Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of photothermal catalysis, and particularly relates to a photothermal catalytic reactor. Background Art
[0002] During industrial production, VOCs gases are often generated. VOCs refer to an organic substance and are an important part of air pollution. It can not only directly harm the ecological environment and human body, but also generate new pollutants through reactions. It is usually divided into several categories such as non-methane hydrocarbons (abbreviated as NMHCs), oxygen-containing organic compounds, halogenated hydrocarbons, nitrogen-containing organic compounds, sulfur-containing organic compounds, etc. VOCs participate in the formation of ozone and secondary aerosols in the atmospheric environment, and have an important impact on regional atmospheric ozone pollution and PM2.5 pollution. Most VOCs have special odors that are unpleasant and have toxicity, irritation, teratogenicity and carcinogenic effects. In particular, benzene, toluene and formaldehyde etc. will cause great harm to human health. VOCs are important precursors of urban haze and photochemical smog, and mainly come from processes such as coal chemical industry, petrochemical industry, fuel coating manufacturing, solvent manufacturing and use. The existing purification effect of VOCs gases is poor, and a photothermal catalytic reactor is often used for purification treatment. However, the existing photothermal catalytic reactor has a relatively single function, cannot increase the light intensity, cannot make VOCs gases catalyze faster and more thoroughly under the action of the catalyst, cannot improve the catalytic efficiency and quality of VOCs gases, and is not convenient for people to operate and use. Therefore, a VOCs photothermal catalytic reactor is provided. Under the existing technology of the photothermal catalytic reactor, the solid catalyst is mixed with gaseous and liquid reactants in the photothermal catalytic reactor for photothermal catalytic reaction. The uneven mixing of the solid catalyst and the gaseous reactant affects the reaction efficiency, and also affects the research conclusion on the fragmentation effect. There is an urgent need for a new type of reactor to solve this problem. Summary of the Utility Model
