Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photocatalysis technology, and in particular to a multifunctional planar catalytic reaction device and method with high light energy utilization rate. Background Art

[0002] Solar energy is the cleanest energy with the widest coverage and longest availability on the earth. The energy reaching the earth every second is equivalent to burning 5 million tons of coal. Therefore, the effective use of solar energy is crucial to the sustainable development of mankind in the future. Photocatalysis, as an important technical means to directly convert solar energy into chemical energy, can directly turn this clean energy into useful chemicals needed by society, and has received widespread attention from the international academic and industrial circles. After decades of research, the photocatalyst material system based on plasmon metal materials, semiconductor materials, organic polymer materials, metal oxide / sulfide materials, metal organic framework (MOF) materials, covalent organic framework (COF) materials, two-dimensional materials (MXene), quantum dot materials, etc. has been established and greatly developed, involving applications including water decomposition to produce hydrogen, carbon dioxide conversion, methane conversion, organic molecule conversion, nitrogen fixation, water pollution control, air purification, etc., covering energy chemical industry, organic chemical industry, agriculture, environmental governance and other fields.

[0003] At present, although certain breakthroughs have been made in the research on photocatalytic theory and system, there are still many problems to be solved in the design of photocatalytic reactors. One of the key issues is that light, as an electromagnetic wave, will inevitably undergo elastic or inelastic scattering when it interacts with the catalyst. For example, the reflection and refraction phenomena we are familiar with. This results in that the light energy that is ultimately absorbed and utilized by the catalyst in a single incident light only accounts for a small part of the total incident energy. Therefore, how to extend the propagation path of light in the reactor so that it interacts with the catalyst multiple times, thereby increasing the proportion of light energy absorbed and utilized, has become an important issue that needs to be urgently solved to improve the energy conversion efficiency of the photocatalytic reactor.

[0035] Combine the following Figures 1 to 6 It should be understood that the following description is only an illustrative embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any limitation to the present invention.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the multifunctional planar catalytic reaction device with high light energy utilization rate includes a reaction layer 3, a light-transmitting layer 1 and a temperature-controlling layer 8.

[0037] The multifunctional planar catalytic reaction device with high light energy utilization rate provided by the present invention introduces incident light by setting an opening on the side wall of the flow channel 4, and sets a high-reflectivity optical coating 5 on the inner wall of the flow channel 4. While keeping the reaction device simple in structure and easy to operate, the scattering path of the incident light is effectively extended.

One or more temperature sensors 6 may be provided, and the multiple temperature sensors 6 are provided in different areas to detect the temperature values ​​of different areas.

[0040] Furthermore, the temperature sensor 6 is electrically connected to the control device.

The control device controls the heating power of the resistance wire according to the temperature value obtained by the temperature sensor 6, so that the temperature inside the reaction layer 3 remains constant, thereby realizing closed-loop control.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, the multifunctional planar catalytic reaction device with high light energy utilization rate further includes a pressure sensor (not shown), which is disposed in the flow channel 4 and is used to detect the pressure value in the flow channel 4.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, a plane light concentrator (not shown), a photovoltaic power generation sheet 9 or a photothermal conversion element 10 is provided on the side of the light-transmitting layer 1 facing away from the reaction layer 3. The plane light concentrator is used to converge the incident light into the flow channel 4. The shape of the plane light concentrator can be cylindrical, spherical or other shapes. The specific type of the plane light concentrator can be a Fresnel lens or other lenses. Of course, the shape and specific type of the plane light concentrator are not limited thereto, and are specifically determined according to the shape of the flow channel 4 and the light usage range.

[0043] The photovoltaic power generation sheet 9 is one or a combination of silicon solar cells, inorganic salt (such as gallium arsenide III-V compounds, cadmium sulfide, copper indium selenide, etc.) multi-compound cells, functional polymer solar cells, nanocrystalline solar cells, etc., and an electrode assembly 7 is arranged inside the flow channel 4, and the photovoltaic power generation sheet 9 is electrically connected to the electrode assembly 7; the photovoltaic power generation sheet 9 supplies power to the electrode assembly 7 by converting light energy into electrical energy.

[0044] The photothermal conversion element 10 is used to convert light energy into thermal energy to heat the reaction layer 3 and provide heat for the catalytic reaction. The photothermal conversion element 10 is one or a combination of carbon-based photothermal conversion elements, plasmon photothermal conversion elements, semiconductor photothermal conversion elements, or polymer photothermal conversion elements. The photothermal conversion element 10 can be arranged in a variety of ways. The photothermal conversion element 10 can be coated or embedded on the side of the light-transmitting layer 1 away from the reaction layer 3.

[0045] It should be noted here that the planar light concentrator, photovoltaic power generation sheet 9 or photothermal conversion element 10 is located between the two flow channels 4, which effectively solves the problem that part of the original light cannot be used, and further improves the catalytic conversion efficiency of the reaction device; combined with steady-state temperature control to increase the service life of the catalyst and reduce the side reaction rate, high light energy conversion rate and selective catalytic reaction can be finally achieved. The planar catalytic reaction device of the present invention can be used by connecting multiple planar catalytic reaction devices in parallel or in series to form a photocatalytic reaction array for use to meet the needs of industrial production.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, the specific type of the catalyst can be one or a combination of metal nanocatalysts, semiconductor nanocatalysts or composite catalysts.

[0047] It should be noted that the reaction raw materials undergo a photocatalytic reaction in the flow channel 4. Of course, the catalytic reaction can also be an electrocatalytic reaction or a thermal catalytic reaction.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, the optical coating 5 is made of a material with high reflectivity, and the material of the optical coating 5 is foamed polytetrafluoroethylene, barium sulfate or metal crystal surface. The optical coating 5 can make the light reflect multiple times in the flow channel 4, and re-converge the scattered light to the surface of the catalyst, so as to realize the reuse of the scattered light, thereby improving the utilization rate of the incident light by the reaction device.

Of course, the width of each flow channel unit may also be unequal. A plurality of flow channel units are connected end to end in sequence to form the flow channel 4, so that the flow channel 4 is an S-shaped curved flow channel. Such a structural design can increase the movement distance of the reactants in the flow channel 4, increase the reaction time of the reactants, and ensure that the reactants react fully. Of course, the structural form of the flow channel 4 is not limited thereto, and is determined according to specific requirements such as reaction flow rate and heat exchange requirements.

[0050] Furthermore, in order to reduce the resistance encountered by the fluid during its flow in the flow channel 4, two adjacent flow channel units are connected via an arc-shaped flow channel 4, so that in the process of the fluid entering the next flow channel unit from the previous flow channel unit, the resistance encountered by the flow channel 4 is reduced, which can reduce the pressure requirement for the reaction material when entering the flow channel 4.

[0051] The opening extends along the length of the flow channel 4, and the width of the opening is less than two-thirds of the maximum width of the cross section of the flow channel 4. The cross section of the flow channel 4 is circular, elliptical or other shapes. By making the width of the opening less than two-thirds of the maximum width of the cross section of the flow channel 4, the reflected light is reduced from being emitted through the opening while ensuring that the incident light can enter, ensuring that the light can be reflected multiple times in the flow channel 4.

[0052] It should be noted that the length direction of the reaction layer 3 is Figure 1 The left and right directions in the figure, and the width direction of the reaction layer 3 is Figure 1 The up and down directions in .
