Description

1. Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of catalytic chemistry technology, and in particular, relates to a method for enhancing the efficiency of photoelectric composite catalytic reactions by adaptive multi-field coupling. The method focuses on solving the problems of the existing photoelectric composite reaction device, such as complex equipment structure, unclear mechanism, mutual interference of photoelectric reactions, low energy efficiency, and limited adjustability, so as to improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption, and at the same time achieve the effect of enhancing catalytic conversion reactions. 2. Background Technology

[0002] Photoelectric composite reactors have shown extensive application potential in the fields of environment, energy and chemical synthesis. In terms of environmental remediation, photoelectric composite catalytic technology is used to degrade organic pollutants in water and air. For example, the degradation of drug residues and difficult-to-degrade organic pollutants through photoelectric composite catalytic reactors has significantly improved efficiency compared with traditional photocatalysis. In the field of energy, photoelectric composite catalytic carbon dioxide reduction reactors can convert CO2 into fuels such as methane and methanol, and its conversion efficiency can reach more than 60% under certain conditions, providing important technical support for carbon neutrality. In chemical synthesis, photoelectric composite reactors are used to efficiently synthesize high-value-added chemicals. For example, CH bond activation can be achieved through photoelectric composite catalysis, and its reaction rate is more than 3 times higher than that of traditional methods. In addition, photoelectric composite catalytic reactors have also made significant progress in the fields of solar fuel preparation and water decomposition to produce hydrogen. These applications show that photoelectric composite reactors are of great value in solving environmental and energy problems.

[0003] Although photoelectric composite reactors have been widely used in many fields, their structural complexity and efficiency issues limit their further promotion. Existing reactors usually adopt a fixed structure design, such as a single-chamber or double-chamber reactor, and their electrode layout, light source position and reaction chamber shape are often not adjustable, resulting in limited optimization of reaction conditions. In addition, the multi-field coupling effects such as light, electricity, and heat inside the reactor are difficult to accurately control. For example, uneven light intensity distribution will lead to low local reaction efficiency, and excessive electric field intensity may induce side reactions. These problems make it difficult to break through the overall efficiency of the reactor. For example, the quantum efficiency of some photoelectric composite catalytic reactors is only 20%-30%, which is far below the theoretical value. At the same time, the scalability of existing reactors is poor, and it is difficult to adapt to the needs of reactions of different scales and types. For example, in scale-up experiments, the reaction efficiency often drops significantly. These shortcomings show that the existing photoelectric composite reactors have significant defects in structure and performance, and they urgently need to be improved through technological innovation.

[0004] In order to improve the defects of photoelectric composite reactors, domestic and foreign research teams and enterprises have actively explored structural design and performance optimization. For example, the team of Professor Feng Xinjian of Soochow University developed a three-phase photocatalytic reaction system. By introducing the gas-liquid-solid three-phase interface, the oxygen transmission efficiency and photogenerated carrier separation efficiency were significantly improved, and the quantum efficiency was increased by 5 times (J.Am.Chem.Soc., 2017, 139, 12402). Sun Yat-sen University (CN202010365016.8) proposed a new photoelectric composite catalytic reactor, which adopts an air diffusion cathode design and improves the pollutant degradation efficiency by in-situ generation of hydroxyl radicals (·OH). Its energy utilization rate is 40% higher than that of traditional reactors. In addition, the gas-solid phase photocatalytic reactor developed by Bofeilai Technology (CN202320652037.7) realizes full contact between the reaction gas and the catalyst through the gas circulation loop design, which increases the reaction efficiency by more than 30%. Sinopec (CN203525696U) has developed a fluidized bed photochemical reactor that significantly improves the reaction uniformity and stability by optimizing the distribution and flow pattern of photocatalysts. These innovations show that the performance of photoelectric composite reactors can be significantly improved through structural optimization and multi-field coupling regulation, providing an important reference for future technological development. But in general, the design and application of current photoelectric composite reactors are still focused on simple improvements to the types of traditional reactors, and there are still defects in two extremely important aspects:

[0005] 1) Improve the adaptability of the reactor so that the energy efficiency of light irradiation can accurately cover the points required for photocatalysis, and minimize the mutual interference between photoelectric reactions;

[0006] 2) In order to match the adaptability of the reactor, improvements are made to the electrocatalysis, photocatalysis and supporting photoelectric management systems. III. Summary of the invention

[0007] The present invention is made in view of the problems existing in the prior art, and aims to significantly improve the chemical reaction rate by optimizing the interaction between the four key physical fields of light, electricity, flow and heat. This method not only involves precision-designed hardware facilities, but also integrates advanced intelligent algorithms, so that the entire system can self-adjust according to real-time data to achieve optimal performance.

