This invention relates to the field of chemical loop
hydrogen production technology from semi-
coke tail gas, particularly to a multi-zone coupled internal circulation
fluidized bed reactor, a semi-
coke tail gas
hydrogen production
system and method. By incorporating three inclined trays within the reactor body, the reactor is divided into an air complete re-
oxidation zone, a semi-
coke tail gas reduction zone, and a steam oxidation
hydrogen production zone. A riser is added to increase the steam-lifted secondary
oxidation zone, achieving multi-zone
coupling within the same reactor. The semi-coke tail gas reduction zone reduces the
oxygen carrier; the steam oxidation
hydrogen production zone oxidizes the reduced
oxygen carrier to produce hydrogen; the steam-lifted secondary
oxidation zone supplements the unreacted
oxygen carrier with oxidation and fluidizes it to the air complete re-oxidation zone; and the air complete re-oxidation zone recycles the oxygen carrier, achieving continuous
hydrogen production from semi-coke tail gas through chemical looping. This solves the problems of difficult particle-ordered circulation control, insufficient
contact time between oxygen carrier particles and the
gas phase, and difficulty in continuous and stable
hydrogen production in existing semi-coke tail gas chemical loop hydrogen production methods.
