Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of carbon dioxide separation, and particularly to a method and device for capturing and fixing carbon dioxide in ship exhaust gas. Background Art

[0002] The shipping industry is an important source of carbon dioxide emissions, especially ocean-going ships that mainly consume fossil fuels such as heavy oil. Capturing carbon dioxide from ship exhaust gas is an important carbon emission reduction technology. At present, chemical absorption process routes are mostly used for capturing carbon dioxide from ship exhaust gas. This technology uses alkaline absorbents to undergo acid-base neutralization reactions with carbon dioxide, thereby separating carbon dioxide in ship exhaust gas. According to whether the alkaline absorbent is recycled in the carbon dioxide capture process, the carbon dioxide capture process can be divided into a cyclic absorption process and a non-cyclic absorption process.

[0003] The non-cyclic absorption process generally uses strong alkaline absorbents to undergo irreversible reactions with CO2 in ship exhaust gas. Since the absorbent is not renewable, it will result in a relatively high cost for carbon capture from ship exhaust gas. In comparison, renewable weak alkaline organic amine absorbents are usually used in the cyclic absorption process to undergo reversible reactions with CO2, and then carbon dioxide can be desorbed by heating to realize the regeneration of the absorbent (for example, patent CN113828120A). This method can reduce the absorbent cost, but there are problems such as high energy consumption for absorbent regeneration, and the captured carbon dioxide is not fixed. The separated gaseous carbon dioxide needs to be compressed, liquefied, and stored using additional equipment, resulting in a relatively large floor area for the entire device, which limits the application of this carbon dioxide capture process on ships. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, that is, in the existing carbon dioxide cyclic absorption process, there are high energy consumption for absorbent regeneration, the captured carbon dioxide is not fixed, and additional CO2 compression and liquefaction devices and CO2 storage tanks need to be added. The present invention provides a method and device for capturing and fixing carbon dioxide in ship exhaust gas. By using the method of the present invention, the energy consumption for regenerating the amine catalyst can be reduced, and the CO2 is directly fixed to form a solid-phase product after capture, which can eliminate the subsequent processes of CO2 compression, liquefaction, and storage in a tank, thereby reducing the floor area of the device.

[0005] The specific technical solution of the present invention is as follows: In the first aspect, the present invention provides a method for capturing and fixing carbon dioxide in ship exhaust gas, including the following steps: S1: Pass seawater, an amine catalyst, and ship exhaust gas into a CO2 capture tower to complete the CO2 absorption reaction, and discharge the decarbonized exhaust gas and mixture I; the CO2 absorption reaction includes: , , , Among them, CA is an amine catalyst; S2: Feed the mixture I into a CO2 fixation reactor. After completing the CO2 fixation precipitation reaction, perform solid-liquid separation, and discharge the CO2 fixation product and mixture II; The CO2 fixation precipitation reaction includes: , ; S3: Feed the mixture II into a catalyst regenerator. After completing the catalyst regeneration reaction, perform solid-liquid separation, and discharge the CO2 fixation product and mixture III. After concentrating mixture III, recycle it to S1; The catalyst regeneration reaction includes: , .

[0006] The principle of carbon dioxide capture and fixation in the present invention is as follows: (1) First, under the action of an amine catalyst, CO2 is absorbed by the mixture of seawater and the amine catalyst through a CO2 absorption reaction. The specific CO2 absorption reaction is as follows: ; ; .

[0007] (2) Under the action of calcium ions and magnesium ions in seawater, the CO3 formed after CO2 is absorbed by the mixture of seawater and the amine catalyst 2− undergoes a CO2 fixation precipitation reaction and is converted into a precipitate. The specific CO2 fixation precipitation reaction is as follows: ; .

[0008] (3) Through the catalyst regeneration reaction, the amine catalyst after absorbing CO2 can be regenerated. At the same time, the released carbon-containing substances precipitate under the action of calcium ions and magnesium ions in seawater. The specific catalyst regeneration reaction is as follows: ; .

[0009] In the above process, the CO2 absorption reaction is completed in the CO2 capture tower. At the same time, a partial CO2 fixation precipitation reaction also occurs in the CO2 capture tower; in the CO2 fixation reactor, the CO2 fixation precipitation reaction is completed, and a partial catalyst regeneration reaction occurs simultaneously. The CO2 fixation products (CaCO3 and MgCO3) can be separated by solid-liquid separation; in the catalyst regenerator, the catalyst regeneration reaction is completed, and the CO2 fixation products (CaCO3 and MgCO3) can be separated by solid-liquid separation.

