Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of ammonia synthesis, and in particular to a nitrogen-carrying body composition for chemical chain ammonia synthesis, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ammonia is not only an important chemical product and the main raw material of nitrogen fertilizer, but also has been given new meanings such as "energy carrier" and "hydrogen carrier", and its important position in the chemical and energy industries is becoming increasingly prominent. At present, there are two main catalysts for industrial ammonia synthesis: iron-based and improved ruthenium-based. Iron-based catalysts have the advantages of high activity, long life and relatively low cost, but they have the following disadvantages: (1) relatively harsh reaction conditions, reaction temperature 300-550℃, reaction pressure 15.0-32.0MPa; (2) high energy consumption, consuming 1-2% of the world's total energy annually; (3) heavy pollution, CO2 emissions account for more than 2.0% of global CO2 emissions annually; (4) high equipment requirements and large investment. The main features of improved precious metal ruthenium-based catalysts are high activity, high ammonia concentration and wide H2 / N2 range, and they can operate at low temperature (430℃) and low pressure (9.5-10.5MPa). However, ruthenium-based catalysts are expensive and easy to deactivate, which limits their large-scale industrial application. Therefore, designing and developing new non-precious metal-based high-performance catalysts and realizing ammonia synthesis under mild conditions has become one of the most challenging research topics.

[0003] Chemical chaining ammonia synthesis technology, as one of the possible solutions for achieving "green" ammonia synthesis, splits the traditional ammonia synthesis process into two steps: nitridation and ammonia synthesis. Ammonia synthesis is completed by transferring nitrogen and heat between the two reactions using a nitrogen carrier. Compared with the catalytic ammonia synthesis process, the chemical chaining process has the following characteristics: (1) It can be operated under normal pressure conditions and has a simple process flow; (2) It can be used for distributed and small-scale ammonia production, and is easy to synthesize "green ammonia" by electrolyzing water to produce hydrogen in areas with abundant wind power and solar energy; (3) Due to the formation of stable nitrides and oxides, it is easy to start and stop the process and is easy to couple with renewable energy; (4) The reactants, temperature, pressure, etc. of each step, such as nitridation and ammonia synthesis, can be optimized separately. It is considered to be a new ammonia synthesis technology with high efficiency, low energy consumption, and environmental friendliness.

[0004] Chinese patent document CN202011284388.4 discloses a method for simultaneously producing ammonia and synthesis gas using chemical looping technology. The method comprises the following steps: reacting a composite metal oxygen carrier, nitrogen, and a carbon reducing agent to form a nitrogen fixation reaction to produce metal nitrides, metal oxides, and CO; and reacting the metal nitrides and metal oxides with water vapor to produce ammonia and H2, while also producing the composite metal oxygen carrier. This invention synthesizes ammonia under normal pressure and mild conditions, while simultaneously producing CO and H2 in separate steps throughout the cycle. The composite metal oxygen carrier has the molecular formula AxByOz, where A is a main group IA, IIA, or IIIA element, and B is a transition metal element, with x = 1-3, y = 1-5, and z = 2-4. The main group IA, IIA, or IIIA elements are selected from one or more of Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, and Al. The transition metal element is selected from one or more of La, V, Ce, Ti, Zn, Cu, Co, Cr, Ce, Ni, Fe, Mn, W, Tc or Yb.

[0005] Chinese patent document CN202210348758.9 discloses a supported molybdenum-based nitrogen carrier suitable for chemical chain ammonia synthesis and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing hexamethylenetetramine, molybdate, ammonia water, and ZSM-5 molecular sieve, and filtering to obtain a white precipitate; drying the white precipitate and grinding it to obtain a supported precursor; pyrolyzing the supported precursor under protective atmosphere conditions and cooling it to obtain a supported molybdenum-based nitrogen carrier suitable for chemical chain ammonia synthesis.

[0006] Chinese patent document CN201811079936.2 discloses a chemical chaining method for producing ammonia using an iron-based oxygen carrier. This method achieves continuous and stable ammonia production through the redox reaction of the iron-based oxygen carrier. The method consists of three stages: 1) the oxygen carrier hydrolysis stage, in which water vapor is used in a hydrolysis reactor to hydrolyze iron nitride to produce high-purity ammonia and simultaneously generate iron oxide; 2) the oxygen carrier oxidation stage, in which the iron oxide generated after the hydrolysis reaction enters an air reactor and is further oxidized by air into high-valent Fe2O3 and oxygen-deficient nitrogen; and 3) the oxygen carrier reduction stage, in which nitrogen and coke are used to reduce the iron oxide to iron nitride, simultaneously generating CO or CO2 gas. This method uses water vapor, coke, and nitrogen as raw materials to produce high-quality ammonia while also producing CO gas as a byproduct.
