Abstract

Chemical looping combustion (CLC), an in-situ carbon capture technology, has the potential to simultaneously achieve energy utilization and CO2 enrichment of blast furnace gas (BFG) from the iron and steel industry. The well-designed experiments in the lab-scale batch fixed bed reactor are conducted to study the influences of temperature, flow rate, and cycle number on the CLC performance of the air/oxygen blast furnace gas (ABFG/OBFG). The Cu-Fe bi-ore oxygen carriers are prepared on an industrial scale through extrusion-spheronization and hydroforming (labeled as OCM and OCC, respectively). Results indicate that H2 achieves a conversion of >95 % at any condition, while the CO conversion is sensitive to the temperature, e.g., from 69 % to 95 % with the temperature rising from 500 to 550 °C. The condition is then optimized as 600 °C and 100 mL/min in both ABFG and OBFG CLC tests. Under optimized conditions, the CO conversion and CO2 yield maintain beyond 95 %, and the deposited carbon selectivity is around 2 %. In the 20-cycle experiments, the combustion of BFG is gradually improved due to the activation of oxygen carrier, confirmed by the increase of specific surface area with the cycles. The two oxygen carriers demonstrate stable chemical compositions and physical structures, according to the results of XRD and SEM-EDS. The hydroforming-derived OCC exhibits a better reactivity than the extrusion-spheronization-derived OCM. This work supports the application of CLC to the energy recovery and CO2 capture from BFG.
钢铁工业高炉煤气的化学循环燃烧
化学环燃烧(CLC)是一种原位碳捕集技术,有可能同时实现钢铁工业高炉煤气(BFG)的能源利用和CO2富集。在实验室规模的间歇式固定床反应器上进行了精心设计的实验,研究了温度、流量和循环次数对空气/氧气高炉煤气(ABFG/OBFG) CLC性能的影响。通过挤压滚圆和液压成形(分别标记为OCM和OCC)在工业规模上制备了Cu-Fe双矿氧载体。结果表明,在任何条件下,H2的转化率均可达95%,而CO的转化率对温度敏感,温度从500℃升高到550℃,转化率从69%上升到95%。然后在ABFG和OBFG CLC测试中优化条件为600°C和100 mL/min。在优化条件下,CO转化率和CO2产率保持在95%以上,沉积碳选择性在2%左右。在20个循环的实验中,由于氧载体的活化,BFG的燃烧逐渐改善,比表面积随着循环次数的增加而增加。XRD和SEM-EDS分析结果表明,两种氧载体的化学组成和物理结构稳定。氢成型OCM的反应性优于挤压滚圆OCM。这项工作支持CLC在BFG能量回收和二氧化碳捕获中的应用。