[0010] In the above way, the present invention can directly use seawater to capture and fix carbon dioxide in ship exhaust gas, without consuming fresh water on the ship or undergoing a complex seawater desalination process; moreover, after being captured, the CO2 is directly fixed to form solid-phase products (CaCO3 and MgCO3), which can eliminate the subsequent processes of CO2 compression, liquefaction, and storage in tanks, thus reducing the floor area of the entire device and lowering energy consumption, especially suitable for ship conditions; in addition, through the process of the present invention, the recycling of amine catalysts can be realized, enabling the entire device to operate in a long cycle, reducing the catalyst cost, and the present invention uses calcium ions and magnesium ions in seawater to regenerate the amine catalyst, which can reduce the energy consumption for catalyst regeneration.

[0011] In addition, the present invention separates the CO2 absorption reaction, the CO2 fixation precipitation reaction, and the catalyst regeneration reaction in three reaction devices (CO2 capture tower, CO2 fixation reactor, catalyst regenerator). This design has the following effects: The CO2 absorption reaction is an exothermic reaction, which easily causes the temperature in the CO2 capture tower to rise, and the temperature at the upper part of the CO2 capture tower may reach a relatively high level. Separating the CO2 fixation precipitation reaction and the catalyst regeneration reaction from the CO2 absorption reaction in different devices is conducive to controlling the temperature during the CO2 fixation precipitation reaction and the catalyst regeneration reaction, thereby promoting the progress of these two reactions.

[0012] Preferably, in step S1, the amine catalyst is one of the following a) or b): a) Comprising diethylenetriamine and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine with a mass ratio of 1:0.0033 - 0.2; b) Comprising 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol and 1-methyl-4-piperidinol with a mass ratio of 1:0.15 - 1.6.

[0013] Both of the above a) and b) amine catalysts are liquid-phase catalysts, which can achieve homogeneous catalysis and have a high CO2 capture efficiency. Moreover, in the two amine catalysts of a) and b), two specific components are respectively compounded, and under the ratio of the present invention, they can produce a synergistic effect and improve the catalytic effect. The specific mechanism is as follows: In a), by compounding diethylenetriamine and 2,2,6,6 - tetramethylpiperidine in a mass ratio of 1:0.0033 - 0.2, a relatively high CO2 capture efficiency can be achieved by using diethylenetriamine. At the same time, the stability of both can be improved through the conjugation effect and steric effect between diethylenetriamine and 2,2,6,6 - tetramethylpiperidine. In this way, a relatively high CO2 capture efficiency can be realized, and during long - term operation, the degradation loss of amine catalysts can be reduced.

[0014] In b), by compounding 2 - amino - 2 - methyl - 1 - propanol and 1 - methyl - 4 - piperidinol in a mass ratio of 1:0.15 - 1.6, the intermolecular hydrogen - bond interaction formed between these two components can be utilized to reduce the volatilization loss of 2 - amino - 2 - methyl - 1 - propanol. At the same time, 1 - methyl - 4 - piperidinol can provide hydrogen protons for the reaction between 2 - amino - 2 - methyl - 1 - propanol and CO2, thereby improving the CO2 capture efficiency. In this way, 2 - amino - 2 - methyl - 1 - propanol and 1 - methyl - 4 - piperidinol can synergistically improve the CO2 capture efficiency and reduce the loss of amine catalysts during long - term operation.

[0020] Preferably, in step S1, the flow rates of the mixture of seawater and amine catalyst and ship exhaust gas introduced into the CO2 capture tower are 15 - 30 m 3 / h and 4000 - 6000 m 3 / h, the flow rate of the ship's exhaust gas in the CO2 capture tower is 1 - 3 m / s, and the residence time of the mixture of seawater and amine catalyst in the CO2 capture tower is 5 - 45 min (i.e., after being introduced into the CO2 capture tower, it stays for 5 - 45 min before being discharged); in step S2, the residence time of the mixed liquid I in the CO2 fixation reactor is 0 - 20 min (i.e., after being introduced into the CO2 fixation reactor, it stays for 0 - 20 min before being discharged); in step S3, the residence time of the mixed liquid II in the catalyst regenerator is 30 - 120 min (i.e., after being introduced into the catalyst regenerator, it stays for 30 - 120 min before being discharged).

[0021] Preferably, in step S3, after concentrating the mixed liquid III to an amine catalyst content of not less than 85 wt%, it is recycled to S1.

[0024] (2) By using the method and apparatus of the present invention, the captured CO2 can be fixed to form a solid-phase product, without the need to additionally set up CO2 compression, liquefaction devices, and CO2 storage tanks, thus reducing the floor area of the apparatus and the energy consumption of the apparatus.

[0025] (3) In the method and apparatus of the present invention, the regeneration of the amine catalyst is achieved by using Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ in seawater, which can reduce the energy consumption of catalyst regeneration. Description of the Drawings

[0070] Comparative Example 6 The carbon dioxide capture and fixation device for ship exhaust gas in this comparative example is the same as that in Example 1. Using this device, the carbon dioxide in the ship exhaust gas is captured and fixed, and the process is as Figure 1 shown. The specific steps are as follows: S1: Introduce seawater and 1-methyl-4-piperidinol (as an amine catalyst) into a mixing tank for mixing to obtain a seawater / 1-methyl-4-piperidinol mixture, where the content of 1-methyl-4-piperidinol is 30 wt%.

