매체순환식 가스연소기 적용을 위한 Ni계 및 NiO계 산소공여입자의 반응특성
Reaction Characteristics of Ni and NiO Based Oxygen Carrier Particles for Chemical-Looping Combustor
매체순환식 가스연소기에 적용하기 위한 최적의 산소공여입자를 결정하기 위해 금속산화물(NiO)의 함량 변화에 따라 네가지(NiO 26, 44, 58, 78 wt%)의 산소공여입자를 제조하여 열중량 분석기에서 환원반응특성을 측정 및 비교하였다. 제조된 입자들 중에서 NiO 함량이 약 60 wt%인 입자가 산소전달능력 및 반응속도 면에서 다른 입자들에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타내었다. 산소공여입자의 제조과정에서 금속산화물 형태의 영향을 살펴보기 위해 금속산화물의 출발물질로 Ni과 NiO를 사용하여 NiO 함량이 동일한(약 60%) 두 종류의 입자를 제조하였으며 열중량 분석기와 고정층 반응기를 이용하여 반응속도, 재생성, 환원반응 유지시간 및 CO2 선택도 등을 측정 및 고찰하였다. 금속산화물의 출발물질로 NiO를 사용한 입자가 Ni을 사용한 입자에 비해 반복 실험시에 정상반응조건에 빨리 도달하였고 반응속도와 CO2 선택도가 높았으며 환원반응 유지시간이 길게 나타났다. 실험결과에 의해 본 연구에서 고려한 산소공여입자 중에서 금속산화물의 출발물질로 NiO를 사용한 NiO 함량이 60 wt%인 입자를 최적의 산소공여입자로 선정하였다.
To find a suitable oxygen carrier particle for chemical-looping combustor, four kinds of particles (NiO 26, 44, 58, 78 wt%) were prepared and the reactivity of the reduction was measured and investigated by a thermo-gravimetrical analyzer. From the viewpoint of oxygen transfer capacity and reaction rate, the particle containing 60 wt% of NiO showed better performance than the other particles. Also, we have prepared two kinds of oxygen carrier particles to investigate the effect of the starting material for a metal oxide component (i.e., Ni based and NiO based particles, where the weight percents of both samples were set at 60 wt% as NiO). The reaction rate, regenerative ability, duration of the reduction, and CO2 selectivity were measured and investigated by a thermo-gravimetrical analyzer and a fixed bed reactor. The results obtained here indicated that the NiO based oxygen carrier particle containing 60 wt% of NiO showed better regenerative ability, reaction rate, CO2 selectivity, and duration of the reduction, compared with the other particles, therefore we selected this particle as an optimum oxygen carrier particle.
