Background technology
The electrolysis of coal utilizes technology approximately from twentieth century mid-term, just to have report, but because efficiency is low Arrested Development.Until Cougmin in 1979 and Famoq have delivered after the article of coal electrolyzing hydrogen manufacturing on the magazines such as Nature, the research of this respect just has large development. in the acidic medium that he proposes, the method for electrolyzing coal slurry liquid hydrogen making belongs to electrochemistry hydrogen manufacturing.He finds that the bath voltage of electrolyzing coal slurry liquid hydrogen manufacturing is only half of water electrolysis hydrogen production bath voltage, has greatly reduced the energy consumption of whole process in acidic medium.
1985, the people such as Lalvanl adopted first three-electrode system and control potentiometry and studied the anodic oxidation of U.S. NorthDakota brown coal in NaOH solution, and the anode that they use is Pt electrode.The electrolysate of anolyte compartment mainly contains humic acids, CO
2with a small amount of O
2, cathode compartment produces H
2.Under different anode potentials, carry out electrolysis, find that humic acids and water-soluble carboxylic acid's yield are the highest, under the experiment condition adopting at them when anode potential is 2.7V (SCE), cathode hydrogen evolution current efficiency is 80%-90%, and the transformation efficiency of brown coal reaches 50%.
Nineteen eighty-two park etc. is studied the oxidation mechanism of coal, and they think that coal electrolyzing oxidation and the impurity F e ion in charcoal have very large relation, Fe
3+by chemical reaction, carbon is oxidized.The related researcher of Ohio State University since 2004 headed by Botte professor is doing a large amount of research work aspect coal slurry electrolysis feasibility, obtained good achievement, made this research topic of coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production in practicalization, stride forward major step.Major objective is agreed to subsidize for the project of the novel coal electrolyzing device for producing hydrogen of design in November, 2004 U.S. Edison material technology center (Edison Materials Technology Center (EMTEC)).The hydrogen that this device produces finally can be for the fuel cell operation of 5 kilowatts a year.
Within 2006, Botte study group is at solution Fe
3+/ Fe
2+effect under, obtained when decomposition voltage 1.1V, produce hydrogen speed and can reach 18mL/hcm
2achievement.
Electrochemical method utilizes coal resources, and makes hydrogen simultaneously, and this technology meets the energy development strategy of China very much.Because electrochemical method utilizes coal technology, not only coal can be converted into methane, ethene, ethane, carboxylic acid, the useful Chemicals such as humic acid, but also can obtain high-purity hydrogen, especially along with the development of fuel cell electric vehicle, for Hydrogen Energy utilization provides space widely.
Research and develop highly active catalysis electrode and be coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production the key issue that must solve, the anodic reaction of coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production is actually depolarize reaction, play reduction anode potential, reduce the effect that coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production reacts required impressed voltage, to seek to develop highly active anode-catalyzed electrode, reduce anode overpotential, accelerate anodic reaction speed, improving electrolytic reaction electric current is the practical key issue of coal slurry electrolytic reaction.Up to the present, coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production mainly contains following a few class with catalyticing anode: (1) pure Pt sheet or Pt net electrode used in traditional coal electrolyzing process.(2) Pt of doping certain proportion Ru, Ir metallic element is binary metal alloy electrode.(3) Pt that carbon cloth is matrix is precious metal catalyst electrode.The electrolyte solution of coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production is sulfuric acid, so the anode of using as coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production is except possessing the most basic requirement of electrolytic anode material, also has harsher requirement, above-mentioned various types of electrodes all can not thoroughly meet the requirement of the anode material of coal slurry electrolytic hydrogen production, and be all to take precious metal as main raw material, expensive, from practical, still have very large gap.
Hydrogen Energy as a kind of cleaning, efficient, can store and the reproducible energy is with a wide range of applications, hydrogen manufacturing is compared with coal high-temperature gasification, and the needed processing unit of hydrogen by electrolyzing coal slurry is simple, mild condition, thereby also can greatly reduce hydrogen manufacturing cost, and technological process easy handling.Employing has the nano-TiO of high catalytic activity and stability