[0071] S2: Feed the seawater / 1-methyl-4-piperidinol mixture and the ship exhaust gas into the CO2 capture tower at the flow rates of 25 m 3 / h and 5000 m 3 / h respectively.

After concentrating the mixed liquid III to an amine catalyst content of 90 wt%, feed it into the mixing tank for reuse to realize the recycling of the amine catalyst.

[0074] Test Example 1: Performance comparison of different devices and methods In Example 1, Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, the test ship exhaust gases are the same, and the CO2 concentration in them is 4.5 mol%. The energy consumption, CO2 capture capacity, and the loss of absorbent or catalyst of each device and method are shown in Table 1, where: (1) The "CO2 capture rate" is the percentage of the amount of CO2 captured by the CO2 capture tower to the amount of CO2 in the inlet ship exhaust gas. The calculation formula is as follows: CO2 capture rate = (flue gas inlet flow rate × inlet CO2 concentration - decarbonized flue gas flow rate × outlet CO2 concentration) / (flue gas inlet flow rate × inlet CO2 concentration).

[0075] (2)The energy consumption for the absorbent regeneration in Example 1 is "0 - 0.5 GJ / ton CO2 (heating steam)", which means that heat preservation measures can be adopted, and the heat released by the CO2 absorption reaction is used to supply heat for the catalyst regeneration reaction. In this case, the energy consumption for the absorbent regeneration is 0, and no additional heat supply is required. Or heat preservation measures can be not adopted, and heating steam is used to supply heat for the catalyst regenerator. In this case, the energy consumption for the absorbent regeneration is 0.5 GJ / ton CO2 (heating steam).

[0076] (3)The absorbent loss in Comparative Example 2 is 1 kg / ton CO2 because: the theoretical reaction is that sodium hydroxide (absorbent) reacts with CO2 to form sodium carbonate, and the actual product is a mixture of sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate, that is, the product contains the absorbent, thus resulting in "absorbent loss".

[0077] Table 1 Performance comparison of different devices and methods

[0078] According to Table 1, it can be seen that: Compared with Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, in Example 1, the device and method of the present invention can effectively reduce the operation energy consumption of the whole device, and only an additional solid-phase product storage tank needs to be set, which has a smaller floor area compared with the CO2 compression, liquefaction storage tank and liquid-phase product storage tank. In addition, when the devices and methods of Comparative Example 1 and the present invention are adopted, the recycling regeneration of the absorbent or catalyst can be realized. During this process, the catalyst loss of the present invention is significantly lower than the absorbent loss in Comparative Example 1.

[0079] Test Example 2: Performance comparison of different amine catalysts In Examples 1 - 4 and Comparative Examples 3 - 6, the ship exhaust gas used in the tests is the same, and the CO2 concentration therein is 4.5 mol%. The CO2 capture capacity and the amine catalyst loss of each device and method are shown in Table 2, where the meaning and calculation formula of "CO2 capture rate" are the same as those in Table 1.

[0080] Table 2 Performance comparison of different amine catalysts

[0081] According to Table 2, it can be seen that: (1) Compared with Example 1 and Example 2, the loss of amine catalysts in Comparative Example 3 and Comparative Example 4 is relatively high, and the CO2 capture rate in Comparative Example 4 is relatively low. This indicates that a synergistic effect can be generated between diethylenetriamine and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, which can improve the stability of the amine catalyst while ensuring the CO2 capture ability and reduce its loss during long-term operation. The reason for this analysis is as follows: Among the above two components, diethylenetriamine can endow the amine catalyst with good CO2 capture ability, but its degradation loss is relatively high when used alone. Through the conjugation effect and steric effect between diethylenetriamine and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine, the stability of both can be improved.

[0082] (2) Compared with Example 3 and Example 4, the CO2 capture rate in Comparative Example 5 and Comparative Example 6 is relatively low, and the loss of amine catalysts is relatively high. This indicates that a synergistic effect can be generated between 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol and 1-methyl-4-piperidinol, which can improve the stability of the amine catalyst while ensuring the CO2 capture ability and reduce its loss during long-term operation. The reason for this analysis is as follows: 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol has good CO2 capture ability, but its volatilization loss is relatively high when used alone. When 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol is compounded with 1-methyl-4-piperidinol, the intermolecular hydrogen bond formed between the two can be utilized to reduce the volatilization loss of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol. At the same time, 1-methyl-4-piperidinol can provide hydrogen protons for the reaction between 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol and CO2, thereby improving the CO2 capture efficiency.
