Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of coal chemical desulfurizer preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a coal gas desulfurizer capable of being efficiently regenerated. BACKGROUND
[0002] As one of the three fossil energies, coal has an important position as a basic energy in economic development, but various environmental problems caused by direct combustion of coal have to be paid attention to. The integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) technology is based on clean and efficient utilization of coal, and has been widely applied in many countries and regions. Coal gas, as a power source and raw material in the IGCC technology, contains a large amount of sulfides, more than 90% of which are hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. Hydrogen sulfide not only causes corrosion of industrial equipment and poisoning of catalysts, but also causes threats to ecological environment and human health after being discharged into the atmosphere. Therefore, hydrogen sulfide in the coal gas must be completely removed before the coal gas is used.
[0003] The dry desulfurization utilizes metal oxides in the solid desulfurizer to convert and remove H2S by chemical reaction, and has the advantages of simple process flow, no waste water and waste acid treatment problem, low energy consumption, small corrosion to equipment, low cost and the like. Studies have shown that the desulfurizer with zinc oxide as an active component has higher desulfurization accuracy and desulfurization efficiency than other oxide desulfurizers, but zinc oxide is easy to volatilize in the high-temperature regeneration process, resulting in loss of active components and serious performance decline. Copper oxide has strong affinity and adsorption capacity with hydrogen sulfide. Some scholars have found that the copper oxide desulfurizer has higher desulfurization accuracy, is less affected by temperature and has good regeneration performance.
[0004] Then, the existing dry desulfurization technology has the disadvantages of large amount of desulfurizer loading, frequent replacement of desulfurizer, difficult regeneration of waste desulfurizer and difficult solid waste treatment. Although the preparation method and regeneration process of the existing desulfurizer are relatively mature, there are still the disadvantages of high regeneration temperature, short service life and high operation cost caused by difficult regeneration. Therefore, the existing desulfurizer cannot meet the requirements of actual industrial application, and development of a new type of solid desulfurizer capable of being efficiently regenerated, which has high desulfurization efficiency, speed and selectivity, is still one of the goals of gas desulfurization technology. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application relates to the technical field of coal chemical desulfurizer preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a coal gas desulfurizer capable of being efficiently regenerated.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present application provides the following solutions.
[0007] One of the technical solutions of the present application: a preparation method of a coal gas desulfurizer capable of efficient regeneration, comprising the following steps: sequentially immersing a silica nanofiber aerogel carrier in a mixed solution of zinc nitrate and iron nitrate, a KNO3 solution, a NaF solution, and a NaCl solution to obtain a desulfurizer precursor; and performing microwave low-temperature calcination on the desulfurizer precursor to generate active component ZnFe2O4 in the silica nanofiber aerogel carrier, thereby obtaining the coal gas desulfurizer capable of efficient regeneration.
[0008] Further, the porosity of the silica nanofiber aerogel carrier is 95-99.99%, and the diameter of the silica nanofiber therein is 100-1000 nm.
[0009] Further, the molar ratio of zinc nitrate to iron nitrate in the mixed solution of zinc nitrate and iron nitrate is 1:2, and the concentration of zinc nitrate is 0.1 mol / L.
[0010] Further, the concentration of each of the KNO3 solution, the NaF solution, and the NaCl solution is 1-4 mmol / L.
[0011] Further, the volume ratio of the silica nanofiber aerogel carrier to the mixed solution of zinc nitrate and iron nitrate, the KNO3 solution, the NaF solution, and the NaCl solution in the immersion process is 1:1, and the immersion time is 24 h.
[0012] The immersion of the silica nanofiber aerogel carrier in the mixed solution of zinc nitrate and iron nitrate, the KNO3 solution, the NaF solution, and the NaCl solution is an equal-volume impregnation process between the aerogel solid and the liquid, and the carrier can absorb all the impregnation liquid in the equal-volume impregnation process. The immersion of the silica nanofiber aerogel carrier in the KNO3 solution, the NaF solution, and the NaCl solution, instead of in a mixed solution of KNO3, NaF, and NaCl, is to avoid competition between different ions and improve the impregnation loading effect, so that all ions can be loaded on the carrier.
[0013] Further, the specific parameters of the microwave low-temperature calcination include: an oxygen concentration of 5-20 vol%, a microwave power of 1500-3000 W, a calcination temperature of 240°C, and a calcination time of 2 h.
[0014] The second technical solution of the present application: a coal gas desulfurizer capable of efficient regeneration prepared by the above preparation method.
[0015] Further, the coal gas desulfurizer capable of efficient regeneration takes the silica nanofiber aerogel as a carrier, and the carrier is loaded with active component ZnFe2O4, which can be referred to as a ZnFe2O4 / silica nanofiber aerogel composite desulfurizer.
