Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of gas separation, and in particular to a gas separation device based on a solid oxide fuel cell. Background Art
[0002] In the solid oxide fuel cell system, the gas separation device is a very important component. It is mainly used to separate and purify the reaction gas to ensure that the fuel gas supplied to the anode is of high purity. At the same time, the oxidant at the cathode is properly treated. This can improve the reaction efficiency of the battery and reduce the damage of impurity gases to the electrodes and electrolytes, thereby extending the service life of the battery.
[0003] According to the application number: CN200910053755.7, a one-step pressure swing adsorption device for purifying hydrogen for fuel cell hydrogen supply is disclosed, which belongs to the field of energy and gas separation technology. The invention comprises two adsorption towers, four three-way joints, two pressure gauges, six reversing valves, a raw gas tank, a vacuum pump, and a hydrogen collection tank. Three selective adsorbents, namely Al2O3, activated carbon, and molecular sieve, are loaded in the first adsorption tower and the second adsorption tower in order from bottom to top. When the hydrogen-rich gas passes through the pressure swing adsorption device, the three adsorbents can remove CO, CH4, CO2, and H2O in one step. Two towers are used for pressure swing adsorption, and pressure adsorption and pressure reduction desorption are carried out simultaneously, which can continuously output H2. The invention adopts a one-step method to treat impurity gas, which greatly shortens the purification process, makes the CO content lower than 10×10-6, is simple to operate, and has low energy consumption. It can provide high-purity H2 for direct use in fuel cells.
