation. Regeneration can be achieved through temperature or pressure changes in the system. Compared to other traditional processes, it is simpler to operate and offers higher purification levels, making it widely used for water and carbon dioxide removal. Therefore, the simultaneous removal of water and carbon dioxide based on adsorption separation technology is considered to have good industrial application prospects, and its core lies in the development of highly efficient adsorbents.
[0004] Currently, adsorbents applicable to water and carbon dioxide removal mainly include porous silica, activated alumina, porous carbon materials, metal-organic frameworks, porous polymers, and zeolite molecular sieves. However, the development of highly efficient adsorbents in adsorption separation systems for removing H2O and CO2 still faces the following challenges: (1) low low-pressure adsorption capacity of the materials; (2) difficulty in combining the removal depth and high separation selectivity of H2O and CO2 gases. The molecular sieve adsorbents commonly used in industry are mainly 13X molecular sieves and 3A molecular sieves, but 13X molecular sieves have a larger pore size. Its adsorption force for small molecules is relatively weak, and while removing H2O and CO2 gases, it also adsorbs other gas components in the gas mixture. Therefore, its removal depth and separation selectivity for impurity gases are both low. Meanwhile, 3A molecular sieves, due to their smaller pore size... It can only adsorb molecules with a size of Water molecules, and cannot be removed Carbon dioxide impurities. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop adsorbent materials that combine high removal depth and high separation selectivity with low cost and stability to achieve efficient removal of water and carbon dioxide. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems and shortcomings in the field, this invention provides a method for removing water and carbon dioxide from a mixed gas. The method uses a weak acid salt molecular sieve as an adsorbent, bringing the mixed gas into contact with the weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent. The weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent selectively adsorbs water and carbon dioxide molecules in the mixed gas, thereby removing water and carbon dioxide from the mixed gas.

[0008] [2] A method for deep water removal from a mixed gas includes: contacting the mixed gas with a weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent, wherein the weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent selectively adsorbs water molecules, and the exclusion molecular dynamics diameter is greater than that of the water molecules. Other gases are used to achieve deep removal of water from the gas mixture.
[0009] [3] A method for deep removal of carbon dioxide from a mixed gas includes: contacting the mixed gas with a weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent, wherein the weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent selectively adsorbs carbon dioxide molecules, and the exclusion molecular dynamics diameter is greater than that of the carbon dioxide molecules. Other gases can be used to achieve deep removal of carbon dioxide from the gas mixture.
[0010] In any one of the methods described in [1] to [3], the preparation method of the weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent includes the following steps:
[0011] (1) Selective adsorption of weak acid salt species: The molecular sieve is placed in a weak acid salt solution and the two are brought into full contact at a certain temperature, so that the weak acid salt species are selectively adsorbed into the molecular sieve pores.
[0012] The molecular sieve is selected from at least one of MFI molecular sieve, FAU molecular sieve, MOR molecular sieve, BETA molecular sieve, CHA molecular sieve, MEL molecular sieve, FER molecular sieve, and EMT molecular sieve.
[0013] The anion of the weak acid salt is selected from metaborate ion (BO2). - ), silicate ions (SiO3) 2- aluminate ions (AlO2) - ), vanadate ions (VO4) 3- ), tellurite ions (TeO3) 2- ), phosphate ions (PO4) 3- At least one of the following, wherein the cation is a metal ion;
[0014] (2) High-temperature calcination: After drying the molecular sieve after selective adsorption of weak acid salt species in step (1), it is calcined in an inert atmosphere and / or air atmosphere at 350-650℃ (e.g. 450℃) to obtain the weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent.
[0015] In the weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent, the weak acid salt species are adsorbed in the molecular sieve channels in the form of a single or 2 to 3 oligomers.
[0016] In step (1), the crystal size of the molecular sieve can be 0.03 to 100 μm, and more specifically 30 to 50 μm.
[0017] In step (1), the cation of the weak acid salt can be Li. + Na + K + Mg 2+ Ca 2+ Ba 2+ At least one of the following. For example, the weak acid salt may be at least one of NaBO2, Na2SiO3, NaAlO2, Na3PO4, Na3VO4, and Na2TeO3.

[0024] This invention provides a weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent material with molecular sieving function by adsorbing weak acid salt species as modifiers into the molecular sieve channels and then calcining them at high temperature. This achieves precise control of the pore size and gas molecule diffusion dynamics of the zeolite molecular sieve material. Because the molecular dynamic diameters of water and carbon dioxide are smaller than those of other gas molecules in the gas mixture (such as acetylene, nitrogen, methane, ethylene, ethane, hydrogen bromide, etc.), and the pore size of the molecular sieve material after selective adsorption of weak acid salt species is significantly reduced, this type of weak acid salt molecular sieve adsorbent only adsorbs water and carbon dioxide with smaller molecular dynamic diameters, while adsorbing molecules with larger molecular dynamic diameters... Gas molecules cannot enter the pores, thus achieving selective removal of water and carbon dioxide from the mixed gas. Therefore, this type of weak acid salt molecular sieve material possesses both high adsorption capacity and high adsorption separation selectivity for water and carbon dioxide, making it a promising adsorbent for the removal of water and carbon dioxide from mixed gases.
