Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a heat storage material, and belongs to the technical field of heat storage materials. Background Art
[0002] The calcium cycle based on calcium-based thermal storage materials is a solar energy storage technology based on calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) and calcium oxide (CaO) to achieve heat storage and release. 3 It has become the preferred material for calcium recycling technology due to its abundant raw materials, low price, non-toxicity and high energy density.
[0003] Calcium circulation technology is usually carried out in a fluidized bed reactor in industry. Making calcium-based heat storage materials into spherical particles is conducive to their fluidization and can be better applied to fluidized bed reactors. At present, the main method is to first prepare powdered calcium-based heat storage materials, and then use extrusion-spheronization operations to prepare spherical particles. At the same time, in order to obtain loose and porous calcium-based microspheres and improve heat and mass transfer during the cyclic reaction process, templates such as glucose and cellulose are often added during the particle preparation process, which increases the synthesis cost of the material. Therefore, how to prepare porous calcium-based microspheres efficiently and at low cost through simple methods is an urgent problem to be solved in calcium circulation technology. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing porous calcium-based heat storage microspheres, which solves the problem that the prior art cannot directly prepare porous spherical calcium-based heat storage materials but requires extrusion and spheronization and uses an organic carbon source as a template for preparation.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A method for preparing porous calcium-based heat storage microspheres, comprising the steps of:
[0006] Step 1, dissolving a soluble calcium salt, a soluble cerium salt and a soluble zirconium salt in deionized water to obtain a mixed solution, wherein the molar ratio of cerium ions to zirconium ions in the mixed solution is 1:(1-5);
[0007] Step 2, adding the mixed solution dropwise into a soluble inorganic carbonate solution to fully precipitate calcium ions, cerium ions and zirconium ions to obtain a suspension;
[0008] Step 3, stirring the suspension and centrifuging it to obtain the precipitate and wash it;
[0009] Step 4: Place the precipitate in an oven for drying and then calcine to obtain porous calcium-based heat storage microspheres.
[0010] Furthermore, when the mixed solution is added dropwise into the soluble inorganic carbonate solution, the dropping speed is such that the volume of the mixed solution added dropwise per minute is no more than 1% of the volume of the soluble inorganic carbonate solution.
[0011] Furthermore, the molar concentration of the soluble inorganic carbonate solution is 10 to 50 times the total molar concentration of cerium ions, zirconium ions and calcium ions in the mixed solution.
[0012] Furthermore, the molar ratio of cerium ions to zirconium ions in the mixed solution is 1:(1.4-4.2).
[0013] Furthermore, the molar ratio of the sum of cerium ions and zirconium ions to calcium ions in the mixed solution is 1:(20-25).
[0014] Furthermore, the precipitate is rinsed with deionized water before being dried until the conductivity of the rinse liquid is less than 10 μS / cm.
[0015] Furthermore, the drying temperature is 100 to 150° C., and the drying time is 12 to 24 hours.
[0016] Furthermore, the calcination temperature is 750-900° C., and the calcination time is 0.5-4 hours.
[0017] Furthermore, the heating rate during the calcination is 1 to 5°C / min.
[0018] Furthermore, the particle size of the porous calcium-based heat storage microspheres is 15 to 30 μm.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the technical solution provided by the present invention are:
[0020] The present invention is a convenient one-step method for preparing cerium-zirconium modified calcium-based heat storage beads with a micro-nano porous structure. Calcium-based heat storage beads can be directly obtained without the need to prepare powders first and then synthesize spherical particles. The synthesis method is simple and easy to operate. In addition, in the particle preparation process, there is no need to add templates such as glucose and cellulose, which effectively reduces the synthesis cost of the material.