[0008] First, in order to match the adaptability of the reactor, the management systems such as electrocatalysis, photocatalysis and supporting photoelectric sensors are improved. The selected components need to have high activity, high stability and high adjustability to form a mutually matched technical system. Ru doping improves the crystal structure of PbO2, increases the number of surface active sites, and further promotes the occurrence of redox reactions, making the Ru-doped PbO2 anode more than three times more efficient than the traditional PbO2 anode; Ti5O7 / Ti3O4 each has unique physical and chemical properties. Mixing the two in a mass ratio of 4:1 can form an efficient photocatalytic layer, which not only inherits the good light absorption characteristics and stability of TiO2, but also greatly improves the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers due to the synergistic effect between Ti5O7 / Ti3O4, and its quantum yield is about 20% higher than that of a single TiO2 material. In addition, the Ti2N3 on the surface layer plays a role in protecting the bottom layer, while also enhancing the light absorption capacity and catalytic effect; Furthermore, the combination of LED array and reflection / lens system ensures the optimization of lighting conditions. LED light sources are selected for their high energy efficiency, long life and wide wavelength range. The wavelength (300-800nm) and intensity (0.1-5W / cm 2 ), which can meet the needs of different catalysts. The reflector and lens system ensures that the light is evenly irradiated to the entire reaction area, avoiding the problem of uneven local illumination. This design is crucial to improving light utilization, especially in photocatalytic reactions, where uniform and high-intensity illumination is one of the key factors for achieving efficient reactions. Finally, distributed silicon photodiodes and quantum dot fluorescent probe sensors are installed to monitor key parameters in the reaction process in real time. These sensors can provide information about changes in reactant concentrations, by-product generation, and environmental conditions (such as temperature, pH value, and oxygen content), helping the intelligent control system to make accurate adjustment decisions, ensuring full coverage of the reaction area, and making data acquisition more detailed and reliable, which plays an irreplaceable role in optimizing multi-field coupling conditions and improving reaction efficiency.

[0009] The light field, electric field, flow field and thermal field are interrelated and key factors that jointly affect the reaction efficiency in the photoelectric composite reactor. The main input variables are as follows. The light field is mainly provided by an adjustable light source, and its intensity I (W / cm 2 ) and wavelength λ(nm) play a decisive role in the excitation of the catalyst; the electric field promotes the electron transfer process by applying voltage V(V) and current I(A) between the cathode and the anode; the flow field refers to the flow characteristics of the reactant liquid or gas, including flow velocity v(m / s) and flow rate Q(L / min); and the thermal field maintains the stability of the reaction environment by controlling the temperature T(℃). There is a complex nonlinear relationship between the above four fields. For example, the light intensity I and temperature T will directly affect the reaction rate constant k on the electrode surface, that is:

[0010] k=A·eE a / RT

[0011] Among them, A is the frequency factor, E a is the activation energy, and R is the ideal gas constant. In addition, the potential distribution in the electric field will also affect the particle mobility, thereby changing the flow field conditions. In order to achieve multi-field coupling, the present invention introduces machine learning algorithms such as enhanced random forest (RF++), and establishes a prediction model by learning a large amount of experimental data to guide the optimal configuration of each field parameter.

[0012] The RF++ algorithm is based on an integrated learning framework and gradually adds weak classifiers through the Boosting mechanism to improve overall performance. It can perform well when processing high-dimensional complex data and has good generalization capabilities. During the training process, historical experimental results are used as input features, covering reaction rate information under light, electric field and flow field conditions, to build a powerful prediction model. When actually running, the system collects current sensor data, including but not limited to light intensity, voltage, current, flow rate and other information, and inputs it into the RF++ model to obtain the most suitable operating parameter recommendations for given conditions.

[0013] In order to achieve "adaptive" control, the control system is developed in Python language, integrating RF++ model and other necessary functional modules. The software can not only dynamically adjust the light source output parameters such as wavelength, intensity and its distribution, but also optimize the voltage and current settings between the electrode plates, and even accurately control the flow rate and flow of the reaction liquid. For example, in terms of light field control, the PID controller maintains the set value stable, with an error of no more than ±0.05W / cm 2 In the electric field regulation, an overcurrent protection circuit is built in to prevent the equipment from being damaged due to abnormal conditions. More importantly, with the help of AI models to predict the optimal multi-field coupling solution, the system can continuously iterate and optimize, continuously improve the chemical reaction rate while reducing energy consumption, and ultimately achieve the goal of energy saving and consumption reduction.