[0016] Furthermore, the ZnFe2O4 content in the highly efficient regenerable coal gas desulfurizer is 62.0 wt%.
[0017] The third technical solution of the present invention: a regeneration method for the above-mentioned highly efficient regenerable coal gas desulfurizer, comprising the following steps: using a mixed gas with an oxygen concentration of 2 vol%, at a temperature of 450°C for 2000 h. -1 The desulfurizing agent for coal gas that has undergone desulfurization reaction is regenerated at a space velocity of 0.5 to obtain the regenerated coal gas desulfurizing agent.
[0018] Furthermore, the mixed gas is a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen (i.e., nitrogen is used as the balance gas), which can be expressed as 2 vol% oxygen + 98 vol% nitrogen.
[0019] Furthermore, the specific operation of the desulfurization reaction is as follows: A highly efficient regenerable coal gas desulfurizing agent is placed in a fixed-bed reactor and reacted at a rate of 2000 h⁻¹. -1 Gas is introduced at air velocity and desulfurization reaction is carried out at 500℃.
[0020] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:
[0021] This invention utilizes silica nanofiber aerogel as a carrier to prepare a ZnFe2O4 / silica nanofiber aerogel composite desulfurizer through methods such as metal salt solution impregnation and microwave low-temperature calcination. It possesses the following advantages:
[0022] (1) This invention uses silica nanofiber aerogel as a carrier to prepare desulfurizer. It utilizes the open pore structure, high flexibility and stable physical structure of nanofiber aerogel, and combines the excellent wear resistance and heat resistance of silica nanofiber. While providing support for the overall structure of the desulfurizer, the stable physical structure and rich pore structure of nanofiber aerogel can promote the adsorption and reaction process of desulfurizer and maintain the long-term cyclic use performance of desulfurizer.
[0023] (2) The process steps of the present invention are simple, highly controllable, and easy to operate, which can meet the large market demand. The silica nanofiber aerogel has good support, high flexibility, high toughness and strength, high porosity and large specific surface area, and can realize multi-component composite and multi-level structure synergy.
[0024] (3) More importantly, the present application combines zinc with iron, in addition to being able to form a composite oxide, improve the stability of zinc, the regeneration performance of the desulfurizer, also can be based on the difference in size of zinc, iron ions, the lattice structure stability of the composite oxide is reduced; on this basis, by using the lattice diffusion of iron ions in the low temperature calcination process, the migration of alkali metal potassium, sodium, the promotion effect of non-metallic fluorine, chlorine on oxygen vacancy and microwave radiation on metal ion migration, produce significant cohen-tal effect, and then make zinc iron composite oxide produce a large number of lattice defects (metal ion defects and oxygen vacancies), even change to hollow structure (such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown); on this basis, after the desulfurizer is subjected to desulfurization reaction, due to the replacement process of sulfur ions and oxygen ions, but the diffusion rates of the two ions are different, therefore, the cohen-tal effect of metal ions still exists, and a large number of lattice defects (metal ion defects and sulfur vacancies, such as Figure 3 shown) are still produced. Taking the oxygen regeneration process of the desulfurizer as an example, the existence of the lattice defects of the sulfidation product is not only beneficial to the adsorption and dissociation of oxygen, but also beneficial to weakening the chemical bond between metal and sulfur and reducing the bond activation energy, thereby reducing the regeneration reaction temperature, avoiding the adverse effects of high temperature sintering on the desulfurizer, maintaining the efficient gas-solid reaction rate and mass transfer efficiency, and improving the cyclic use performance of the desulfurizer. Through testing, the desulfurizer prepared by the method of the present application not only has a single-time active component utilization rate of more than 99.9%, but also has a regeneration reaction temperature reduced to 450 DEG C, a desulfurizer regeneration rate of 97%, and an active component utilization rate of 99.9% after ten cycles of sulfidation-regeneration.

[0036] The testing and calculation methods of sulfur capacity, active component utilization rate and desulfurizer regeneration rate in the following examples and comparative examples are as follows:
[0037] The desulfurization performance of the sample is evaluated by breakthrough sulfur capacity.

The detailed calculation method is as follows:
[0038]
[0039] In the formula, F is the flow rate of the simulated coal gas (mL / min), M s is the molar mass of S (32.06 g / mol), V m is the molar volume of the gas at 25°C and 101.325 kPa (24.5 L / mol); C0 and C represent the inlet and outlet concentrations of H2S (ppm), respectively; M 脱硫剂 corresponds to the mass of the desulfurizer (g).
[0040] Active component utilization rate = actual sulfur capacity / theoretical sulfur capacity x 100%.
[0041] Regeneration rate = (mass lost by the desulfurizer during regeneration / mass increased by the desulfurizer during desulfurization) x 100%.
